Bored Yet???

"don't you think you'll get bored?" i think that was one of the most asked questions when we decided that i would stay home with clarke. the answer....a resounding NO. there is always something to do. whether it is cleaning, making dinner, running errands or playing with clarke, i'm not bored. you can probably tell by my lack of blogging that we stay pretty busy.

clarke had his 4 month shots and check up last week. he is on the upper end of average in all of his measurements. he weighed 16.1 lbs and was 25 3/4 inches long. he did ok with his shots. he did cry, but was asleep by the time we got to the car.

while we were in little rock, clarke had a couple of days where he cried for an hour or so for reasons that we could not figure out. we think he might be cutting a few teeth. since we got home, he has been back to his super sweet self. very content. smiling and 'talking' to us all day long.

clarke's new favorite toy is his jumperoo. while i was at my moms' group last week, i mentioned that we had a jumperoo that clarke was not long enough for. (his feet would just dangle.) one the other girls suggested that we put a pillow under his feet. brilliant. why can't i think of things like that??? well. it was perfect. he loves his jumperoo. he jumps around and wears himself out. he's fallen asleep in the jumperoo several times...that is just about the cutest thing i've ever seen. i'll post a picture soon. --thanks aunt cat and uncle adam, for the the jumperoo.

he does have a couple of new tricks. clarke can now roll over both directions. he is not very good at either direction and he really doesn't realize what he's doing. but as soon as he does, i'm sure that will be the end of our stationary baby.

we leave tomorrow for a vacation. we are excited. we're going to destin, fl. we are making a quick pit stop in MS to visit with daniel's family. say a prayer that gustav doesn't ruin our plan of laying out on the beach all day.

we are off to run some errands and do some laundry! pics to come.
