New Member Of The Matthews' Family

On Monday, May 26th Sam Michael Matthews joined our family. He was 5 oz and 9 1/2 inches long. We adopted Sam from Katherine Evans. He is Leonard Matthews' cousin. You can see Leonard on Uncle Mikey's blog: http://michaeltmatthews.blogspot.com/2008/03/leonard-visits-chicago.html

We are really excited about Sam (named by Mikey). Today he had a busy day. Here is where he slept last night:



He went in the Jumperoo for awhile after his breakfast:


Helped Tom work while we went to aerobics:


Helped me organize our daily calendar:


After a busy morning he fell asleep with Preston:


Then he went to sleep with Wesley:


And now he is cuddling with his favorite member of the family: Lily. They get a long great!



We are excited Sam is a part of our family. He is a great sleeper, doesn't need his diaper changed, only needs to eat once a day, never cries, no temper tantrums and he has the prettiest blue eyes. Welcome to the family Sam! (Thanks for the present Mikey and Katherine - it's adorable and we love it!)

I can't tell you how much I miss "City" Sam. Leonard has been pretty ticked about that.

Please take care of Sam, love him, adore him, and please keep him away from that devil cat.

That Seattle evening shown below does look truly magical. I could go for some of that :) You are lucky your parents live right there on the water (I know I've probably said that a million times).
