Introducing Samuel Loren Smith!

Samuel Loren Smith was born on Monday, July 27th at 8:02am (about 20 minutes after we arrived at the hospital!). He weighed a whopping 9 lbs. 4 oz and was 21 inches long. He looks like baby Bradlee. I'm hopeful his eyes will stay blue! The kids fight over holding him and Bradlee and Sarah both like to take his pacifier ("button" according to Sarah) out and put it back in repeatedly. Sarah loves to give Samuel hugs and kisses and thinks it's fun to try to ride him during his tummy time. Bradlee just loves him and had a hard time letting others hold him in the hospital. Now, if you just tell Bradlee that Samuel has pooped or puked, he'll hand him over right away! Bradlee shook Samuel's hand when he met him the first time. Jacob is a great helper with Samuel and around the house when he's in the mood. Samuel is just a big dude. He was 10lbs. 1 0z. at 2 1/2 weeks, which is incidentally when he ROLLED OVER the first time! He's rolled over THREE TIMES! He's not just big, he's buff! He is a sweet baby and we love him a whole lot!
