Cereal not all it was cracked up to be.....

So we went to the Dr. for Lawson's 4 month check up. He weighed 16.7 in the 79% and was 26 and 3/4 inches long in the 95%. We have no clue where he is getting the height. Must be from his mommy and daddy's long legs! Yeah right! His head was only in the 12th percentile so we hope he doesn't look like beetlejuice. The doctor said that he was a big, active growing boy. She told us that we could start solids and to start with cereal. We were so excited, we went straight to Target and bought baby cereal, new baby bowls, little spoons the works. We talked up the cereal all day to Lawson. When the time came we got out the Bumbo the camera and then.....nothing. He took 3 little tastes, gagged twice and threw a huge fit. So much for cereal making him more content, maybe we'll try again tomorrow :(

It's that time! Christmas time is here!

So Lawson's first Christmas consisted of lots of family time, a new play gym and exersaucer, some mighty tasty tissue paper, a little taste of taters from Aunt Kandy and a whopping 14 inches of snow. Oh and did I mention way too much spoiling from the grandparents!

Folks Folks Folks Merry Christmas!

Tis the season..... Wow who knew the holidays could be so hectic! I always heard people talk about it but never really understood. Now that I am back to work with an almost 4 month old trying to bake, shop, wrap and of course fit in a workout to burn off all of those extra Christmas goodies I get it! Lawson went and saw Santa with his cousin Easton! He did great! We have dressed him in a lot of cute little Christmas outfits. If not now when right? He will hate me when he is older. Also here is a pic of him with his cousins on my side Easton, Maris and Tyler! Merry Christmas everyone!

ECU!

This is Nick with his Dad, brother, brother-in-law and 3 uncles. They all played football for East Central at one time or another. I thought it was pretty neat!

Thanksgiving!

Here are a few pics from Mama's at Thanksgiving! There is one of Lawson and his cousins. They are way to cute! The other pics are of Lawson and his second cousin Brennan. Brennan is five weeks older than Lawson. They were so cute together and I think that Mama was in heaven:)

It's been forever!

Wow, it has been so long since I posted anything! Things in the Clements world have been really crazy! We have moved into the rent house that we have nicknamed the love shack! It is very cozy to say the least! It is very old so when we walk the floors start creaking which is very annoying when you have a 3 month old that you are trying to keep asleep. Lawson doesn't seem to know the difference! We know that it will all be worth it when its over right? I also went back to work on the 23rd of November so things are nuts to say the least. But hopefully we will get into a routine soon! Lawson is really starting to notice things. He is also rolling over a lot (tummy to back) and starting to coo like crazy. He has gotten to wear he hates clothes, so he hangs out a lot in a diaper and socks (kinda like his daddy). These are a few pics of Lawson over the past month! He is getting cuter by the day! I am completely in love.

Moving and Doggie surgery! BOO!

So we have had a really hectic week with more to come. Stoops had to have surgery on Wednesday to remove a mass from his leg. We have had to keep a very close eye to make sure he is not eating his stitches. I think that he is enjoying all the attention though. It is probably the most he has gotten since the little man came along. Here is a pic of him recovering. Also Nick and I have sold our house with nowhere to move. We are building but since we have just started the process and are still about 6-7 months out from the house being done, we are having to move to a rent house. 2 moves in less than a year with a newborn and a dog, Oh so fun! Oh well we feel blessed to be able to do it and it will be worth it in the end! Mom said that we could move in with them but when I told her it would be for 6 months she said she would be more than happy to help us find a place to rent. LOL! As you can see Lawson was completely exhausted from all of the packing today!

Lawson and the cousins!

We went and watched the Kansas game and Aunt Bridget and Uncle Furn's house. Lawson's cousin Londyn thinks that he is pretty special and she is an awesome helper. Logan really seems to be taken with him too. Here are a few pics. Hopefully we can get Uncle Furn in some pics next time. I mean are these some adorable cousins or what!

Growin like a weed!

So Lawson went Tuesday for his 2 month check up. He weighed 13 lbs and 2 oz and was 24 inches long! WOW! He has gained 5 lbs and grew 4 inches in a month and a half since his last visit. He taking about 6 oz of formula at each feeding! He has no trouble eating and will definately be ready for some solids at 4 months (not until them Grandma and dede)! His shots were very traumatic for mommy and daddy but not so much for him! He cared for all of 2 seconds! His dad was really excited that he was in the 85th percentile in height! He is hoping for a tight end on the football field or maybe a first baseman. Actually we really don't care as long as he is healthy. Here are some pics of him in big boy clothes. I just love when babies wear grown up clothes. He looks so very handsome! His dad took the pics of him getting shots. I couldn't stand to watch :(

Halloween!

So this was the funniest night ever! My friends came over so that we could take pics of all of our cuties in their outfits! I wish that someone would've taken pictures of us trying to get them to smile. It was ridiculous! Of course Lawson was completely worn out and slept through the entire thing. He is a monkey if you can't tell and I personally think that he is the cutest lil monkey that I have ever seen! BTW thanks to Foster's nursery for providing the decor for the Clements' house! LOL!

Tummy tub

Dede got Lawson this Tummy tub that she saw on Good Morning America and he absolutely loves it! Bath time has become a lot of fun for us and for him!

Tummy time and Sleepy time!
