Valentine Fun!

Grams got Alex a special Valentine. The fish's lips were chocolate!
It sure didn't take the boy long to get the Valentine open and eat the entire piece of chocolate! Have I mentioned before how much he loves chocolate? I have some great oreo eating pics to post later!!
Sam got to wear his special Valentine shirt from his Aunt Jen. It said "I have the hots for you!" Too cute. Actually, everyone in the house got Valentines yesterday: Mom got 2 cards in the mail from Dad, and Ryan brought me pink roses and we went out for ice cream in the evening (oh I got him his favorite Reeces Peanut Butter Cups). No terribly fancy celebrations around here, but we were all glad to be remembered by those we love!!
Sam is growing like a weed. He is already 9lbs. 4oz. and 21in. He is starting to sleep better at night--I got a full 4 hours out of him last night!! We both had our 2 week check-ups this week and got doctors' approvals with flying colors. The poor little guy's big hang-up right now is a very congested nose. We are having to give him saline drops in his nose and suction it out--yeah, that goes over well!! But it is helping, and he seems more comfortable because of it. Alex has actually started looking at Sam a few times a day, acknowledging his presence at least, and it's a start!

Valentines day at the Coons sounds fun. Sorry I missed it. Alex looks so cute in the top photo and Sammy looks older in the bottom photo. And Grams is looking mighty fine too!!!!!
Love,
