Uh-Oh!

Baby Clay has learned a new word… he now says “Uh-oh”! ( I don’t know that this really qualifies as a word, but I like to count it as one.) He loves to drop things on the floor whether he’s in his highchair, crib, or baby condo. Every time he does it we would always say “Uh-oh”. At first he started just saying the “Uh” part, but now he’s figured out the “Oh” part. It’s very cute! I’ve been working on getting it on video, but he’s being a bit camera shy.

He also seems to be getting out of the “grumpy phase” he was in last week. I really think it was due to teething (along with a little cold), but now he’s back to normal! He eats everything I put in front of him… his new favs being hard boiled eggs (only the white part), avocado, and dried cranberries (all random… I know!). He still is breaking my heart every time I drop him off at daycare… he wraps those chubby arms around my leg and holds on for dear life when he knows I’m about to leave. As soon as I open the door, big tears well up in his eyes and he starts up his pitiful cry! Yes, breaks my heart every time! I’m really hoping he gets over this phase soon!

He’s got a new pastime… he loves to pull all the Tupperware containers out of the cabinet. We’ve childproofed all the “dangerous” cabinets, but left a few available for Baby Clay to explore. The Tupperware one is his favorite. It takes him about 2.5 seconds to have it all over the floor. He likes to drop it on the floor to hear the sound it makes… the louder the better! This holds his attention for about 15 seconds so I can clean a couple of his bottles.

Not much else has been going on around here… Mark and I had a wonderful anniversary!! He got a room at the new Westin in town and we stayed there Saturday night. We went into town a little early so I could do a few things before dinner. It was the best weekend!!! Even though we were only 35 minutes from our house it felt like we were on vacation! I got to do all my favorite things!! I went shopping (while Mark napped)… I had my Starbucks (toffee mocha chip Frap – which I HIGHLY recommend)… We ate at PF Chang’s with our good friends Emily and Jeremy… and then I got to have Moe’s for lunch Sunday before we headed home. SO. MUCH. FUN!!!

You may have also noticed that I changed my blog up... again. For some reason folks weren't seeing the words on my blog. So, BJ, let me know if you can read this :)!

And now the pictures… Here are a few pictures of Mr. Destructo himself playing with his newfound toys:

And this is his new fall/winter hat he's showing off. He hates hats and left it on for about 3 seconds. I ordered him some cute outfits from Gap.com for his 1 year pictures and I got this cute hat to go with one of the shirts.

Happy Wednesday!!! Hope you have a great rest of the week!!! The weekend can't get here soon enough!
