Fire Station

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 19:49:13 GMT

This morning I did some copying with Miles:

Then he wanted me to copy him:

We also had our first preschool field trip to the fire station and of course they went dressed as their dinosaurs:

Luke with his fire hat and the leaves he collected on our walk to the fire station (we're just about three blocks from the fire station):

Tomorrow those pine trees in our backyard should (Lord willing) be GONE!

See my neighbor in the green shirt by the white truck. He's in this hard rock band...I mean it's hard core rock and roll. The name of the band is No Conviction. Anyway, as I was taking this picture we were talking about how we have tried different ways to make the Amish Friendship bread (I got my starter from them). Later that night I just busted out laughing as I thought of this hard core rock and roll dude making Amish Friendship Bread. The two just don't jive!

Clark in a 9 month outfit (not to mention that he's in size THREE diapers...the same size as his 1 year old cousin!)

Luke made a "fish" out of his toys:

For Halloween Miles went with my parents for a day trip to see my sister and her family. He took his homemade coustume with him:

Luke had a cold, so we only went to about 5 houses. He collected candy for Miles. He was a Darth Monster

Today John bought some dino costumes at K-Mart for $3.50! The boys LOVE them:

Here's a video of Clark:

Today we headed out to the mall. We ate at Rain Forest Cafe and walked around a bit. We ended up watching the fish at Bass Pro Shop. Here are some pictures we took.

Clark loved looking at the fish at Rain Forest:

Talking to Grandpa

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 00:30:19 GMT

My parents got home from their vacation and stopped by to see the boys! Clark had fun with grandpa.

First he got an airplane ride:

Second he got decorated with a butterfly sticker:

Third he showed grandpa his sitting up skills (he still has a long way to go to doing it on his own, but he's a strong boy!)

Fourth he had a nice conversion with grandpa and gave him lots of smiles. He is one of the most "talkative" babies! Even more than his early-talking brother Miles! He just loves to "talk" to you. His favorite sound is "OOOOO".

He was talking to his Memaw:

Clark Cooing

Here's a video of Clark cooing...awww! This ones for the grandma's!

Potty Party

Sat, 03 Oct 2009 14:03:27 GMT

When Miles went number 2 on the potty we threw him a potty party! Of course, we promised the same thing to Luke. About 2 weeks ago we went "cold turkey" with diapers. We are using a timer and Luke goes when the timer goes off...but why does number 2 have to be so difficult!?

Well, Tues. and Weds. he went number 2 in the potty. So we threw him a potty party! All the grandparents came and he sure felt special!

We got a cake (thanks toWal-Mart for their discounted cakes)

He got some gifts (new underwear and a movie!)

Then the grandma's got silly with the candy corn:

Of course we have to have a couple of Clark, who is getting so big. He's in size 2 diapers and almost all 3 to 6 mos. clothes!

I think Clark looks big in this picture of his daddy and memaw:

The other day he fell asleep and I laid him on the chair...it was just too sweet!
