A quick photo post in keeping with the theme of the day….Sam and Dad headed to the Zoo since I was playing hooky today on my birthday. Full gallery is here.

Timber!
We’ve had a dead tree in the backyard hanging over our parking slab for a while now, and it has come very close to dropping fairly large limbs on top of Amy’s car. We got the required permits from the city arborist, and a tree service came by bright and early to get the work done before the heat of the Atlanta spring was too much. Sam loved the show, watching the dozen or so workmen gather with their four trucks on our street, climb the trees, saw the limbs, and watch the dropping limbs. In the photo above, Sam claps as one of the larger limbs comes down. Gallery is here.
Another Happy Birthday
Sam, as one of the elders in his playgroup, led the way a few weeks ago with his first birthday party – it’s been a sucession of great events organized by the hippest parents around. Here are pics from his buddy Ayden’s party held on Sunday – his parents threw a great event – yummy food for the parents, cheerio necklaces for the tykes and great kid-appropriate cupcakes for the under-1-year-old attendees.

Video Update: Duet
A few weeks ago Amy found an old recorder for Sam to play with. He immediately took to blowing through it, and in this video plays along with mom’s French horn. When he first began to get sounds out of it, he’d crack up every time he heard a noise come out. He’s a natural, I tell ya!
