Said by Sammy today...

"I don't 'yike' Mikey anymore, because he's taking a 'yong' time to come home!" (He pronounces his l's with y's.)

Someone is missing their oldest brother!:(
The "King" has been served.
(I think he loves his time as an only child.)

Sammy's favorite task.
Loading the candy canes on the bear...and then proceeding to eat as many as mom will allow.
It's becoming an every-day-ritual.
