First year recap

One year in the books and the doctor says Sam looks great. Although, he was quick to add, "He probably won't be in the NBA." However, with that head size, maybe an MBA is possible.

Height: 29.25 in (15%)

Weight: 19 lbs 4 oz (15%)

Head: 46.9 cm (80%)

And by request, a few belated photos of Sam's belated first birthday celebration. 

We had presents... and more importantly, packaging. 

There were hats. 

An Elmo cupcake. Yeah, you are #1, buddy.

And then Elmo's face was gone.

Then pretty much all of the Elmo cupcake was gone. 

Eating! Sam's favorite part. 

And observing was Max's favorite part.

Happy First Birthday, Sam Otis!

It's been a wonderful 12 months filled with smiles, squawks, food, food, and more food, crawling, scooting, some sleepless nights, but most of all joy. We can't wait to see what the next year and beyond brings for our adorable little guy.

One year ago

A year ago today I took my then two kids, Max and Winnie, to the park to go swim around in the leaves. We came home and Max watched Star Wars for the first time. From there, I was getting ready to go for a run and then go to the Husky game that evening when Elisa's water broke around 4 in the afternoon.

A little less than 24 hours we welcomed Sam into our lives and the daily adventures have continued every day since with our two little Jedis.
