Huge Pizza!

 We took our first trip this past weekend since Clark's arrival. 

We went to see family in San Antonio. Our first stop was Alex and Kim's new home. They took a big group of us to a local pizza joint there called Big Lou's Pizza. This place has a 42 inch pizza so we gave it a try. I think there were 14 of us and we still didn't eat it all! It was definitely yummy though!

 Back at the house, Mabry enjoyed posing for the camera...

 And Clark got lots of love.

 We also spent a night at Brad and Rhonda's. 

We know these two (Clark and Harris) will be big buddies one day soon! 

Smiles

Clark started smiling this week! 

I was able to capture some of those sweet gummy grins...

 He likes to save smiles for Big Sister too. I love seeing their relationship grow!

My 3 Year Old

Mabry had her 3 year well check-up and, as we all know, got an excellent report. :)

She is 34 lbs putting her in the 75th-90th percentile.

She is 38.5 inches putting her in the 75th-90th percentile too. 

Mabry's percentiles have not changed throughout her growth over the years.

I have to say that having a 3 year old is so much fun. Mabry has such great personality and definitely knows how to have fun. She loves singing and dancing and, most of all, performing. 

God has truly blessed our family with such a beautiful, sweet, and funny girl.

Happy Valentine's Day!

 To you from my sweet Valentines...

Clark is 1 Month Old!

Clark went to his 1 month appointment on February 7th. He is one growing boy!

He is 11 lbs 10 oz which is the 95th percentile. 

He is also 23.3 inches long putting him in the 97th+ percentile. 

I am proud of my big boy! :)

 Clark turned a month old on February 2nd! 

Has it already been a month since we were awaiting his arrival at the hospital?! He has grown so much this month. He has started being awake longer and is entering the infant phase and leaving the newborn phase. We are still waiting for longer stretches of sleep at night though. I know that we are so close! As any baby, Clark loves to be held. It does not take him long to fall asleep in his daddy's arms. 

I was trying to prop him for his picture, but apparently, he wasn't feeling it.
I just thought I would share this one. 

This probably won't be the last time I see this expression. :)

 I had to wake this sweet baby for his bath right after this picture. I love that big tummy!

A Haircut with a Bonus

I took Mabry to get her haircut at 'Cuts for Kids.' She was overdue for a trim. Little did I know that you couldn't just get a simple haircut there. They had a whole package that included lots of little treats.

 So Mabry was in for one big treat with this haircut!

 She had her hair washed with chocolate smelling shampoo and water that tickled. 

She loved sitting in the Barbie jeep watching Dora. She was not even aware that her hair was being cut.

 Then she got to have it styled. The hairdresser gave her two cute braids with purple sparkle clips.

 Then she got the big bonus... Her first time to have her nails polished! I was so proud of the subtle color she picked (pale pink sparkle) and how still she sat. Then she got sparkle star stamps on the back of her hands. She was fascinated!

 Here's my beautiful girl showing off the finished product.

 She left with a big smile on her face, a fresh haircut, sparkle nails and stamps, along with a balloon, a lollipop, and a green sparkle ring. 

What a special treat for our sweet, special girl!

Donuts with Dad/1st Play-date

 This week, Mabry's school had 'Donuts with Dad.' What a great thing for the kids and their dads (and the moms too!) Chad got to take Mabry to school and eat yummy chocolate donuts with her and her friends. They both told me how fun it was.

 On the same day, Clark had his first play-date!
He got to play with Hayes (4 1/5 mos.). 

Hayes's mommy, Pam, got them adorable matching outfits just for this occasion. The cool thing is that Mabry's first play-date was with Hayes's big bro Grayer.  Hayes and Clark, like their big siblings, will get lots more playtime together.

Hey Buddy!

 After all the fun playing, Clark tuckered out in the middle of the floor. 

Oh, to sleep like a newborn!

 Bonus: Here's our lil ball player. (3 weeks old)
