My little brother

Tommy is really getting around and Sam is able to be a little rougher with him, which really suits Sam. Sam's been a great big brother, making sure that Tommy doesn't get any smaller toys by putting them out of his reach, alerting me if he is close to any wires, and entertaining him if Tommy gets bored (the tackles, hair pulling, squeezing are there too, don't worry). Sam recently said that he likes having a "big family".

Chicken BBQ

Here's a family picture from the BBQ. So nice that we all could be there and spend some time with our extended family. The lady in red is Sam and Tommy's great grandmother, and my grandmother. Sam calls her Mom Mom V and sometimes we shorten it to "V". She's a really good sport, gets around well, and loves to spend time with her great grandchildren. Love you Mom Mom V!

Grandma............

So, I think it's clear that I am a little backed up with my posts.......
Happy Birthday Grandma, August 11th. We had a wonderful time spending the weekend with you!

The Shore

Sam and Tommy had a wonderful time at the shore for the weekend with their cousins. It was very nice to spend time with our family!
