Clark/Hirst Reunion in Savannah, GA

We took our first plane trip with Nelson to visit Jamie's family in Savannah, GA.  From Helena, that is 3 flights and 8 hours in our laps each way - but Nelson was a champ.  He did a great job flying and he had a blast seeing his family in Savannah.  He even got a new nickname from his Great Uncle Ray: "Wild Man".  Nelson also got his first ocean experience.  While he liked the water (even though he fell in), the sand was his favorite.

Out to eat with the family

The hotel tub was a little lower, so when Nelson tried to climb in he was actually successful - clothes on and all.

Nelson was checking out the owl - he new exactly what it was, saying "Owl" as soon as he saw it.

First time in the ocean!

So fun!

He fell in and got wet, so Grandma let him wear her fleece.  He looked like a little monk!

Sand is the best!

Uncle John!  You're crazy swimming out there!

One more chance to wear shorts before heading back to MT (thanks Mary Jo for the outfit!)

Annual Capitol Photo

We took Nelson to the flowers in front of the capitol to do our annual photo (click here for story on reason for pics).  It's been a few weeks since we took the photos - he was about 14 months at the time.  He's grown so much since last year!  He looked very handsome, but he also had a blast running around the capitol grounds afterward.

Sitting like a big boy!

This is the photo from last year - he was so tiny just laying there!

Look at me run!!!

He loves climbing steps, so all the capitol steps were a great adventure.

Let me in!
