Being a baby, Clark does new things every day. I'm not able to capture all of them in pictures and the pictures I do get aren't always the best quality, but here are a few from this past week.
We went out for a milkshake Monday night to celebrate Michael finishing seminary and getting a 91% on his English Bible Exam and 100% on his Westminster Catechism exam which were his last hurdles to graduation. Clark just learned how to drink from a straw, so I let him try out his new skill on my milkshake. The boy wanted to drink the whole thing! He also has gel in his hair because we found it in the bathroom right before we left, so this could be two firsts in one: First milkshake and first hair gel. He smelled like Michael :)
The other day I was checking out at Walmart with my weeks worth of groceries. As the cashier put the bag in the cart Clark reached back and grabbed a banana, pulled it off the stalk and started eating it peel and all. I didn't get a picture of it, but once I realized he could eat a it without cutting it up I gave him a banana for breakfast. He did great!
Clark's first drawing. Tonight Clark picked up a pen and this piece of paper which were sitting on the coffee table and started drawing on it. He was actually holding the pen correctly and writing on the paper. He's such a little copycat. I didn't help him at all, except to write his name and date (now that would be phenomenal if he could already write his name!)

I definitely see all of the letters in there... an L, an A, a K, maybe two of them, and a C-- needs to work on the R... smart little fellow.
