I say no!

Claire's new favorite thing to do...shaking her head "no", especially while eating! Ignore dumb comments from Mommy in the background...

8 months!

I guess it's time for my monthly update.... I'll never have a famous blog at this rate. Oh well.

So Claire is 8 months old now. Crazy. I have no idea how that happened, since it seems like she was just born last month. She's growing like crazy, but hasn't been to the doctor in over a month, so I don't know what she weighs, but I'm sure it's over 15 pounds. She's LOVING solid food, and will eat anything you put in front of her. She has a baby-crush on Gerber Puffs, and has learned how to feed them to herself, she's very proud of that. I've been giving her small bites of people-food, and haven't found anything yet that she doesn't like. But without any teeth, she's still pretty limited.

Claire's new trick for this week is saying Dada. All the time. Like she only has one parent. Dadadadadada all day long. But I think I almost got a Mama out of her today, so that should be next. I sure hope so!!

We've had a busy last few weekends, two weeks ago we went to the G-Day game. We had a good time, but she was worn out by the time the game was over, and fell asleep in her BabyBjorn on the way back to the car. I think Daddy has learned that football is not quite the same with two kids trailing along (we took Tripp to the game too). Then the next day was Easter, so we went to church, then Aaron took her over to see his grandparents, then we went to Shiree and Jack's for family Easter. Then my parents came down, mom to babysit, and dad to visit overnight. So it was a busy weekend! This weekend we took Saturday off to just chill, and then Claire and I went to Calhoun for Caroline's 4th birthday party, where Caroline thought it was cute that Claire's dress matched the napkins! After the party we met mom at the outlets and stocked up on some pj's an summer outfits at Carters. Spoiled little baby!!

That's about it for now, the required pictures (the interesting part!) are below, enjoy!

And the game kind of wore her out, she passed out as soon as it was over.
