21 Month Milestone
Here is how you get her to smile: say show me your teeth.
Her mischievious look...she wears this one quite often.
A hug for the bear.
And a kiss too.
We have also seen in the last 3 months that she loves to sing! She is a lover of common nursery rhymes such as Oh McDonald, Twinkle, Twinkle and The Wheels on the Bus. And just recently, she started singing Baa, Baa, Black Sheep, which I got on film (press play below).
She has also mastered another thing....climbing! She managed to climb out of her crib so we have moved her to a toddler bed for now. It's actually great timing since we would of had to change her soon anyway with the new baby coming. Here are some pictures of her with the bed we borrowed from cousin Ryan. Now it is totally not jiving with the girly decor of her room (and I try to black that out) but in all honesty, this bed is completely Claire - as a lover of her big brother and soccer and Elmo ofcourse. Here are some cute photos of her with her new bed.
Check out all her stuffed animal buddies jumping on the bed.
Posing at the headboard that shows off soccer elmo.
And ofcourse a picture of Claire and Elmo.
And of Elmo and Elmo...Claire insisted I take this.
She has been doing well in the evenings with not getting out of bed. She has rolled off the side a few times, but we've got cushions down so she hasn't hurt herself. And the slideshow of months past:

Happy Mother's Day
Isaac made me this lovely bracelet. I was very impressed.
And to think he couldn't impress me more, he wrote me the sweetest letter from the heart:
Dear Mommy,
I think you are a great mother with many special qualities. Some of these excellent qualities are that you are perfect, understanding and most of all you are super duper pretty. Some of my favourite moments with you are when we would go on vacation to Florida and go on all the rides at Disney World. Also when you would spend all of your time to throw me the best party in the world. I enjoy every minute with you when we are doing activities like going on bike rides and walks. Sometimes I wish that you could keep us with me slow poke!! Haha... I appreciate all your help on paying my soccer fees and all of your wonderful meals that you prepare especially for me! You're the greatest Mom in the whole world.
Love Isaac
Okay....now tell me that wasn't just the sweetest thing you ever read. It seriously brought tears to my eyes because I could tell he really thought about what he was going to write. What a great kid!
And if Claire didn't already spoil me enough, she also made me this lovely t-shirt at school. Check out the pics.
The sunflower is made from her hands, fingers and feet...no wonder she came home with paint on her clothes this week! So cute!
And to top it off, Anthony took us out to breakfast at Cora's - yummy!
He also got me the new Carrie Underwood CD. I know he would have liked to take me to her upcoming concert on November 4th, but I'm thinking the baby is going to show up this day!
What a great family!

A New Clemente on the Way!
The baby was feisty and did not like having its photo taken. Check out the baby sucking it's thumb. Check out our new ticker counting down the days.
