Reading with Aunt Heather

With Sammy counting it goes, "Two! Two! Two!" His favorite number, after all...

Well, he's kind of got it...

A Smaller Wagon...

"Sammy! Get out!"

"Dude! Where's my ride?"

Pumpkin Patch

Remember this?

Apple Picking!

In early October, we went apple-picking with Uncle Rob, Aunt Heather, and cousin David!

Apple Picking 2

We ran out of apples, so everyone agreed we needed to go apple picking again!

Sammy's First Wedding!

Corn Maze

Sammy doesn't seem so sure of Daddy's directions...

Observing Daddy being a fool on a "bull"

Watching rabbits. This was probably inappropriate for Sam.

Lost in another maze!

Sammy's very first animatronic jug band!

Fun in the Leaves!

13 and 14 Months Old!

Since I missed September, here are Sammy's 13 and 14 month photos. Sammy's learned a lot in the past couple months!

Accomplishments and Milestones:
-Started taking steps in September, decided he was ready to walk in mid-October and has done so consistently since
-Says "Please!" pretty consistently
-Can repeat most words if you ask him to
-Can kick a ball
-Can form short sentences "Water please?"
-Can repeat every letter in his alphabet book and sometimes recognizes a few
-Recognizes red and blue
-"Counts" by saying "Two! Two! Two!" and pointing at things
-Hugs and kisses spontaneously, and gives them on request
-When he hurts someone he crunches his face up, makes sympathetic noises, and tries to give hugs and kisses
-Knows the cow says "moo," the horse says "neigh," the sheep says "baa," and the stock market goes "crash"

He currently wears size 18 months, though 12 months fits his waist its just too short! His favorite books are Brown Bear (which he says "brown brown"), an alphabet book we have, Goodnight Moon, A Monkey Counting Book, In A People House, and Knufflebunny.
