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.

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!
About a month ago, Sam began to show us the hand motions to the itsy-bitsy spider song. Here, he’s accompanied by our resident musician. Click on ‘play’ triangle to start video on the page.
Sam and Amy had a lovely afternoon, hanging in the front yard with some of his friends. Dad had to grab the camera to get this shot of him exploring the pathway among the monkey grass. Gallery is here on Flickr.
