High 5's

Sam is such a happy and helpful kid. He is so smart and picks up really fast on everything that we do and say. He is even so cute with comments about the baby. He always shares his fruit snacks with the baby (via mommy), gives my tummy hugs and kisses, sings and talks to the baby. He is convinced that the baby is going to share a room with him, at first sleeping in the corner in its crib and then moving up to the top bunk. The other day I was putting on my make up and he chastised me for leaning over too far over the counter and squishing the baby.

Over the last couple of days Brandon and Sam have been able to feel the baby kicking. Sam likes to put his hand on my tummy and say the baby is giving him "high fives." I love the way he thinks .

This is now, so we will see if this positive attitude continues once the baby is born and Sam has to share our attention and time.

We find out whether it will be a boy or girl next Monday!
