This past weekend, BJ and I went to Gatlinburg while Sam and Stormie went to Mimi and Pop Pop's!!!! Everyone had a great time (well, Stormie and Rocky wish Sam had let them sleep a little more!)
It snowed in Gatlinburg while we were there, we went to the Ripley's Museum, the Aquarium, The Guinness Book of World Records Museum, and on a Haunted Adventure! There was plenty of shopping too!!! It was great to get away and relax and to be on our own schedule! I dare say, though, that four nights was a long time away from our little man!!!! I missed my little guy, and every kid we heard or saw made us think of him and wonder what he was up to now!!!

Here's the snow...
BJ in the snow...
Me in the snow... (can you tell we're from GA where it doesn't snow that often!!!???)
At Mimi and Pop Pop's, Sam has accomplished even more: he now RUNS in his walker, chases the dogs with NO problem, flushes the toilets, drinks through a straw, and has even stood by himself (he didn't realize he did, though!)!!!! He is taller and heavier, and he cried when we got him back in Athens yesterday afternoon!!!!!!! =( He has not one, but TWO new pairs of shoes, new clothes, and loves any food Mimi and Pop Pop offer him!!!! When I offer new foods, it gets spit back out at me!!!!! I don't know what their trick is!!!!
Sam "talks" all the time now... he has developed his own language! Sometimes I know what he's trying to say, other times I know he's trying to say SOMETHING!!! We'll get it down soon!!!!
Here we go with the pictures...
Sam and Stormie nose-to-nose...
Oh! Look at the mess... and notice the bed-head!!!!
On the move...
And up the stairs...
Where is everybody????
Stormie and Rocky playing... kind of... Rocky is trying to tell Stormie to leave him alone!
Mimi and Sam ready for a ride on the mule...
Sam and Pop Pop on the mule...
Sam flushing the toilet... isn't it cute????
Oh! My! He found the toilet paper...
Awww... Mimi and Pop Pop just let him go and go...
And GOOOOOO... Really... that's enough, don't you think????
He needs to flush all of that toilet paper on the floor there!!!!
