Storm Watch...and baby watch


This is where a baby sleeps when there are storm warnings in her neighborhood! She didn't mind a bit!

Daycare no no

When you are taking care of a 3 1/2 month old little girl, you cannot put her in her bouncy chair without the buckle for even the minute it takes you to put the cover on her bottle!! She didn't actually get herself out, but she could given enough time!

Claire's new hat


Claire got a new hat today - she looks stunning in it, don't you think? But then, she looks good in everything. Just like her Auntie Bethanie!

Grandpa Jeff and Claire had a very BIG day. Baptism Day, August 1, 2009.
Stylishly avoiding the sun's evil rays!

Grandma can't figure out how to turn this picture.

Update

I can't believe it has taken me so long to blog again. I will try to do better, but Claire keeps me pretty busy during the day. I have been caring for her 3 weeks. We are coming to an understanding about the bottle, she's getting the hang of it. I try to get out of the house with her, but I'm not super confident about that yet. It takes a lot to get her ready to go, and the weather has been so hot. She has been at the farm with me a few times while Auntie H and Uncle Sean were in Minnesota. We take lots of pictures and have lots of play time. She is very fun to rock to sleep and sing to and play patty cake with. I'll post some new pics!
