Best Buds!

Alot of people have asked how Lilli is taking to the new addition; or should I say...her lap replacement. As you can see, she doesn't let anything stand/lay in her way of getting some attention. She either really likes Clayton or is just pretending to and plotting to lick him to death! I really helps now that Clayton has a runny nose and Lilli happens to like to lick noses (yuck!). I think eventually these two will be Best Buds!

Clayton and Me

Clayton's first hug-back. Ok, so looks are deceiving! Clayton actually fell over from a sitting position and couldn't get back up. And, he shared the love while he was down!

Clayton's favorite song so far is the "Bear Necessities" from The Jungle Book. So, we let him watch that part of the movie. He loved it! Couldn't keep his eyes off of the TV!

I'm Growing UP!

AAAHHHH!!! My baby is growing so quickly. Look at those neck muscles! He loves looking around and making any kind of noise that he can muster up. He has such personality (I don't know if it's Chris's or mine yet).

I had to post this picture. This is one of my favorite outfits and it only fit Clayton for about 2 weeks. All his pants have turned into capri pants! Check out those legs. They are finally getting some girth to them.

This looks like child abuse (not even putting my child on a blanket to sleep) but you leave them where they lay if their asleep!!!

Loftin Landing

It Clayton's first trip to the lake in Benton, LA. He had many great visitors. Aunt Gail and Granny spent the morning with us. Then we went on a boat cruise sporting the hat and sun glasses. Clayton liked it so much that he fell asleep! Thanks Lolli, Pop, Aunt Mency and Uncle Chad for a great relaxing weekend. I really enjoyed the extra hands!

OU Baby Shower

That's right...another baby shower. I know what you're thinking...he's already 2 months old and he is still getting a baby shower!
That's what I thought too until Chris's dental class insisted on throwing us and 2 other couples a baby shower. Now I realize that it was a good excuse to get together for pizza and cake. I can't dispute that!
They were incredibly generous and got us these cute little OU outfits.
Chris had a hard time accepting it because it wasn't LSU gear :)! But, here's our future little dentist!

Clayton Speaks Out

Clayton is 2 Months Old!!!

Clayton is measuring over 24 inches and weighing in at almost 11 pounds. I can't believe how fast he is growing. He isn't such an infant anymore. He wants to be so active that it is impossible to get past his kicking to get a snuggle in unless he is asleep.

Check out those overalls. We have a farmer in the family.

Clayton Goes Bowling

My boys love to play!!
Clayton did so well his first bowling trip. Infact, he was so stimulated by the lights and all the people that we couldn't get him to go to bed! That just means he sleeps all the next day!

Picture Perfect Nursery

Welcome to our nursery. We love it!! It looks like it should be in a magazine (I didn't have much to do with it!). In my pregnant mind, I just couldn't make ANY decissions. So...after several attempts at picking out a bed and even more attempts at finding the perfect baby bedding we are finally done!


Furniture compliments of Grandma Downard and decor thanks to Lolli Loftin (Lolli made everything in fabric. What talent!). You made our nursery dreams come true! Thanks G-ma and Lolli!

Clayton loves the newly recovered rocker. We spend many nights in this waiting for him to get tired enough to sleep. Hence his onesie says "I pulled an all-nighter". That's a bit of an understatement...so, we love this chair!
