This actually happened last Tuesday, January 13th (for the baby book), but I haven't had any blogging time this past week. Sam actually is standing independently now. He just sort of did it all of a sudden, which makes me think he probably could have done it sooner if I'd made him try. I'm sure the Botox last month helped make this possible. We are so proud of you Sam!

Daddy’s home!!
This is a belated post. He’s been home for almost two weeks, but I thought these reunion pictures were precious. The boys have been hanging on him non-stop.
CTR
The boys both got CTR rings at church on the first Sunday of the year. (CTR stands for “Choose the Right”). They were both so proud of their rings, especially Sam. He also got an "I am a Child of God" crown, which he proudly wore all day announcing to anyone within earshot: "I'm a king! I have a ring!" He graduated from nursery this Sunday and joined the big kids in Primary. I still can’t believe he’s old enough for that!
Dare Devil
Sam had Botox injections the day after Christmas to help relax some of his tightest muscles. This is a video I took of him a week or so ago doing something he couldn't have done before the injections. He came up with this game on his own and kept at it for quite a while. Within days of the injections, he is more agile, and more confident physically. It's really amazing.

Sam's ABCs
Sam used to sing the ABCs with about seven letters: ABCDXYZ. Very efficient. Now, thanks to the LeapFrog refrigerator alphabet toy, well, watch and see...
Bowling
We took cousin JJ bowling with us last week. The boys had a lots of fun. I the picture below of Ben and JJ, and Ben was upsted because he didn't get to hold the ball. Then we took one of him with the ball and he was happy. Drama!
