Sammy's new helmet design--Super Sam!

I took Sam's "Chicks Dig This" stickers off today and replaced them with his "Super Man" ones. Unfortunately, the stickers weren't a perfect fit and bubbled up a bit, so I'm not sure how long they are going to last. Here they are in all their cuteness for now though. :)

Thinking back to a couple of months ago it's funny to think that we were so worried about Sam's head shape and getting the helmet. It was all consuming for us. I felt like it was going to be such an inconvenience, hard to get used to and that Sam would hate it. It has just become a part of our everyday lives now. We rarely think about it (except the smell at the end of the day--whew!) or even notice it now. I can honestly admit that I miss kissing his soft, sweet little baby head though. I take full advantage of his helmet being off for that that one hour a day each day, kissing and nuzzling his head as much as possible. I am so thankful that we ended up getting the helmet. There's a world of difference in his head shape from then until now and I don't think it would have changed had he not had the helmet.

I borrowed an external flash and lens from my friend today. I had to try them out as soon as I got home. I'm in love with the external flash, I think it's almost time for me to invest in one. :) The kids were clearly mesmerized by the bright flash, as you can see from the last pictures.
