Ribbit

(Kiles, this post is for you!) I had to post this picture, first of all because I think it's so darn cute, but also because it has a FROG in it. I have an irrational fear and dislike of frogs, I'm not exactly sure why but I always have. So everytime I see one of Clae's frog toys or one of his outfits with a frog on it I think, "eeew, frogs." I'm just waiting for the day he comes to me and says "mommy, look what I found," and he shows me a big, ugly, disgusting frog. That will not be a good day.

More Please...

At almost 6 months Clae is EVERYWHERE! He's not crawling but he rolls everywhere and he "worms" his way around. What I mean by that is he lays on his back, arches himself up so only the top of his head and the bottom of his feet are touching the floor and uses his head to pull himself around. I've never seen anything like it, it's actually pretty impressive. We have hardwood floors so I lay a blanket on the floor for him to play on but it's impossible to keep him on the blanket, he always ends up on the wood but he doesn't seem to mind much.

He is getting much better at eating cereal from a spoon and we've now started to incorpororate a few vegetables which he seems to like fairly well. Kirby is much better at feeding him food from a spoon, he's much more patient than I am. We're at grandma's in this picture, this was her first time to see him eating from a spoon.

Uncle Brandon and Aunt Sissy

My sister and I have been calling each other Sissy for as long as I can remember. A few years ago we decided to try to be mature and start calling each other by our actual names, but it didn't happen. So, now it's only natural to refer to her as Aunt Sissy. Clae loves his Uncle Brandon and Aunt Sissy and I think they kind of like him too! They just celebrated their 1 year wedding anniversary on the 21st. Congratulations Carly and Brandon!
