My little Clayton is about to be 8 months old!!  Some moments I feel as if he's been with us forever while others I feel like I just had him. He's such a joy and source of happiness for all of us that I can't imagine a life without our Clayton Ryan. I'm so incredibly grateful. I've been keeping up with his monthly pictures with Mozzarella but just haven't taken the time to post them until now. I should mention Mozzarella is Fiona's beloved bear.  She asked Santa for him a couple years ago and even though he takes up half her bed she sleeps with him every night.  (along with 20 other stuffed animals)  A huge thank you to Fiona for letting us use him as a point of reference for Clay's rapid growth. 4 months 4 Month Stats: Weight- 6310g (13 lbs 14 ounces) 25th percentile Length- 61cm (24inches) 10th percentile Head- circumference  41.5cm (16inches) 50th percentile 5 months 6 months 6 Months Stats: Weight- 7...

I just came across these gems from last month...  "Thank you for being my dad" She gifted him with a self-portrait   This little girl loves her little brother so much.   Can you see the look of uncertainty on his face? I think that sums up his feelings about her. Maybe because she does things like put bubbles on his head...  Then there's these two... Double Trouble.

I'm hoping to post pictures from our Sydney trip this week.  "Hoping" being the key word.  Eventually I definitely will because it was such a fantastic trip that deserves to be preserved in this space forever. In the meantime here are a few random pictures... While in Sydney taking a ferry is a must. How else would you get this view of the iconic Opera House? enjoying the ferry trip  Luna Park, Sydney scene from our picnic spot in the Botanic Gardens We were so fortunate to have Vivid Sydney happening while we were there. The light shows on the Opera House and buildings was amazing. It certainly made our night ferry ride more exciting. Ry captured some great pictures of the light show with his mobile. We also got a few video clips of the light show and the kids playing at the end of the day. Here they are...

Some Trees just beg to be climbed. Recently we found a few... we climbed up. ry just jumped up.
