N is "talking", cooing, smiling, giggling, and trying to laugh. He's moving his arms and legs with more directed action, and delighting in it. He is just about 24 inches long -- which means he is the length Sam was at when he died. Sam didn't weigh as much as Nick - who is now 12 lbs -- but in those few pictures of us holding Sam after he died, Sam looks so bloated compared to N alive. Sam had been pumped full of all sorts of things as they tried to keep him alive for nearly three hours. N looked "pudgy" a few days ago, but now doesn't so much anymore. . . he's moving!
N is passing Sam up in everything now. Except in hair. . . Sam had lots of hair that he never lost. N is still rather bald-ish in comparison. . . so Sam will never lose that distinction!
