Magic House Halloween Party

Halloween morning Clark and his buddy JR went to the Magic House for their member's Halloween party. The kids there were TOO cute in their costumes and everybody seemed to be having so much fun. Although Clark and JR just kind of hung out in their own little play area. And of course as soon as he noticed the water table, that was ALL he wanted to do. So, the costume came off and Clark had his own little water party...

Pumpkin Patch

We couldn't think of a more perfect thing to do the day before halloween, so we packed up Clark and took him to the Thies Farm pumpking patch with his cousins. It was oddly warm that day and Clark had so much fun checking out all the pumpkins, farm animals and the other kids running around everywhere. We can tell he can't wait until he's running around with them all, but for now we're enjoying our little guy just the way he is!!!

It's almost impossible to get a good picture of 4 squirmy children!

Late in the afternoon it cooled off and was time for a sweater!

Time to head home! Clark couldn't get enough of that RadioFlyer, he cried when we took him out!

Nite Nite

Ok, one more. Here is Clark demonstrating what you do when you go nite nite :) Cute little guy understands what to do with his own pillow which I find totally adorable. On the other hand he wants nothing to do with that pillow being in his crib. Nice drool little one.

Go Steelers!

Just had to post a couple pictures of Clark & Rich in their matching Steelers gear, thanks Renee!!!!! They're having a nice "boy" afternoon watching the game together. Thankfully Clark is feeling a little better. Friday night was Lisa's birthday and we had overnight babysitting scheduled, and concert tickets to one of our fave bands- we couldn't wait for a fun night out and one of those rare days when we both get to sleep in. But our little guy was off that whole day and was super fussy, which is so not him anymore. When we took his temp it was 102.5, when he coughed he was gasping for breath and when he wasn't coughing or crying he was panting. Needless to say we were worried, called his pedi and they told us to take him to the ER. Luckily we have 2 of the top 10 children's hospitals within 2 miles from our house :) SO, our fun night out turned into a evening in the ER and a sick little one with a fever and double ear infection. Poor little guy hasn't been himself since but he seems like he's starting to feel a little better. His fever broke this afternoon and we've even gotten him to smile and laugh a couple times!




how come he looks like a little boy here? when did my baby get big???

Thank you Great Gram!

i LOVE my halloween card! please feel better soon, i can't wait to get snuggles at christmas!

I've been REALLY behind...

with my Clark pictures because i've been spending my free time working on work stuff. BUT, last weekend I shot a friend's family pictures and Clark and Rich came along. Tonight I was working on their stuff and saw a couple cute ones of Mr. Clark I thought I'd share. He was having a blast at the funky playground- And of course, I had to include this really cute one of Jenni's kids- seriously how adorable are they!?!?

Adventures in self-feeding

We have now entered the wonderful world of self-feeding. Clark no longer wants anything to do with food that is being offered on a fork or spoon we're holding. So eating has gotten very MESSY, but pretty fun to watch. Just a lot of cleaning the floor, and a ton of laundry but what's new there. Enjoy the pictures of Clark vs. Yogurt.

Saying Hi-

Clark went for a stroll the other day while having a video conference with Grandma, Grandpa & Great Gram! Needless to say everyone involved had a good time. We miss you guys and can't wait until December!

Lunch

After Clark''s big boy haircut we took him out to lunch to celebrate- he was such a happy little boy!

Happy Haircut!

I've been super busy with work stuff this week, so it's taking me a long time to get all the fun pictures from the past week when Clark's grandparents were in town from Orlando. BUT, Friday our "big" boy got his first big boy haircut! Clark wasn't too sure of it, but he looks extremely adorable and we can't get enough of our toddler. Now if he would only start toddling we'd be set :) Honestly I think the haircut was harder on me than him, I loved his hair, but it was getting in his eyes, and I think he's probably more comfortable now- maybe we'll let it grown out a little later when he's able to brush it away himself, or tell us if he's annoyed with it!

AHHHH, Clark LOVED driving his firetruck- say goodbye to all those long floppy curls.



ooh, they have TV here. Elmo sucks, can they put on sports center?

Wait, I'm not sure about this guys-

What do you think? You like?

Look at all his hair!
