Christmas in November

The day after Thanksgiving, we celebrated Christmas with the Skidmore's because Nani, Grandpa, Stacey, Burke, and Germania were going to Brazil for Christmas.  We decorated the Christmas Tree, and opened the gifts from Nani and Grandpa Skidmore.  We even were able to see Great Grandma Skidmore, and spend time with her.  We were also able to go in the spa because Grandpa heated it up.  The boys had fun spending time at Nani and Grandpa's house with their cousin, Abby.

Clark at 1 Month

Clark is always stiff, and has a hard time relaxing.  He loves to put his hands near his face all the time.  He is little, but he sure is strong.  He can hold his head up, and he likes to straighten his legs to stand up.  He is hungry all the time, and he doesn't let up forget it.  His favorite position is for me to stand up, with him facing outward, and bouce him.  He weighs 8lbs. 4 oz. and is 20 in. long.  He is our sweet boy! 

Thanksgiving

Clark's First Thanksgiving -- He is Thankful for his Mom!

We spent Thanksgiving at Nani and Grandpa Skidmore's home in Las Vegas, NV.  We Celebrated with Nani, Grandpa, Stacey, Whitney, Chip, Abby, Quinn, Burke, Germania, Great Grandma Skidmore, and Kiley.  We each wrote what we were thankful for, and here is what Brady and Logan said that they were thankful for.  Brady is thankful for Mom, Dad, Nani, the Wii, movies, and his brothers Logan and Clark.  Logan is thankful for Mom, Dad, Brady, Clark, Nani, food, and Nursery.  We all had a fun time together as a family!

Big Brothers

Brady and Logan are such good big brothers.  They love Clark, and always try to be so helpful.  We still have to watch them like a hawk because even though they think they are helping,  they are too rough with him.  They are learning, and try to do the best they can!

Clark's First Bath

Clark did not like the bath!  He started screamming from the minute he touched the water.  He seemed uncomfortable and scared.  We hurried through the bath, and even tried to change him quickly because getting changed has always been a big deal to him.  When he was finally changed, I picked him up, and he immediately was happy.  I guess he realized that it is better to be clean!

Crazy Clothes

Brady had picked out different shorts to where, but they were dirty.  When it was time to get him ready to go to Pre-school, I asked him to go change his shorts.  He came down wearing his swimming trunks.  I wanted him to change, but I realized it really didn't matter as long as he was happy.  Some battles are better left alone.  Grandma Gibson was the one to drive him to Pre-school today, and she said to let him wear what he wants.  We all had a good laugh about it.

Patty's Birthday

What a perfect way to celebrate my 34th Birthday!  Grandma Gibson and Aunt Angie and Ellie came over to visit.  Grandma Gibson made my favorite fudge frosting cake with pecans sprinkled on top!  It was a good birthday, and who could ask for anything more than having Clark James Skidmore here with us!  He is so precious!

Ellie and Clark met for the first time today!  Thay are only one day apart, and Ellie is older!
