Sean and I have been keeping in touch during the day by playing Scrabble against each other on our smartphones. Both times we've played I've won by less than a five point margin. So I'd like to think we're pretty evenly matched. Each game takes about a week to complete.
All of our texts are now us pestering each other to complete our turns. It's so fun.

Introducing....solid foods!
Last Sunday, the 13th, we introduced solid foods to our little guy. In doing so, we felt like we were doing something naughty--like we were taking away part of his innocence. Nevertheless, we did it.
We started out with a carrot/milk puree that I made myself. He wasn't a fan. There was no fussing, but he did produce some mighty what-in-the-world-are-you-doing-to-me looks. So we said to each other, "Maybe he doesn't like carrots just like his daddy. Let's try something else." Well, he did the same thing with the sweet potatoes that I made for him at the end of the week.
Below is his first ever introduction to solids. We only let it go on for about five minutes since he clearly wasn't enjoying himself. The unedited version, for those of you who just can't get enough of our baby, is here.

He fell asleep in the car!
I know most of you moms reading this may think, "What's the big deal? Babies fall asleep in the car all the time." Well, not this baby. He hasn't fallen asleep in his carseat since probably month two. I feel like we're constantly in a battle against time to get home before he explodes.
So when I saw he had fallen asleep on the way home from a Music Together demo at the local library, I called Sean to meet him at our favorite coffee shop, Pascal's at the Christian Study Center of Gainesville. Sean joined me out in the parking lot as I enjoyed my hot chocolate, and I took my time getting home. Sammy woke up as I was pulling into our driveway. Thank you, Samuel!
(For those who may worry about my safe-driving habits, this photo was taken while parked).

Me: What is your favorite thing and your least favorite thing about me?
Sean: My favorite thing about you is your already. My least favorite thing is your not yet.
How romantic.
