coluds and bubbles also seem to grow in size at times then should we consider such things as living?

Dear student,
Being able to grow in size of a thing do not confirm them being living or non-living. Some of the features of living things include:\
(a) All living things need nutrition.
(b) Living things reproduce their own kind.
(c) All living things respire.
(d) They excrete or throw out any part of the food which they cannot use or store.
(e) All living things, plants as well as animals, grow for a time till they become mature.
(f) All living things grow old and finally die.
(g) They tend to react or respond to their environment.
(h) Living things are made up of tiny units called cells.  

Hence, despite being able to grow in size, clouds and bubbles are not living things.

Regards
