Claire's favorite toy and word to say - BALL, BALL, BALL!Our poor little blog has been put on the backburner lately. As usual, things have been pretty busy and with our terrible internet connection at home, i'm seldom on-line to update the blog. Hopefully, i'll be able to post some new pictures soon. We are very excited to be moving closer to Birmingham within the next few weeks. We found a house we liked in Vestavia and closed on it right before the holidays.....as soon as we're finished with some cosmetic changes, we'll be ready to move. We'll be closer to things we need and should have more time at home........since right now we all have a 45 minute commute to and from work! So....since we won't be in the country anymore, I will hopefully have better internet connection and will be able to update Claire's blog more often.
Claire has been doing very well lately...she just recently turned 16 months old and we have a little toddler on our hands. She still has her occasional sniffles here, and stomach bugs there, but nothing major (and hopefully no ear infections for a while). If she has another ear infection before mid to end February she may have to get tubes put in her ears! :-( But.......so far, so good!! We are definitely ready for spring and to be rid of this cold weather. Some other big news for Claire is that she is WALKING!! She could completely do it all the time if she wanted to, but right now she just walks back and forth from Mommy to Daddy or over to her ball, etc......she won't go from room to room unless you're right behind her and cheering her on....but I would think in a couple more weeks, she'll be running all over the place. The way she remembers things now is just amazing too.....you can just look at her concentrate on something and see her taking it all in...our fun thing to do now is to ask her to make animal noises...she can moo like a cow, cluck like a chicken (her favorite), naaaah like a horse and roar like a tiger....it's so cute! We're still working on the sheep and pig. Claire got barn yard animals to play with in the bathtub for Christmas, and that's how it all got started....I just added the roaring tiger for a little Auburn cheering. I will work on posting some pictures soon from the past month, and promise after we move to do better with blogging.
