Clay's Favorite



So Clay has a new favorite toy/treat. He loves this thing they call the fresh food feeder, as do I. I will put a grape or an apple in it and he will go to town chopping and sucking out the juice. Its great because you don't have to worry about chocking, nothing but juice can get out. He will entertain himself for a good 30 minutes with this thing. What will they think of next?
Happy Anniversary Ryan and Alma, We Love You!!

One horrible, no good, very bad day

Clay had his 6 month check up today and it wasn't a very nice check up. I told the doctor that I was concerned that Clay would need another circumcision because the skin looked like it had grown back over the penis, which I tried to pull it back during every diaper change like they tell you too. So he looked at it and all he said was yeah it does look like it did and all of a sudden he pushed back that skin and it started to bleed a little and Clay got a look like "what just happened down there?" than started to cry uncontrollably. The doctor cleaned it up and I picked him up to comfort him. The doctor said that he usually doesn't do that but he needed to make sure that the skin wasn't suck because if it was he would have needed another circumcision. I'm glad he doesn't. Well Clay calmed down after a minute or so and we finished the check up. After he left the nurse came in short after to give him his shots. Now I'm not a very good mother because I had forgotten Tylenol to give to him after so of course he cried even worse than before and it took me a while to calm him down. I think because his penis was sore and his legs were hurting it just made everything worse. Besides that everything looks great. He weighs a little over 20 lbs and 29 inches long. He is a BIG healthy boy. He is my little Champ.
