Latest and Greatest

In the past four days, Sam's done a lot of fun things. Over the weekend it was helping Daddy in the yard with getting grass to start growing where the carport used to be. Tonight it was stopping at the beach during one of the lowest tides of the year to play in the sand, chase some birds, and toss rocks into the water.

But before we get to that, here are a few vids. Note: the baseball video is from April 19, the rest are more recent.

Another Trip to Alki Beach

The weather was so splendid today that when we got home, we had to take Sam to Alki Beach for some more fun in the sand. And that meant Dad took a bunch of photos...and tabbed a mere 12 for view by the general public. Here they are in all their sunny delightfulnessity.

Look who's smilin'

We're happy to report that despite our best efforts, Sam won't slow down or take "no" for an answer.  He's continuing to explore and try new things, while maintaining his great attitude and winning smile.  This newest installment brings some photos of Colin's (Sam's friend) birthday, though Colin is nowhere to be found...Also is a Sunday trip to Alki Beach, where we're in the midst of the lowest tides of the year.  

Check it out.
