Clark!

Clark was born on October 4th, 2011 at 5:57 pm. He weighed 9 lbs 5 oz and was 20 3/4 inches long. Healthy and handsome! He's a wonderful baby and such a good eater. I can't believe how BIG he is! His newborn clothes don't even fit him-- he went straight to 0-3 month sized clothes.

Clark, we're so glad you're here! We all love you so much!

40 Weeks Pregnant
