sam goes with me every tuesday and thursday when i work out.
he has since he was 1.
my trainer, tom, and partners in crime, julia & kate, have watched my boy grow up.
sam considers them his friends and brought them birthday cake today.
we also stopped by daddy's office and shared much bigger pieces of cake with uncle richie, tony, and gimmy(jimmy) some of sam's other closest friends.
he is definately in his element around "his" friends and has no problem holding his own.
3 year olds...who needs 'em!

he will not look at the camera.
with his eyes that is.
he will turn his face towards me but not his eyes.
"i am mommy", he says with his eyes looking out the other window.
just look at my face.
he looks to my right.
with your eyes.
he closes them.
at the black circle.
gotcha!

a few days shy of 27 weeks.
2 lbs.
9 oz.
active all day...
all night.
lots of knees and elbows.
actually look pregnant now...
not just plump.
my belly is prominent.
the boys touch it all day.
use my belly button as a portal to talk to the babe.
there will be no shortage of love at the arrival.

the boys do first tee on thursdays.
charlie balked at first.
i told him to think of it as a life skill.
family gatherings.
meetings.
hanging with friends.
plus they teach more than just golf.
respect.
responsibility.
fairness.
different lesson every week.
rules for on and off the course.

sam hangs with the bigs when he is there.
he already knows the game better than some of the older kids.

pickle has the basics down.
wears his glove the whole time.
carries change in his pocket to mark ball placement.
wonder who he learned it from?
