Sam is now weighing in at 15.7 lbs as of last week so I'm sure he has reach almost 16 lbs and is thriving. He has also grown over 3.5 inches since he was born. Simply amazing! So far his cardiologist has said that his murmur is closing and shows signs of being a healthy boy! We go back at 6 months to do another echo cardiogram. I find his personality to be quite serious, however he did just have his first laugh. One of the best things about life are baby laughs! Gotta love those gummy smiles! Sam is getting out and about with us quite frequently starting to lose his hair a little and talks quite a bit when he is the only one in the house. Eli is really embracing his new role as a big brother and snuggles, shares toys, and occasionally picks on him. They wouldn't be brothers if he didn't right? We are finally finishing the initial first meets with friends and local family. Takes a little longer with the second one since we got two kids to handle and usually the older one needs the attention. Eli has scored with tons of gifts on the birth of his new brother. I dont' think the newness has wore off yet. One of the gifts Eli received was a doctor kit and his new thing lately is to take baby Sam's temperature, give him shots, check his ears and bandage him up. Simply adorable!
