Random catch up
10 months and Crawling!
Some other ten month updates are:
She has added a few new words to her vocab. She says Mama and Dada correctly. She says hi she has also learned Anna. Whenever my sister Anna walks by Claire will say her name, it's pretty precious.
She is mimicing animal noises.
She is clapping her hands like a maniac! Something she does that melts my heart is in the middle of breast feeding she will just start clapping her hands, like she is saying, "Good job, mama! You rock! Thanks for doing this!" I can't get enough of it!
She is pulling herself up to a standing position and will stand for 5-10 seconds without holding on to anything.
She is walking if she has something to hold on to.
She LOVES it when we play the chase game. She will go into laughing fits because of it.
Something I just LOVE about her is her sense of humor. She will find something funny in just about anything AND she lets you know its funny, too.
There is so much more I could write about her, but I will hold back for right now. I love this little girl. She is just too much sweetnees to handle!

New Years with my BFF!!
I was so blessed this holiday season! I got to see my best friend from high school and her family. They came ALL the way from Georgia! We got to bring in the New Year with them and it was one of the funnest New Years I have had in a LLLOOONNNGG time!
This is Lisa and her sweet baby. Claire and Ethan are only 2 months apart. They are most likely going to get married.

I just love Claire and I love loving on Claire! She is so sweet. She is usually to worried about wha tis going on to give too many loves but when she does I just soak them up!
Oh and of course, when Lisa and I are together we HAVE to make brownie dough and eat it. So we made pizza and brownie dough and it was delicious!
Oh funny story....So we accidentally locked the door. I heard about it thought, 'Oh no big deal, the guys can get it, I'll deal with Claire.' Well, a while later they still hadn't gotten it so I was thinking, 'Really, whats going on?' They I guess did not come from the hood like me and aren't pro at picking locks....Ha, just kidding but I love this picture because the you can see the guys in the background. I pick up serious lock picking technique from living with my brother Nick, who is autistic.
