Super Star Clara got to borrow cousin Maria's sunglasses while Erin and Chad babysat so we could go out with friends. We came back to find pictures of the two little ones playing in the tub, tackling Chad, and Clara was fast asleep in the crib.
Great Grandma Andrews is sharing her newspaper with Clara on our visit in early October. The first night we were there Clara was screaming when we sat down to eat supper. She wouldn't take a bottle and didn't want to play, she just kept screaming. Finally, great grandma said, "Well she's mad. She wants real food". We got some oatmeal out and fed Clara while we ate and when she was done eating she let out a sigh of relief. The 2nd morning Great Grandma read the paper to Clara. The 2nd afternoon Great Grandma taught Clara how to crawl by putting a plastic bag on the floor. Thank goodness my parents took me to visit someone who knows how to teach a baby to grow up!
Clara loves to take her toys with her wherever she goes.
1st Halloween. Clara was a little ladybug that visited all our neighbors on our street.
Clara's 1st time swimming with Jim and I. She loves the water! I suppose it helps that it is 90 degrees. She is sooo fast that even with us holding her she keeps trying to dunk her head underwater and comes up sputtering and laughing. Then she dunks her head under again.
