Man! Can you believe the five weeks I've had? These folks are STRANGE! :-)
Well, we can't believe five weeks has past already. It just doesn't seem possible. Little britches had a check up today. He looks great! He weighs 9 lbs. even. That is 1 lb. and 11 oz. in the last two weeks. Can't ask for much better than that.
Samuel is sleeping better, not great, but better. We manage about 4 to 5 uninterrupted hours most nights. (emphasis on most nights!) :-) We are managing that. He has a great disposition. He is such a sweet little snuggle bug. Carrie always wanted a snuggle bug, Zachary was a great baby, but not much of a snuggler. Samuel will snuggle for hours on end, she is eating it up! Of course, that is also creating quite the spoiled little monster! Dad and Bubba have had nothing to do with spoiling him, of course! :-) His temper continues to reach epic proportions. This kid can flat throw a tantrum. He doesn't do it often, only when you change him or you let him get unhappy for a little too long, like not feeding him. He'll give you warning, but then look out! :-)
Our routine continues to become a work in progress. Sometimes it is tough juggling phone calls for the business and a fussing little one. Carrie is a much better multi-tasker than I am. We have been keeping my 2 year old niece a couple of days a week and will start keeping her full-time during the day soon. We've been doing a lot of extra things to make ends meet, but God has been providing. We don't have a lot of options with my health spiraling as it has lately. We have no fear, God is faithful.
Here are a few more pictures. Look at the two with my Dad, Zachary and myself. The first one was taken last week at the Rangers / Astros game. The second one was taken of the three of us last year in June at the Rangers / Astros game. Other than the two strikingly handsome older gentlemen in the pictures, check out how much Zachary has grown in a year! Couldn't believe it when we put those pictures side by side! He is such a young man now, not a boy anymore, and a fine young man he is becoming.
My Dad, Zachary, and yours' truly May 2008
My Dad, Zachary, and Me again June 2007
The original Three Amigos at the ballgame.
(notice how much taller Zachary is than Carrie!) :-)
(Samuel stayed with my sister-in-law K.D. and his cousin Jaden for the evening)
This Granny lady is pretty great!
Daddy, why are you so soft?

Glad to hear the baby is doing so good. Couldn't believe how much Zack has grown in a year's time until I saw the pic. Continue to enjoy the pics and comments...keep it up!
