Joe, Karli & Claire: November 2010

It has been so long since I have posted so be prepared for picture overload! Claire has gotten so big and she is so much fun! She is now six months old! I can't believe it has been six months since this beautiful little girl came into our lives! At her six month check up, she weighed 16 lbs 2 oz, 26.25 in long. She is very tall for her age, but skinny for her height. If you've seen her thighs, you wouldn't believe that she is skinny, but the doctor even said that she is skinny. She is sitting up on her own. She'll sit forever, she has such a strong core. She'll even stand if you hold her hands and I'm just waiting for the day she'll just start running. She does a funny little crawl where she uses her head on the ground to push her body where she wants it to go, but she gets to where she needs to. She is a chatterbox (just like her mama!). Claire loves food. Her favorites are pears, bananas, apples, sweet potatoes, squash, oatmeal, peas, strawberry yogurt. Her dislikes are the baby meats. Let's be honest, they look nasty, they smell nasty. How can we even make her eat them! Her face is so funny when she eats. She is starting to have so much personality. Claire still wants to be held all the time. It makes it quite hard in the mornings when Joe is already at work and I'm getting ready for work. Claire comes with me to work every day which is such a blessing. I'm so glad I get to spend all day every day with her. I put her in the snugli and away we go. She will be a professional trophy builder by the time she's 1! Luckily, I have lots of family there to help me with her. She even gets to a ride in the snugli by her aunt Jenna sometimes. Anyway... Bring on the pics!
