New shoes, an old sweater, and continued silliness

In the past two weeks Sam has done his best to give up crawling since his walking has gotten a lot better.  He's back in music class and is learning the new songs...still dancing to the beat.  He's started carrying his drum while walking, which makes us think he may want to be in a marching  band someday.

He got his first pair of real shoes today and has already become proficient at untying them, but hasn't mastered standing up in them yet.

Preparations are well underway for his birthday party, which will include his first dose of sugary cake.  Do you have a prediction?

The little guy got a hold of a hunk of bread for some munchin'.

After a bath, got got away wearing the towel and made it into the kitchen.

Hi there, was the door shut for a reason?

While the dads watched football, the kids jumped in a crib.  

And they were so cute they got a 2nd photo.

Must...have...more...pear.

Wearing Mom's old sweater, cooooool.

And giving us looks like this...

Hopefully we'll get some marching band footage of drummer Sam soon.  A rum pa pum pum.

At Nordstrom's to get his first pair of walking shoes.

He had to practice to figure out the right pair to get. 

...but had to stop and see the fish.

And wanted to play with the balloon.
