Claire Updates

Things are finally settling down with us (meaning Dan can walk, and Claire and I are no longer sick!) so we have had some time to play with our new camera

This is Claires least favorite part of the day - tummy time! This must have been as soon I put her down because once she is down it doesn't take long for her to start drooling and screaming.
Kristin and Andrea were around this weekend to help Dan and I take care of ourselves and Claire. Kristin had bought Claire this outfit before she was born and she never wore it because it was too big. Well, with a little modification for the cooler weather, (add tights!), we were able to get her in it, although the skirt still falls off if you hold her up.
Saturday we went shopping because Claire is still in 0-3 month clothes and we don't have a lot of clothes warm enough to send her to day care. Who would have thought we would need long pants in that size? My easy solution was to buy her jeans that would match any long sleeve onesies she has. Well, Little Miss No Waist doesn't even fit in the 0-3 month jeans - as soon as Dan moved his hand they were around her ankles again! By the time they do fit, they will probably be too short.

So, I am having a bad hair day - what do you want me to do about it??
She either looks at the camera or smiles, we don't usually get both. I don't know why her hair looks so red in all the pictures....

The Aunties gave Claire a bath and she loved it!
Finally, a smile and a look - this one makes it all worth it!

Thats are funny Mere - but you have to clarify the bad hair day was because she had JUST woken up from her nap and her hair got messed up because she was just a little hot!!! I think thats why she looks a little dazed too haha

She really is too cute! Great job on the outfit Kris, and don't worry baby Claire we all are entitled to a bad hair day once in awhile and your beautiful face totally makes up for it!
Love,

Great pictures, of course. What else could one expect. And Andrea, let's check your hair right after you awake. Methinks Claire wins that battle easily! Keep the pics coming and I love all of them on the baby page.... Grump...
