This is the face of concentration...

Claire sticks out her tongue when she's really concentrating. It's hard work pulling yourself up on a semi-stationary object!

Happy Easter!

Claire had a very busy, and very happy Easter. She hopes you all did too!

She's Back!

Claire's had a rough couple of days. She has a bad cold... ear infection, conjunctivitis, runny nose, and a cough. Poor little thing. We took her to the doctor yesterday and she seems to be feeling better now that she's got a few doses of medicine under her belt. She is quite the trooper about taking her medicine... gobbles it right down. We've decided that she's not really enjoying her regular food now that she's had bubble gum flavored antibiotics, but we're glad she's feeling better.

It's Spring!

We took Claire for a walk today in the beautiful weather and just had to stop for a swing.

Sleeping Through the Night

A good night's sleep does wonders for a girl's disposition. Claire waited until this week to sleep through the night. We're very happy she's reached this milestone.

9 month checkup

Claire's 9 month check up was today. We got a good report from the doctor. Hopefully, we'll be able to get some pictures uploaded this weekend. Here are her vital stats: 17 lbs 4 oz (15th percentile), 28 inches (50th percentile), and head circumfrence in the 90th percentile.

The doctor thinks that Claire is doing great (and so do we)!
