Samuel's First Trip to SC

Last week the three of us made the trip to SC. Samuel was able to meet "B" for the first time. He loved being rocked on the back porch.

The weekend even included a great cookout. Samuel had a blast meeting all of his mom and dad's friends. He now has more "Aunts and Uncles" than he can count. Hope to see all of you again soon!!!!!!

4 Weeks Old

Samuel was 4 weeks old Monday. I can not believe how big he is getting. He is staying awake more during the day and he interacts with us more. He enjoys being read to and listening to music.

We Have A Clemson Tiger On Our Hands

Thanks to our good friends back home Samuel now has his first Clemson outfit. He cant wait for the first game!! Go Tigers!

Now I have two Clemson fans!!!!!

I had to add one for all of the USC fans! Thanks to Aunt Jill Samuel had this outfit on one night when John got home from work!!!!!!!!!!!! Must I say he was not too happy.

2 Week Old Pictures

I can not believe how much Samuel has changed over the last two weeks. It will be interesting to go to the doctor to see how much he has grown!

Where Is My Mind?

I had a follow up doctor's appointment this week to check my blood pressure. I checked the appointment card Sunday night to make sure I had the correct time. I had to be in Athens at 8:45 Monday morning. Sunday night I got the diaper bag ready, car seat out, and I got out my clothes and Samuel's clothes. I got up bright and early to make sure we had plenty of time. Monday morning came and I was able to shower, dress, dress Samuel, feed Samuel, pump, and redress Samuel. I was so proud of myself because when I got in the car I was only running 5 minutes late. I pulled into the parking lot of the doctor's office at 8:40. Keep in mind I was still feeling very proud of myself. Mom and I got out and carried Samuel into the office. I signed in on the clipboard and had a seat. I was sitting in the chair thinking I might be able to handle this parent thing when I heard this sweet little voice call my name. I walked back up to window and the sweet little girl said,"Mrs. Hunt we have you scheduled for tomorrow morning at 8:45." I was so embarrassed. Thankfully, the doctor went ahead and saw me on Monday so I did not have to come back. Needless to say, when I checked the card Sunday night I never looked at the date.

The good news is that my blood pressure was finally back down!

First Bath

John has made himself in charge of bath time. This is fine with me because I do not like to make him cry. I get to be the assistant. John really does a great job with Samuel. I could not ask for a better Dad for my son.

First Trip to the Doctor

We had to take Samuel to the doctor on Thrusday. He got a clean bill of health. In fact, the doctor said he was a boring healthy baby. We are so thankful!

First Night Home

This picture was taken this first night we were home. He slept all day until we put him in the craddle. As you can see, his eyes opened wide and he began to cry. He was up every 2 hours either eating or crying.

Coming Home From the Hospital

This picture was taken right before we left the hospital. I just love his outfit. I cant wait to dress him up in it again!

Like Father Like Son

This picture was taken the second night in the hospital. John and I were both VERY tired.
