Sam's first 3 weeks

The first three weeks of Sam's life have been busy and so much fun!

Week 1 - Sam got to cuddle with Mommy and Daddy on his own!  Madeline and Henry stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Schwartz for 4 days and then with Grandma and Grandpa Knutson for 5 days.  They had a great time with their grandparents, and I think they were so disappointed to be back to the grind with us.   We were so grateful for the 1-1 time with Sam!

Week 2 - Grandma Rita visited us from Indiana, and stayed with us for a week.  She kept Madeline and Henry busy with trips to the pool, the maze, and the park.  She had a great idea to throw a Green Eggs and Ham breakfast party, in honor of Sam (who is the main character in that Dr. Seuss book. )  My mom always is a HUGE HELP whenever she visits - laundry, grocery shopping, more laundry, ironing, cleaning, cooking.  I was so sad to see her go....

Week 3 - My sisters and their families visited us.  Between the three of us girls, we have 6 kids - and all are ages 5 and under.  It was a busy week, and we didn't really do too much during our visit.  Just played with the kids and went to the candy shop.

So, how is Sam doing?  He is a GREAT eater, and always wants to eat every 2 hours or so (even in the middle of the night.)  But overall, everything seems pretty textbook with this little guy, and we're grateful for that.
