growing up

could she really be 6 months old?  

Claire brings so much joy to our family we can't stand it.  Jacob asks every day why she can't stay just the way she is.  Oh Jacob, I feel the exact same way.




(this is so Claire's look- love the little smirk--  also love the set of cheeks this girl has)


Claire at 6 months:

~21 lbs. solid is right.  YIKES!!
~2 bottom teeth erupted
~eating rice cereal, fruits and veggies
~loves to laugh
~bangs her feet down in her crib
~sitting up all by herself
~managed to be away from me for 3 nights while I was in NYC- thank goodness for bottles and breast pumps (thanks mom)
~sucks on her index finger when she is tired
~her hair sticks straight up like a little boys crew cut
~loves to pull hair- especially dad's
~loves to squish her face in her blanket
~has learned to spit (totally a mess)
~loves bath time and any water

Love you to death my little Claire Bear.

She is adorable! I love that age - cute, smiley, ticklish, reactive and nonmobile.

6 months? It's going so fast. I look at Brinklee and think she's getting closer and closer to that year mark and it makes me want to cry. She is a DOLL! LOVE her skirt
