Big Boys

Clay turned 8 months last week! He is growing up right before my eyes. He has had many firsts in the last month. He is now a fast crawler, pulling to stand, babbling mama every once in a while (not consistantly, and not towards me yet), and has cut three teeth (two on top and one on bottom). He is still eating every three hours along with baby food/oatmeal 3 times a day. He takes three naps a day around an hour or more each. I was thinking about trying to adjust his feedings to every four hours with two naps a day, but he recently had a stomach bug that delayed this. Is anybody else's babies moved to every four hours, yet? Not sure if I am trying to push it, or if I'm behind. All I know is the boy loves to eat, and never denies his food. We have a house of hungry, healthy boys! Clay is doing great and I can't believe a year is creeping up on us!

Henry is enjoying his summer, but is one that needs to stay busy, busy. We went to the park today for the first time in a while due to the heat. He loved it, and it is so funny to watch him walk up to other kids and ask what they are doing, if he can play, or if they need help with anything. He is becoming a great big brother too. He loves "trying" to wrestle with Clay, and keeps him laughing all day long. Henry has also been going number 2 in the potty. I know, it's about time! We started taking away a car at a time when he went in his pants and that was all it took. I wish I would have thought of that a year ago. He also gets a reward too. After so many he gets a prize. We are currently working on a pet fish. He has already named Fin Mater Jones. We'll see... Here are some pictures from the park.
