February 16, 2007: Sammy was feeling a little under the weather today. As he was getting dressed for school he asked Sam for some "pink kind." The pink kind is what I call tylenol. Poor, but smart, guy!

Last night Sam did the bedtime routine by himself, as I had to attend open house at the school. He was getting into the bathtub when Sammy pointed at Sam's shirt and exclaimed, "Daddy clubhouse shirt!" Sam looked down and realized he had on a shirt with the Masonic symbol on it. We tell Sammy that the lodge is Daddy's clubhouse. He must have recognized the symbol and then made the connection on his own. He's a genius. I think we should have his IQ tested...

Sammy's teacher says that he would be their class clown. He has a great sense of humor and he loves to laugh. She said he really loves the Dr Suess books. He gets the rhymes, rhythm, and silliness. He must get his silliness from his daddy...

At church on Sunday, Sammy enjoyed playing with his "guys." He has a plastic Elmo head that opens up as a case for little plastic figures (Sesame Street, Barney, Pooh) which he loves to play with. At church he stands in front of the pews and walks the guys up and down the pew. This past Sunday, he included putting the case on his head like a helmet.
You can't forget your protective head gear, especially at church!

At dinner last night, Sammy kept saying something over and over. We caught the middle word, Carolina. Then we realized he was saying North Carolina State Wolfpack. Apparently, there is a kid in his class who sings the fight song and has converted all of the kids in the class to Pack fans. This is very disconcerting to his Blue Devil fan parents!

Two days ago, Sammy had a picnic dinner on the couch with Mommy and Daddy. He always has to have a napkin because he is very picky about keeping clean when eating. he spilled some milk on the collar of the tshirt he was wearing and he put his napkin down the front of his shirt to try to get it up. The napkin was well used and crumpled up, so when he put it down his shirt, he looked up at us and said, look boobies! He then spent the next 10 minutes laughing and trying to make sure that his boobies didn't fall out.
