Spencer's 6 Week Photos

One of my former students took these photos.  I think they are pretty great considering Spencer did not like to be moved around and woke up several times and Clara was not in the picture taking mood.

The End of January

 January 23 

10 p.m. and both my kids are still awake. I don't know how I like to sleep so much and they like to stay awake so late.

Spencer didn't mind the noise of a basketball game at all. 

He later slept through all the buzzers and cheering.

Clara in some of my old Rainbow Bright pajamas that my Mom had saved.  She wants to wear them to school when she has pajama day tomorrow.

January 1 and January 29

He has really filled out in just one month!

January 30

In the past week Spencer has really started to smile a lot. 

The Last Days at Home

 January 21

A Pinterest project.  Ours didn't turn out quite as cute as the example online, I might outline the heart before we mail them out.  Clara still had fun sticking her hands in paint.

January 22

Clara loves to eat black olives, I think because she loves to put them on her fingers.  She calls herself a tree frog.  She is holding up her Valentine frog too.

January 22

My babies.

I go back to work tomorrow.  I hope to keep taking photos, it might just take me a while to get them posted.

January 3

Clara and Spencer's cousin, Raegan, came to visit.  Spencer's legs look so skinny, they are getting chubbier.

January 3

Clara fixing my hair.  I love having my hair brushed!  I'm trying to train her to enjoy doing it. :)

January 4

Clara is still sucking her thumb, even after Santa talked to her about trying to stop sucking her thumb.

January 5

Clara likes to pretend it is raining inside, probably since we gave her an umbrella for Christmas and she hasn't been able to actually use it yet.

January 6

Snoozing away, which he is very good at doing during the day, not always at night.  Look at that full belly!

January 7

January 8

We had Grandma and Papa over for Grandma's birthday and had yummy manicotti.

January 9

Clara's excited face aunt Lisa taught her last Christmas and she still loves to use it!

January 10

January 10

Clara was playing hide-and-seek after a no nap preschool day.  She got tired of waiting for us to find her and fell asleep.

January 11

Sometimes swaddling works, sometimes Spencer will fight it and groan to get out of it.  Here, he is peacefully sleeping, during the day again.

January 12

Two Pinterest recipes I tried, which were both a success and yummy.

January 13

This was Spencer's first outing to Eric's school.  This was the outfit I had purchased to bring Spencer home from the hospital.  It is about to fit him when he is six weeks old (or when he was actually due).

January 14

We took Clara to an MU basketball game.  She picked up the tiger ears at the store and didn't even have to ask for them, Eric bought them for her. :)

Swinging outside with just a jacket, on January 16.

January 17

Again, Clara fell asleep after a day of preschool and no nap.

January 18

Another Pinterest recipe.  They were great, but I am not making them for a while. I ate almost all of them while Eric was gone to a conference.  Clara made me put some in another container to save them for daddy.

January 19

Another snooze in the car seat.

January 20

Several people have told me the second child gets left out on a lot of things, writing down and remembering different things that they do.  So this is my attempt at remembering things about Spencer, and Clara.  So far I have taken at least one photo every day, but I haven't posted one yet.  So here is catching up on January.

Happy Birthday/Due Date Spencer

Instead of getting ready to have a baby, I'm getting ready to go back to work.  I can't believe Spencer is almost 7 weeks old!

I have been taking a lot of photos, I just haven't had time to post them.  Maybe I will get that done this weekend before returning to work, because I probably won't have time to post as often!
