May and June 2012

Whoa!! What is going on? Why is time flying by so quickly?!?

May and June have passed us by and I am barely updating Claire's blog!

You would think that since I am on summer break I would be on top of it but that hasn't quit worked out yet.

Well....better late than never! :)

Claire turned 10 months old!!

She loves going to the park! The swings are still her favorite!

 

She enjoyed her first time in the pool!

She is still cruising around with her toys and walking along the sofa. She has stood by herself for a few seconds but has not taken any steps by herself yet.

I love her silly faces!

Claire turned 11 months old!!

OMG!!! Do you know what that means?!?

Next month will be her first birthday!!!

I can't believe how fast time has flown!

 

She continues to brighten my days!

She has an infectious smile and gives the best kisses!!

I love hearing her say "Mama"!

Within the last two weeks she has started talking up a storm!!

We still don't have a clue what she is saying but she seems very excited and animated when she is sharing her stories with us.

She loves to skype and talk on the phone with whoever will chat with us. Usually Tia Laura!

No new teeth, she is still eating everything! She loves green beans.

Poor baby did experience her first illness.

She got Roseola (a virus infection commonly known as Sixth Disease).

She had some really high fevers, some vomiting, not feeling herself and then the rosy rash that is the tell-tale sign of Roseola. 

It lasted about a week and it was the longest week of my life!!

We survived but I'm not looking forward to her getting sick like that again.

Other than that, life has been good.

She is spending the summer with her big sisters Kiana (16) and Sisily (12).

She gets a kick out of them and loves them to pieces!

We've gone to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, spent some time at Sly Park, swimming, the gym (daycare at the gym for Claire) and have a few more adventures planned for our summer.

Next month is the big one!!

Her 1 year post!!

See you then!!
