Is that a TOOTH?
Breaking news – I think I finally have a tooth spotting to report. Claire’s got something sharp poking out of her bottom gums, you can see a hole and feel a sharp edge, I’m just waiting for “visual confirmation” before making the big announcement. It seems Claire WILL have a set chompers (go ahead, breathe a sigh of relief if you were worried). I get … Continue reading Is that a TOOTH?
First Father’s Day
I intended to post these photos a bit earlier, but we’ve been without power and the internet (again) due to a storm. We had a lovely BBQ for father’s day and Claire had all the important guys in her life present – her father, grandfather and her great-grandfather. If ever there was an excuse to get out the camera – this was it. After a … Continue reading First Father’s Day
Claire & Grandma Caca
Here are some cute photos I missed of Claire with my Mom – the infamous “CaCa.” We’re hoping she’ll have some internet access soon so she can comment again. For now she receives the blog in print. These photos are from the visit where I whooped her in Scrabble thanks to a few seven letter bonuses (“mexican” and “wombats” if you were wondering). Continue reading Claire & Grandma Caca

Claire doesn’t seem to need much help standing anymore. She’s now doing “wall pushups” on every flat surface in the house, although she seems to prefer the dishwasher – that strange mirrored baby in there makes her smile. The butt-out pose has been perfected and Claire’s dimpled bottom has been cushioning her landings (none of which are graceful yet). Our little daredevil has even tried … Continue reading Look Out World!
8 Months Old!
What – a new banner doesn’t count as an update?! The internet has been down a few days so I’ve been busying myself with Apple’s iMovie.I promise it’s worth the wait! This video showcases some of Claire’s newest accomplishments – crawling, solids and being cute while playing 🙂 There’s also a little montage at the end for father’s day. The video itself doesn’t have sound … Continue reading 8 Months Old!
Matt & Baby, First Cheerios!
The quote went something like this “I don’t feel compelled to hold other people’s children.” That was about 8 months ago when Claire was a newborn. Now look at Matt and his new friend 🙂 These are from Memorial Day weekend, I can’t believe I forgot to post them! And from the same day, here’s Claire wearing Daddy’s hat. What a silly baby. Yesterday I … Continue reading Matt & Baby, First Cheerios!
Crawling Camera Attack
I’m trying a direct upload – comment so I know it works. Otherwise I’m off to YouTube and I’ll try it that way! http://www.youtube.com/get_player Continue reading Crawling Camera Attack
