Chicken Little

OK, so it has been way too long since the last post. Where to begin? Well the last few weeks have been pretty crazy at the Peterson house. The main event was Young Sam catching the flu. More than likely it was the H1N1 virus. He had extreme high temps and chills one night, thus causing a 2 hour trip to the ER. A really nasty cough and runny nose were the big problem and are still lingering. He is doing much better now, though. Sam has finally started growing more teeth too. He actually just grew a molar and it looks like a k-9 is next in line!!


Halloween came and went this year, and Sam did not get to participate too much since he was sick. We dressed him up for just a few moments so he could hand out the candy, but he did not want any part of it. Sam did like to look out the window and see all the other little kiddos walking the streets. Word on the street was that the house across the way was handing out sodas, which Court and I thought was a fun (expensive) idea. We are not that cool. We hand out cheap candy..

As for Courtnee and I, we are still just as busy as ever. We take care of Sam, and when he goes to bed in the evening, relax and enjoy each others company. Mainly we watch all of our shows together. Luckily, they all come on right when Sam goes to bed.

Fall and Pumpkins

This weekend was a blast! Courtnee and I took young Sam on a day trip to Appleton. We webt to the mall, Toys R us and continued the tradition of Chipolte Saturday. Sam was a trooper and did very well! While in toy heaven, a worker at Toys R Us gave Samurai a balloon. If only you could have seen his eyes light up like a little boy at Christmas time. This truly made our experience and day so much better.

Today we finally fulfilled our long time dream of 4 years to pick a pumpkin. We could also do other activities, but it was getting close to Sam's nap time and we needed to get the dirty lad back for clean up and his nap.

Courtnee and I truly love the fall. Next weekend we are going to take a Day trip to Door County so that we can see more of Gods Creation and beauty. Door County is truly one of the most beautiful places we have visited.
