21 months!

Samuel is 21 months today!

He is such a sweet little guy who creates many bright spots in our days.  As Grandma says, he does everything "with gusto!"  He loves to laugh, play with his bigger siblings, hold baby brother's hand, and cuddle with Mom and Dad.  Much of the time he runs rather than walks.  One of the few times he's still during the day is when he sits and quietly looks at books.  We are glad for this new favorite activity!  
Though he seems huge compared to Lucas, he reminds us at times that he is still "little" too... (though he is getting pretty good at showing his desire for independence).    

 I just love the look on his face in the picture below as he makes his bear and dog kiss~
