Then this little one turned two.

Today, two years ago, little Sam joined our family. Actually, he wasn't little. 9 lbs 2 oz and 21 inches long. Every nurse that came into check on us always exclaimed "Well, he's a BIG one isn't he!".

Ryan was so very proud of us. He loved Sammy's crazy toes! He took pictures of them in the nursery and kept tickling them and laughing to himself.

And Papa and Grandma bought Sam a stuffed dog because he had the furrowed brow just like Sam's. And they laughed and laughed feeling quite pleased with their cleverness.

And the kids were excited to meet him too.

And after two years, he is still loved, he is still fat, Ryan is still proud of him, Papa and Grandma still laugh over him and the kids still get excited over him.

Happy Birthday my Samalicious!

Watch me grow and grow and grow! I've got style!
