my husbands whole family is a little obsessed with nicknames. everybody has not just one or two nicknames, but about ten. so, before we had sam we were pretty sure he was going to be called “sammers”. jack is pretty often “jackers”, so “sammers” just fit. john (my husband) threw us for a loop when sam was about a week old and he decided that samska suited him better. and what better for a middle name, then buddha boo. yep, so we call him “samska” quite regularly. (maybe now you get the whole “pazy’s portraits” thing a little more.)
anyhow, my little “samska budha boo” was 3 months old yesterday. i thought those first three months flew by with jack. this time it really has been like a whirl-wind. (it might have something to do with me only taking a month off work and starting right back into the crazy busy season). i can’t believe how fast it has gone by and i just know that nine months from now i will really wonder where my baby went. sam is such a sweet, perfect baby. he is snuggly, smiley, and “talks” to us all the time. he is a mama’s boy but is really starting to warm up to his dad too. his big brother is still all up in his business, but i think deep-down sam really likes it.
after looking at these you may get where the “buddha” part comes from. 🙂
Alisa - wow! look at that belly! i bet you were cracking up when you were taking these- too cute!
Leigh - I am in love with all of them…but the face in that last one makes me melt!!!! He is so sweet! I’m still laughing from the “all up in his business” part.
