Sam's Story: Week 37.5 October 14, 2004
NOTE: Most of last week Geralyn and Sam were in St. Louis, leaving me without much to talk about for Sam's most recent update here. So Geralyn wrote something up and asked me to post it. Here it is:
This week, Sammy & I flew to St. Louis for Jenny & Dave's wedding at "The Farm." The wedding was a beautiful occasion with a spectacular setting, a huge amount of flowers, and a stunning bride. It was easy to see that so much effort and coordination went into the planning of this weekend-long event, and it appeared that everything went off perfectly, from the rehearsal on Friday, to the bonfire and fireworks that brought the event to a close on Saturday night. Even the weather cooperated, and what started as an overcast morning turned into a bright, sunny day right on time for the ceremony.
Sammy was quite the social butterfly, oohhed and aahhed over by many a family member who hadn't met her yet. We also visited with my godparents while we were there. She handled the whole week extremely well, considering she was still recovering from the cold that brought us to the emergency room the week before, and being kept up past her bedtime on more than one occasion. During this week, Sammy has also become increasingly adept at crawling. She can now move forward as well as backwards, and move from crawling to sitting with ease.
It was a fun visit, but Sammy was glad to see her Daddy at the airport when we got home. Both Sammy & Mommy missed Daddy so much! She slept well when we got home, exhausted from the trip and glad to be back in her own bed.
Here's a few pictures I took, including a whole round of "pass the baby" with my parents, Father Dave, and my godparents Joy and George.
Jamie will post pictures of Jenny & Dave's wedding in the next day or so.
