First Aquarium!

 

So we took Samuel Elijah to his first Aquarium. The Houston Aquarium is small, but it really wasn’t bad. Jenny and I had a lot of fun just being out as a family and doing something special. Funny enough, even though we didn’t do much, we were more than ready to go home when we got finished.

Sammy slept through all of the Aquarium, and most of the trip. He didn’t even wake up to eat. We were still happy we got to go, it was a really neat trip.

I can not wait until he is old enough to really get excited and learn about it. I love where he is at now and look forward to future stages too. It is a tall order being a Dad, or Mom, but I do look forward to trying my best.

 

Here are some pictures from the Aquarium trip.

Having Fun…

 

So I am excited about today because I get to take Jenny and Sammy to the Aquarium and there are penguins! For those who don’t know they are my favorite, I even wrote a children’s book on them when I was about twelve years old.

In the mood for fun I wanted to post some images I chose just for the fun. I hope you all enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

The top two are my favorite, but I just had a ton of fun with all of them, let me know what you think!

Busy!

 

Who thought having a baby would HAMPER your photography?!? I guess I should have expected it, and in all fairness I have been taking the pictures, just not processing them.

Well, as you probably guessed, things have been insanely busy. Work, the baby, and Jenny have kept me going.

It is simply amazing to look at him. Even wondering if he looks much like me, I am still so wrapped up in him. He is growing WAY to fast, but he is SO precious.

I’ll never forget coming in from work and watching my sisters fawning over him. I felt somewhat dejected at being gone all the time, like He would attach to everyone but me. Yet while they fawned he wiggled his way to where he could see me. Locked his eyes on mine and just stared, until even my sisters were aware he was ignoring them.

I almost cried. He loves me already… Lord only knows why. I could tell in that moment that if I just took care of him and his mom, he would always love me. Wow what a feeling.

Well enough of the new father blabbing… here are some pictures of my pride and joy.

 

The most beautiful baby ever!

Little Man, Big Week…

YAY!! My baby boy Samuel Elijah Zwakenberg was born 2/26/11 at 2:19 am, weighing 7 pounds 12 ounces and measuring 20 inches long.

Needless to say, he is perfect. It has been an insanely crazy week, and I believe we are STILL trying to figure out where we are, but one thing I do know, you can get lost just staring at him.

The following pictures are here because my computer is finally working and I have been threatened if I did not. These are a fairly good sample, but I haven't spent much time at all working with them.

 

We want to introduce to you our little Sammy Eli;
