Friday, the Samulski Clan is heading to Muncie for a quick visit with the Muncie branches of the Jones and Singer families. As a result, don’t expect too much from the blog or my Shutterfly site until we get back home and have time to unpack.

In honor of this trip, here are some pictures of Ian’s first trip to Muncie. He was about 4 or 5 weeks old when he went on his first vacation.

Please excuse the crappy pictures…these were from my old [read: awful] digital camera and since they’re already so bad, I didn’t bother to fix the red eye on them before uploading to the blog.






Matthew doesn’t look at ALL like Ian, does he? 🙂

“They” say you take significantly fewer pictures of your second child. Who “they” is, I have no idea…but what “they” say is true. Unfortunately. 🙁

I swore it wouldn’t be true for me.

I swore I’d take a bazillion and a half pictures of my newest guy.

And I’d like to. I really would. Believe me, I’d LOVE to.

The part that “they” left out was that the reason you take fewer pictures is because you have fewer hands free and available to take pictures at any given moment.

With one adult wrangling a two year old and the other adult wrangling an infant…there just aren’t as many opportunities to grab the camera and snap pictures.

I hope one day Matthew will forgive me for slacking on picture-taking. And in the meantime, thank GOD for Grammy Jones and her camera. 🙂

Good thing we have a 4 year parts and service contract, right?

Wrong.

Wanna know why?

Contract expired 4 days ago.

Awesome.

🙁

It helps that he’s just too darn adorable for his own good….

…and can’t run away from me like his big brother does. 😉
