Sam Update

So, I figured I would start a blog so that everyone can keep up with Sam and I.
Let's see... Sam had his 9 month appointment this week. He is 22lbs, 30 inches long, top 94% for his height, top 75% for his weight and top 90% for his big 'ol head. The Dr finally gave me something useful for his eczema. Apparently there is a difference between an outbreak and a flare up (an outbreak is the scaly skin and a flare up is the open wound looking bit). Now, 3 times a day we have to mix a steroid and a topical cream together and put it on his spots. The Dr said it would only take about a week for him to heal. If not, back to the Dr.
Sam said "grog" this week when the dog came up to him. He has also been trying to say diaper. He can say mom mom,mama, dada and baba but he doesn't know what they mean. He defiantly doesn't associate mama or mom mom with me yet.
I'm so blessed to have such a happy baby. He sat straight up the other morning and just started clapping. He was laughing and just really excited. lol. Sometimes he will laugh in his sleep. I don't know what's funny, but he just giggles until he falls back to sleep. Crazy kid.
I have tried to start planning his 1st birthday party but the amount of people I would have to invite is insane. 78 people! I guess I don't have to invite them all but those are all the people I feel obligated to invite. Ugh. I can't do it. I guess we are just going to make a cake at home and not have a party.
Anyhow, back to work for me. I'll try to remember to update this often cause I know I don't email most of you as often as I should.
