Our Story...: December 2015

So much has been going on here in the Clark home. We are anxiously awaiting the news of where we will be going next for Preston's job. He is finishing up his residency this month and has been interviewing and applying like crazy. There are several places up in the air so we are looking forward to seeing which one sticks and is right for our family. Pres will also be graduating with his masters degree on December 19th in San Antonio. We are so proud of him and all the work he has put in.

Beckham is growing up so quickly. He is now almost 7 months old! I feel like we were just at the hospital welcoming him into our family. Now he's sitting up, rolling around, has 2 teeth, and eats like a champion. He loves his baby food. He really enjoys Jackson. He can watch him all day. He tries to talk to him and even will try to mimic things he does. I love this age because they enjoy playing together. Jack is mostly teaching Beckham what he knows which can be good and bad haha. I have to watch him.

Jackson is definitely a toddler now. He is everywhere and loves being outside. If I allowed him, he'd watch movies all day long. He is really into dinosaurs, trains, animals, and books. He can do all the noises of animals and says words when he feels like it. He can say thank you, bye bye, and a few other two word pairings. He is one I get frustrated with because he will say words for awhile and then decide not to. He chooses when he wants to say something and sometimes he just doesn't say it anymore. I'm learning patience :) He loves giving high five and waving hello and goodbye to people. He is at a very fun age. He enjoys drawing, coloring, and stickers. We have even made a few crafts together.

For Thanksgiving this year we were happy to host Mom, Dad, Erin and our cousin Kane. We had so much fun playing games and eating like the world would end soon. It's always great to spend the holidays with family and we were so thankful my parents and Er made the trip down to us. Here's a few pics from the photo shoot I did of the boys and some fun things we have done in the past month or so.

Jackson's first big boy hair cut. We usually just buzz it but we thought we would cut it this time.

Pres got his hair done at the same time so Jack kept looking over and smiling at him. Adorable!

Six month check up for Beckham. Jack got a flu shot while Beckham received all his vaccinations. They both did a great job. Very brave and strong. Almost no tears. Just the initial shock and then they forgot about it.
