I can’t believe he’s in first grade already!

I’m just putting them all in one gallery and calling it a day. We’ve got the car show, Thanksgiving, and the big snowstorm we’re currently buried under.

Enjoy.

Decide for yourself…

I suspect that Thanksgiving will provide is with more opportunities, so check back…

It happens to be the tooth he banged up last year in his bike accident, so we weren’t surprised when it was the first one to get loose. What did surprise us was how long it took us to finally fall out.

A month ago, we thought our family milestones were going to be tooth, birthday, baby, in that order. Josh took things into his own little hands and showed up a week before Sammy’s birthday, and the tooth hung around another month. So there you go.

That may still happen, but what we quickly realized was that he mostly looks just like Sammy did, only smaller.

The one on the left is Sammy, six years ago, and Josh is on the right.  You be the judge.

Jennifer’s first cell phone was purchased in 1999, the year we got married. I don’t have any pictures of it, but you probably remember what cell phones looked like ten years ago.

Her second cell phone was purchased in 2003, after Sammy was born. While it wasn’t cutting edge, it was a decent phone, a flip phone with a camera. Cool for the time. I bought one for myself a few months later. Of course, I moved on to something else a few years ago.

Check it out…

Today, it finally happened. She’s moved out of the cell phone stone age. We can no longer call her a cell phone Luddite. I bought her a new phone.

It’s a good phone, the Samsung Rant. Just came out last month. It’s red, it’s on the EVDO high-speed network, and best of all, it will finally allow her to use that unlimited text messaging on her account.

So, let’s all welcome Jenn into the modern era. Feel free to send her a text to congratulate her. You know the number.
