UK football and the Bengals

This past week UK football became bowl-eligible and the Bengals swept the hated Steelers. Coincidence? I don't think so. Sam continues to bring excellent luck to all of our sports teams. Up next is the UK basketball team where Sam is sure to continue working his magic!

Sam did a great job keeping his dad company while catching up on the latest in infectious diseases.

Sam is getting stronger every week.

Cheyenne has absolutely been wonderful. She doesn't seem to mind Sam at all and this week actually licked his head.

Sam has some curl in his hair - especially right after his bath.

Grandpas and Grandmas got to see Sam play under his Jungle this week.

Grandma Pat tried her best to get Sam to sleep. It worked for a while.

Grandpa Terry and Sam look good in their matching t-shirts.

Dad is absolutely ecstatic after the Bengal win over the Steelers. As you can see Sam got so excited that he passed out.

The Growth Spurt

Sam continues to grow quickly and Mom and Dad are convinced that he has hit his 6 week growth spurt. He is smiling more often and continues to be a fantastic baby.

Sam the Monkey

Sam was a monkey for his first Halloween although we didn't actually leave the house. We did buy candy and put it in a bowl outside for the kids this year only to have the kids steal our bowl and candy. Sam had a very good weekend getting to watch plenty of football and even had a visit by Grandma Billie on Friday and Grandpa Dennis and Grandma Pat on Saturday.

Grandpa Dennis came down to see Sam. He took a nap on his lap.

Sam started out Halloween day in the shirt his grandma gave him but he quickly transformed into...

Monkey Man!

Sam even got to see Grandpa Terry get upset after a UK turnover on national TV
