March Update

It’s certainly been a while since our last update. Clara had a wonderful Valentine’s Day and just got through celebrating Easter with the family.

Clara handled the Easter bunny pretty well, but did not like it when he picked up her Elmo. She had a great time with her cousins, Aubin and Ava, on an Easter Egg Hunt, and later took a long nap from all the fun!

Clara in March 2008Have you ever seen the Volvo commercial where the dad is picking his daughter up from school and she’s rambling on about her day, and never stops talking? Well that’s what Clara seems like she’s going to be like. It’s amazing how fast these kids pick up these words and start talking. Clara has had added about 10 new words in the past couple of weeks bringing her vocabulary to around 30, and can say part of the alphabet (A-F anyway). Her funniest word is Vodka and she knows just where it is in the house. *Note to self: lock that up before she reaches her teen years.

Clara is still eating like a horse, and it’s not unusual for her to have 3 eggs, a pancake, and a piece of bacon for breakfast. The last few Saturdays, she’s been able to go to McDonald’s with her “Grandy” and has just had a blast.

Clara is still very tall, and was in the 90th percentile for height at her 15 month check up but only running 50th percentile for weight.

Clara has made a friend, Julien, through her Kindermusik class and they play at the park every Wednesday after class. As always, you can see all our pictures in the Photo Galleries.

In the coming weeks, I’ll be adding a recipe section (yum!) to the website and the ability to sign up to receive an email when the site is updated.

Y’all have a great spring!
