My baby blue eyes

Dr. Boe thinks Clayton's eyes will stay blue. They are such a pretty color right now (just like his daddy's). Blake and I call him baby blue eyes...so I kinda hope they stay blue. This outfit brings out his baby blues :-).


Clayton got tired of holding his head for Grandma Cyndee so he started being cute and sucking his fist. I was busy cooking so I didn't get a shot of him holding his upper body up...that will be soon to come! He is changing so fast!!!

We have a big boy on our hands......

He is recovering from his shots.....look at those band aids :-(

Clayton had his 2 month dr. appt yesterday......here are his stats! What a big boy....

height 25 inches 97%

weight 14 lbs 15 oz 97%

Head cir. 16 1/8 in 75%

It looks like his stats are similar with his two weeks appt. He got his shots and cried alot. I have never seen him cry like that...what a sad moment. I definitly got teary eyed. He was really good the rest of the day. He slept alot and got fussy when he first woke up, but after he ate and started snuggling again he was fine. Dr. Boe said he can 't believe how strong he is....he probably has to be to hold up that 15 lb body!

2 months old!

Clayton really missed his daddy b/c he was gone this weekend for the annual Ozarks clean up trip. They had to "get the house ready for the winter."


Last week we put Clayton in his bumbo seat for the first time. He really likes it and usually smiles for me when he is in it.....he is holding his head up much better now!



This is how I get things done around the house when Clayton wants my attention.....We both like to snuggle!


Clayton is really smiley right after a nap.....as u can see!

I was in the shower and heard Clayton making noses....I had just enough time to go get my camera to take pictures of him smiling and laughing at himself in his swing. His swing is his favorite thing. He loves to look at himself in the mirror and watch the mobile.

2 month update:

Clayton still only really gets upset when he is hungry.....he is hungry all the time! He can now look at you when you talk to him (most of the time). He also can grab and hold onto things like my hair, shirts, fingers, anything he wants really. The best thing he does is "talk" to you. He coos, laughs, and smiles all the time!

Last week he moved from the bassinet in our room to his crib. He is doing great in his crib. We decided to move him because he was crying alot and not falling back asleep. One night he ended up sleeping with me for part of the night. So the next day I decided enough of that and he has been in his crib ever since. He has slept two night all night......so hopefully that continues pretty soon!

Diaper Explosion!

Okay what do you do when you wash a diaper (thank god a clean one) with rest of your babies clothes?

Well I know the answer...b/c somehow I did it!

I went downstairs to switch Clayton's laundry....I started pulling things out of the washing machine and noticed everything had little goey clear sticking balls on it. Ding Ding Ding I washed a diaper with Clayton's clothes.

Well what you do to fix this problem (no don't throw it all away....that thought crossed my mind)....you wash his clothes again (maybe 3 times) with 1/2 cup of salt. I found this on someone's blog. Thank god for BLOGS!!!!!

Happy Halloween!

Here is my little moo cow. Casper is a pumpkin
and as you can tell he HATES the costume. He
usually poses for pictures for me!


Isn't he the cutest? He didn't last long in his
costume. Who would of thought it would be 70
degrees on Halloween? He turned into a little
oven so he was pretty much naked the rest of
the day.



My little pumpkin. He did so good for these pictures.

6 weeks

All I have to say is like father like son. (Notice both have their

mouths open while they sleep)

Clayton and Megan

They are one month apart and my little monster is as big or bigger than Megan.

Clayton really likes to sit up and look around. So I leaned him against a pillow so he could look around. I went to get my camera and when I started taking his picture this is what he did. What a huge smile! My baby loves being a big boy!
