Our Little Man is Growing Up

I thought this deserved a post all by itself! A few weeks ago Clay started going from all fours to a sitting position. I thought, this is great he can sit and play with toys. Well, that lasted about a day. The same week, he started putting one hand in front of the other, and realized he could MOVE. So that's what we've been doing. He is not a speed demon, but he gets where he wants which is usually someone's shoes or a cord of some sort. He no longer wants to be contained. He would rather be on the floor with freedom and independence.

He has such a sweet heart. His smile lights a room, and he is adored by us all, his brother included.

Oh, and one of his front top teeth is poking through. They have been really swollen lately, but I always thought the bottom ones came first. Nope, top teeth here we come! So far, not a lot of pain for either one of us, let's hope it stays that way. Here's the little "big" brother himself...

We love you Clay Clay!
