In case you didn't notice, Samuel's initials spell SAM; isn't that cute? One week after he was born, I was driving somewhere with him, and when I looked at him, he looked like Samuel Angus to me. His name fits him.
He seems to be mild mannered. The girls love him a lot, and he puts up with a lot from them (Claire was giving him suffocating loves tonight; he didn't get too upset). He already weighs over 9 pounds, and he measured 21 1/2 inches long at his two week check-up; so unless he grew 1 1/2 inches in two weeks, he wasn't measured right (they said he was 20 inches long at birth). Who knows? All I know is he is sure cute. We blessed him on the 10th of March. Eli's parent's were here from Kansas. We didn't have a lot of people here as our house is small and Samuel is still quite young, but it was a nice event. I'm still adjusting to having three children. Physically it's not hard, but mentally it's challenging. I feel like I'm always neglecting someone. I'm sure it gets easier (at least I'm hoping so). Here are a few pictures from the last couple weeks.

Blessing day, 2 weeks old. I bought this suit when I was pregnant with Sydney. I didn't know if I was having a boy or girl, so I had my sister buy me a girl dress and a boy suit (they were on sale). I figured I would have a boy eventually.
"I really don't like my cheeks pinched, but I'll put up with it for you Auntie Ewa".
My uncle Dean made Samuel a very cute ring. The girls also have rings made by him, but theirs are gold with a little pearl.
Isn't this a sweet picture?
Check out his fuzzy hair and smile.
He looks a lot like Sydney did when she was a baby. They have the same eye shape.

Those pictures are so dang cute Ang.... What a cute family you have. You missed a fun time tonight. You'll have to bring the girls down to see my new farm animals.
The picture with Sydney and Claire holding Samuel is precious. When I look at Samuel he just looks like a McMillan. He has similarities to your girls, but mostly, he just looks like he belongs. What a cute little boy. I'll have to get your advice on taking care of 3 kids. You're such a good mom.
He is darling. Time flies once they get here doesn't it. Glad everything is going well for you.
