Claire Bear is 16 months old!

Wow! It's been a busy new school year for me! I have not done a good job of keeping up with Claire's monthly blog posts and a few interested readers have reminded me to get on the ball. So...I have finally carved out some time to work on her blog.

Lots to update you all on!

New things about Claire:

She can walk!! Yup, our Claire Bear started walking in late July. She is pretty fast now. Recently she has discovered she can walk backwards! She thinks she's pretty cool.

She has her first molar and is currently working on several more.

She says a few words: mama, papa, peek-a-boo, cheese, more, ta-tu (thank you), woof and meow. She talks about as much as her momma but we don't quite understand the rest of what she is saying :)
