Sam had a GREAT birthday!! Daddy woke up early to make him special birthday "
pantakes"!! We had our families over to celebrate that evening with a "hoops" theme basketball party!!! (for those that don't, Sam can take some serious reps on his Little T
ikes goal!!)
We got Sam his first "real" golf club!!! and OH MY how he begs to go "
ou-tide" (outside) to hit his "cub" (club) because he just wants to "sing" (swing) it!

Check out that cousin of Sam's with purple hair!!!! Sam LOVES him some "buttons" (
Backyardigans)!

Sam did not know what to do with all the singing...Serious Sam set in and he did NOT crack a smile the whole time!!


We tried to get him to dig in, but we might possibly be parents to the ONLY 2 year old who hates to be dirty!!!! He would not go in for the kill...we eventually had to get him a fork!!!

Look at the great cake that Amy W.'s mother-in-law made!!! (Jane's website is on Amy's blog)!!!!

We had a great day with our BIG boy!!!! But remember how I joked about us celebrating in the hospital...well...it almost happened!!! Sorry boys but once again...girls I know you would want to know....I had contractions all night Thursday, nothing painful, but enough to keep me up all night!! I continued to have some contractions during the
inservice and by the time I got to the doctor's office and hooked up for my non-stress test they were coming every 6 min!!! The nurse kept saying, "oh, that's a big one" and of course I was barely feeling ANYTHING and then she said, "looks like someone is having a baby tonight"! When the doctor checked me, I was still 2cm and 50 percent and because she knew I was having Sam's party she said to go home and rest (or I might not make it through the party) and to call when they were regular at 6 min. apart! She even went as far as to get the on-
call doctors name and laughed when I checked the time for my Monday appointment "just in case"!!! Well needless to say I went home, had a great time at the party, ....and the contractions STOPPED!! I had maybe 4 all night!!! Here I sit Sat. evening, and while I still have contractions, they are not regular and not
painful. I even tried the whole walking and eating Mexican thing...still nothing! So I went from a nurse saying I was in labor and going to have a baby that night to sitting on my couch TWO days later...in the middle of our first real SNOW!!!! We are supposed to have 2 more inches
(edited to note, they now say 3-6 inches!) by Sunday night so this whole labor thing could get REALLY interesting!! Pray that everything goes smoothly, Charley is healthy and my nerves will rest!!
