Sam and I went hiking up Skinner's Butte yesterday. We called it "Mount Doom" and Sam was pretending he was Frodo, throwing the one ring into the volcano. We had a great time until he slipped and bonked his hands on some rocks. Not too bad, but enough to turn us around. We were chatting it up as always by the time we made it to the bottom.

Out of the blue he announced, "When I get big, I'm going to go to Star Wars and be a Stormtrooper." I explained that maybe that wasn't a good ideas, as the Stormtroopers were bad. "Okay, maybe I'll be Luke."

When I came home from work last night, Sam was in the back yard with only a shirt on. So, practically buck naked, he was wacking baseballs from his t-ball across the yard. Pretty talented for a two-year-old. Jamie watched on, obviously exhausted from watching our little creature all day.

Sam's still into Star Wars. We occasionally battle it out as Luke and Darth Vader using pillows from upstairs. I gotta get a recording of Sam saying "Give into your hate."

Well, I'm never sure if a toy purchase is for Sam or I these days. I spent most of today watching Sam and we made a Toys-R-Us run. Since Sam's been getting into both Legos and Star Wars these days, we picked up a couple Star Wars Lego kits. I couldn't find Darth Vader anywhere, but we picked up Luke, Han Solo, a stormtrooper, and a Tie Fighter pilot. It's really weird - the pilot and stormtrooper don't have faces. If you take their helmets off, there's nothing there. Creepy.

Sam has been saying a few really funny things:
"Do you know what's my favorite thing? Lightsabres."
"I want to watch t.v. forever."
"Everybody has scary dreams sometimes."
