TOUCHDOWN!!

Is it normal to have a child and take over 800 pictures of the kid in the first month of his life? The thing that cracks me up the most is that EVERY PICTURE IS THE SAME! I mean, let's be realistic here...he spends 95% of the time sleeping and the rest eating. So, chances are, his eyes are closed in any picture we take...Sambo, Gary and I ventured out this morning for the first run since well...just before Sam was born. Whew, I've got a long way to go! But I sure did enjoy it. Except for the part where I tripped on the sidewalk and totally fell and rolled...kind of embarrassing.

Any of you who have read way back on this blog might remember this post well...it's complete what a year and a half later?
And here's a close-up of the cutest part!

Cute pictures! It is funny all the pictures we take. I went back through to compile the pictures into a photo book and was laughing because she looks the same in all of them, but you still save them and can't bear to delete them! oh man.

Good for you for running! I vow to move to a more outdoor-friendly climate. This winter is killing me. It does every year...

No way are you a cute mom with a jogging stroller. I love it. He's so cute. So proud of you for making the journey to get back on the pavement. Miss you friend.

Sorry to hear you fell while you were running. How come there's no picture of that? Ha ha, just kidding. Maybe it's some leftover pregnancy clumbsiness. He is so cute. Can't wait to see him in another month!

Cutest little thing ever!

P.S.- We have like thousands of pictures of Mikayla during her first year of life. I'm glad you have joined the ranks of proud and obsessed mommy!

He is so stinkin adorable! I think he looks like a mini Gary. I am so jealous you can go on runs outside. If only I lived somewhere warm.

Love your blanket, please don't tell me you quilted it yourself! Your little man is so darling, hope you are doing well (and getting a little sleep).

Well you did marry into the Fears family. I guess Bob has taught you well. I think one night when we went to eat out with Bob and Peggy he took 75 pictures just from dinner. Sam sure does look just like Gary. Glad you are all doing well. Can't wait for you to come to Kentucky for a visit and we can see him.
