Clayton can feed himself pretty well. He really doesn't seem to like getting dirty. We went to the 'farm' today so Greg could shoot a gun. He really liked the ear muffs.

For Patsy

We made you a video this morning. Hope you like it.

Greta

We have confirmed that Greta Ann really is Greta Ann. She sure is pretty. Clayton wasn't too impressed with the seeing her for the first time.

We've been earning lots of stickers lately. Clayton is a happy boy.

I've been playing with my Photoshop program. I'm trying to find some pictures to frame for Greta. I've got some more pictures that I've 'snatched' from Tim Ernst. I may do them all like this and frame them for her walls. Not sure if this resolution will be enough.

Back to work. Yesterday was a special day. I made Greg a good supper and some chocolate chip cookies. Clayton helped with cleanup.

Clayton and I enjoy playing in Greta's room. I like it because I can sit in a chair and not on the floor. I bought Greta a cabbage patch doll at a garage sale yesterday. The other doll in the picture was Greg's, Joshua.

Update on Rick. He's still in ICU on the ventilator. He's been opening his eyes and moving extremeties. He is a true champion. His collapsed lung is no more. We are anxious for his recovery. Clayton sure misses him and Gelica. Thanks Amanda for the sailor hat. Clayton dressed himself this morning (picked out his clothes.) He did fall asleep with the hat on last night.

Fair

According to the sign. Clayton is tall enough to ride all the children's rides without an adult. He is 38 inches tall. Lately he has been eating nonstop. Growth spurt? Greg thinks when he gets to be a teenage we will have to get extra jobs to feed and clothe him.

Zoo

Last weekend we went to Springfield. We had 'bombed' our house for bugs and had to leave for the day. We went to the fair and the zoo. Clayton really loves being on the go.

Tool man Clayton. Notice his tractor is flipped over. He's been working on it.
