One of the Boys

I know, I keep saying she is a tom boy...but seriously, she is! She had fun this afternoon play ball hockey with Isaac and Daddy. She shows great form with the stick.

And the group pic.

Flashback Then and Now

Remember Claire at 5 months....

And now 10 months later!

Her hair is such a disaster. Total tom boy in the making.

Again, remember Claire at 10 months...

And now 5 months later!

It's crazy to think that these photos are only 5 months a part. What a big change you see in her. As you can see, she likes to live dangerously.

Having a conversation with Claire at 10 months:



Having a conversation with Claire at 15 months:

The words she says most often: No, Up, Mine, Baby. And sometimes she will say Money! Seriously, it's funny. And all of a sudden she started saying Elmo. We do not watch or have any Elmo stuff in the house either! Our baby is no more...it makes me sad, and no, it's not time to have another. We have our hands plenty full!

Crazy Hair Twins

I took these last week and forgot to post them. I thought it was hilarious. My kids wake up with the craziest hair ever.

They looked so cute having breakfast together.

They look like mini "Ace Ventura's".

A Big Girl Now

We've been having issues getting Claire to eat lately. She would fuss until we took her out of her high chair and have her sit on our lap during dinner. Well tonight I said let's not put her high chair tray on and just push her up to the table....and it worked! All she wanted was to be treated like a big girl and sit at the table. And I guess having yummy corn on the cob helps too!

She later grabbed my glass and tried to drink from a cup herself! She spilled most of it on her pants but she was eager to try which was a great sign. Our little girl is growing up too fast. :(

Goddess

How cute is this? Claire would stick out her cheek and expect Isaac to give her smooches and blow bubbles. When he was done, she would go back for more. It was hilarious.

That look on her face says I have you eating out of the palm of my hands! Doesn't she know it!

Sick Day

Poor Claire has not been feeling well. She's missed daycare most of the week and has been going stir-crazy from being indoors. We took her out for some fresh air to rake the leaves....which she loves! She looks adorable in her pink snow suit.

It was actually quite warm so we took off her hat. She is licking her lips for ice cream!

She loved climbing up and down our old rickety front steps and knocking on the door. Looks like Daddy is going to have to get going on this project in the spring...hehe. How can we say no to this adorable face?

15 Month Milestone

Today Claire is 15 months old! I wasn't going to take her next monthly shot till 18 months, but she was looking way too cute this morning. She never lets me touch her hair and then one day she came home from daycare looking like Pebbles Flinstone. She saw one of the other little girls getting their hair done, and she wanted to do her hair too! Here is her new monthly photo:

Another cute shot.

And this just says trouble. Yes, she's standing on the rocker and yes, we told her not to, and yes she didn't listen, and yes, we took a picture. It was all supervised!

And the slideshow of months past:

Tomboy in the Making

Playing with her brother's dinky cars...with full conentration. She reminds me of Isaac when he was younger :(

Stopping to pose for a picture.

She's no girly girl.
