Clare Is ONE!!!!!!

I can't believe my baby is 1 (almost to the minute as I type this.)

Clare is such a joy for us and we are lucky to have her!!

I am still her favorite person, but Daddy is closing in on me very fast.

As soon as she hears the door or knows he is in the house/room,

all you hear is Papa, Papa, Papa!

So sweet!

The only other thing she says is Chasey, the cat.

No joke.

She actually said that before Papa and it hasn't changed once in

the way it comes out of her mouth.

Smart girl.

Clare has taken a few steps and just last night she started

standing on her own.

It's so cute to watch her let go and get her balance.

She is very proud of herself!

Clare has 8 teeth and hasn't had baby food in months.

She is on her last 1/3 of the container of formula and then

its straight milk for her!

We can't wait to celebrate her

birthday next weekend

with a small party!!

We love you Sweet Baby Clare.

Happy Birthday!!

Her present that she got

yesterday for her birthday before

Greg had to head back up to Phoenix.

We got donuts for breakfast and

I lit a candle for Maddy to blow out for her...

Clare got to it first with her little hand.

Ouch!

Sister love.

Mad helping Clare stand.

She loves cats!

Standing on her own

and sooo proud!!

We love you baby girl.
