Sweet Little Claire

Just a quick little update on our little Claire. She continues to be a delight to our family. She started smiling a few weeks ago, and she always has plenty of them to give. Unless, of course, I am holding a camera.

Each month I take a picture of my kids next to their stuffed animal we made them at Build-a-Bear. Here are Claire's pictures at one month and last week at two months. Seriously, EVERY time I see anyone they talk about how she's filling out. She's getting to be a chunk!



Sleeping has turned into a challenge. During out week at the beach house, Claire would wake up anytime she was put down during a nap. We sort of chalked it up to being somewhere unfamiliar, and there were so many people willing to hold her, that she pretty much got held while she slept for a week straight. So now I'm attempting to undo that lovely habit. It's hard, especially with Kenley and Parker running around all the time. I have shed many tears of frustration in the last few weeks. But, to end on a good note, the other day Kenley and Parker wandered out of their bedroom each holding a swaddled baby. They're experts in baby care already!
