Baby Site Guestbook

Just so we don't forget...here are the guestbook entries from our old babysite!

Grandma Nancy
You are officially a big brother! Though you weren't overly impressed with your visit to the hospital to meet her for the first time. Little do you know the power and influence you will have over little Lyla. I had a big brother and for Lyla there is nothing better. You are so dear Steven and so very sweet. Can't wait to see you and Lyla again.Much love,Grandma Nancy

You're getting so big and handsome! With only two little teeth poking through you may have to skip the chocolate bunny and jelly beans this Easter and stick with the pureed carrots.Happy Spring and Easter!!

Spending the Thanksgiving holiday with the newest Clark family was wonderful. Steven with you and your cousin Ava joining the family this year Christmas is new once again.

Steven Thomas Clark what a joy!!!! Only the most beautiful little boy in the world. We were so lucky to be there for your arrival and see your proud parents. As the doctor said Sara, you are the WOMAN!!! Tommy you were a wonderful loving and supporting husband and dad though Sara did all the hard work with much grace. We love you three and are so happy to know your new little family is safe and sound at home.

Lideana
Tom, you should trust me from the beginning. I told you baby Clark was a boy. I'm so excited for both of you. I deserved a six pack, actually one beer will be fine, for this correct forecast. HEEHEHEHEHE!!! It is a baby boy...

09/05/2007
Grandma Nancyand Grandpa Steve
Can't believe that September has finally arrived, I'm sure you two are more than just a little excited! Our camera stays in the car full time now and our cell phones are on so we are ready to hit the road the minute our little grandbaby says it's time. Tommy you say the 7th, I'm going with the 10th, the doctor with the 18th-wonder if any of us will be close. I just can't wait to see the newest Clark. Love to all three of you.

Matt, Jill, and Lucas Strohmeyer
Congrats!!! We've been meaning to write, but time got away from us. Enjoy these last few weeks (if you can)!!! Regardless of whether it's a boy or girl, Matt says he's still giving your baby the deformed brown scarf he started knitting 3 years ago (if he can find it). Can't wait to hear the good news!!!!

08/23/2007
Jolene and Mark

08/19/2007
Dave and Greatchen Carlson
Dave is rooting for him (Gretchen thinks you look like you're carring a boy) to be born on September 12, exactly 30 years from the day David Carlson was born in Kansas City, MO. WOW, that would be crazy. Stay off the feet, and get lots of relaxing messages from Tom whenever you can :)

08/18/2007
Maria D.
Oops! The comment below was from me, but I treated the "name" line like a "subject" line. Don't worry, I'll leave it up to your smarter friends to teach Baby Clark how to follow directions! HA!P.S. Where are the pics of you and Grandma Nancy chugging from the baby bottles?? :)

08/18/2007
Updates!

Gretchen Carlson
I want to see a July belly picure! You're looking great and we can't wait for baby Clark to arrive. Baby Carlson is hardly a baby anymore and is more and more fun every week. Hope you're doing well: your acid reflux is only after big meals and your ankles are still small :)

Congratulations from the "other" Sara and Tom! I have to tell you it's a little strange...same names...same baby due date.

It is nice to be able to read all about what is happening. I hope we are able to see you soon. Let me know of any baby showers that may be happening.

03/05/2007
Grandma and Grandpa Clark
I wish we could see the excitement on both of your faces. That little heart, beating so rapidly is absolutely amazing. It makes the pants that won't button worthwhile! Take good care of all three of you.

First Update of 2009

Wow, it has been awhile!

Everything has been going really great lately. Steven has started to find his words. It is so fun to hear him say All Done, Bye Bye, Ba(th - he doesn't really get the "th"), and just general babbling. He loves to play in his new tent and we found a play kitchen on craigslist and you'd think it was the best toy in the whole world! I also found him a little desk. He looks like such a big boy when he sits at it. However, he is also in a climbing mode so we have to watch him like a hawk.

The baby in the belly is doing good too. Very active and growing everyday. We are starting to get all of our baby gear back out of storage and we've moved furniture to get the second crib into the "kids" room.

We'll try to be more frequent with updates but no promises, we've got our hands full!
