10 MONTHS!

Claire finally has 2 teeth and while I was playing with her this morning, I noticed her top 2 have cut. She is SO opposite from her brother's teething pattern. He cut one tooth at a time and was MISERABLE while he cut each one. Sweetie pie just wakes up cheerful as can be while she cuts them through the night. She is a tough little cookie! Although she had a rough month with getting tubes in her ears and this virus she just got over shes growing like a weed and happy as can be!

This pic sums up our past week :(

Poor baby girl had a 102 fever that would not break for 4 days!

She's finally feeling much better

We tried on new clothes to make sure they would fit and .....

it turned into a runaway photo shoot

Her 2 favorite things to do at 10 mo. old are ....

empty all the toys from the baskets and ....

READ! (especially with her big brother)

asleep during dinner :(

HAPPY ST PATRICKS DAY!

Only Claire can fall asleep in the middle of a parade ....

Unwrapping is candy

Busted doing his candy "jig"

Looking for more candy throwers

Today we went to the Plainfield St Patricks Day Parade! We had so much fun! Unfortunately we never made it to the South Side Irish Parade all those years before they shut it down so I have no comparison. This was just perfect for Andrew to keep his attention! He would get a piece of candy then turn around, unwrap it, pop it in his mouth, and end with a little jig. So cute!

I'm not a huge parade fan, but I have to admit it's a lot of fun with kids.

Hope everyone enjoys their St. Patrick's day!

GO CATS!!!!

Kentucky won the SEC Championship! We've been watching basketball all weekend :)

We're looking forward to another big game next week!

Aarons attempt at a group shot with all of us sporting UK stuff!

Poor Claire got cut off, but Andrew is so happy squeezed in between us.

Little Better

Andrew and I went shopping alone yesterday and he picked

out this bear for his "Claire Bear's" birthday.

Needless to say it didnt make it to her birthday.

And a quick cuddle with Momma,

wish you could actually see the UK logo on her tshirt :(

Just For Fun!
