Christmas 2009

The Lowe Family had a busy, tiresome, but great Christmas. We were still sleepless from Baby Asher's arrival last week by the time Christmas morning rolled around, but we toughed it out and had a great time. Especially Sam, as evidenced by the "Christmas Bomb" (pictured below) which exploded on Christmas morning.Sam spent most of Christmas morning in the tub swimming with his new sharks that Santa brought him.

And baby Asher slept straigh through his first Christmas morning (and most of the day for that matter).
Merry Christmas from the Lowes!

Asher Karl Lowe!

Arrived on the evening of December 16 in Salt Lake City. . . 7 lbs 11 ounces . . . Caucasian (but jaundiced) . . . great athletic upside . . . and a supposed genius. Sam has been great with him so far.

Big News!

Sam is potty trained! As you know, he is usually in a diaper or bare buns, but notice the underpants he is sporting. We are going on 1 month and counting! Sorry for the eyes closed shot, but you get the idea.

And the potty training couldn't come at a better time as we are on the countdown for our 2nd boy. 34 weeks and counting.

Happy HALLOWEEN!

As seen, Sam was a skeleton in cowboy boots (boots not pictured here).

Smoothie

We made smoothies (Sam calls them hoomies) the other night and he laughed so hard at himself making a mess while drinking it that he actually threw up. It was one of our messiest and apparently for Sam the funniest treat yet!

Arizona

Sam and I had such a great time in AZ. It felt good to have one last taste of summer weather before coming back to the fall.

He loved Montana and Rocky. I think he thought he was one of them.

Halloween Excitement

Sam and his cousin Steven are getting excited for Halloween! They both have great "cheese" smiles.
