Claire at the park

We are lucky to have this great little playground down the street from our house built for 3-6 year olds. We have been visiting there more lately. Claire loves it. And apparently she loves or doesn't mind wearing some leopard print :). A few recent pics:

Happy Friday everyone!

Thanks, Claire

A few days ago...a story was on the news about Kim Jong-Un. Claire stopped what she was doing and looked up to the TV, pointed and said "Mama". Great, thanks Claire.

And because I can't put up a post w/o a picture of the little minx:

Future farm girl?

On Saturday we attended the College of Veterinary Medicine's open house. Claire loved it! We all did, really. We saw cows, horses, chicks, goats and lots of dogs. She has been mooing, neighing, and barking ever since.

Running wild through the classroom hallways.

Nana and Doc week

Check out how much fun Claire had hanging out with Nana and Doc last week:

These were all pictures we received via text. We really missed our girl but really appreciated having some time away! Thanks for keeping Claire for us Doc and Nana!


AND a big Happy Birthday shout out to Mamie! We love you, hope you are having a great day.

Nani week

Last week Claire's daycare was closed so Nani came to help with Claire coverage during the day. Thanks, Mom! They lunched and strolled. Played and snuggled. A good time was had by all. This week Claire gets to go to Liberty to hang out with Nana and Doc while Adam and I ski Vail. We are so thankful for generous parents/grandparents that are willing to lend a hand watching the little pistol.

One of Nani's bags. Claire thought it was funny to climb in it!

Happy Easter!

Can't I just drink my milk, mom? Early on Easter morning, still working the bed head. And YES, she is still wearing Christmas pjs.

All cleaned up and ready to go to church! 

At our friends house for the egg hunt! Claire is on the far right.

She didn't venture too far from the porch but still managed to find 2 eggs!

Back at home and still on the search for eggs. She loved Easter 2012!

15 month stats

NOT happy about the impending shots.

STATS:
 Height: 31 3/4 inches (92%)
Weight: 24 lbs (75%)
Head Circumference: 48 (>95%)
She took her shots like a champ and we got out of there.

So behind!

What? Its April 2nd? How did that happen? We FAILED to wish Uncle Ben a very happy birthday yesterday. Happy birthday Uncle Ben, you April fool!! :)

March photo of the day, day 30: toy
Adam is Claire's favorite toy. We completely FAILED at the last day of the photo challenge too, day 31: where you relax. We did a lot of relaxing on Saturday but just didn't get any great pics. Oh well!

We had a great time in STL on Palm Sunday. We had a nice lunch at Aunt Lyle and Uncle Ray's house. Claire loved the ham and rolls. 

Sitting in her cousin Andrew's old high chair. Playing with Uncle Ray  who is just a little anxious about the big game tonight. GO CATS! 

 And then Claire went on her first Easter egg hunt! It was HOT (90 degrees) but she loved it.

On the hunt. She found one egg and was very pleased. Oh, and we also picked up Nani. She is staying with us for the week while Linda is on vacation.
