First Trip to Pennsylvania!

Claire made her first big road trip to Pittsburgh this past week. She did so good in the car. We only had to stop once on the way up and twice on the way home. She got to meet all her relatives in Latrobe and got to see her Pittsburgh family again and meet Uncle Jeff. She also went swimming for the first time, it took a couple minutes for her to get used to it but then she seemed to like it (at least she fell asleep, so how bad could it have been??).

Just to make you smile :)

We are leaving for PA today to visit with Tony's family. Of course we (Tony) are running late & I'm bored so I thought I would add some pictures to hopefully brighten your day.

First Beach Trip

Claire made her beach debut this week. She seemed to really like it. It is extremely hot (100's) so we didn't take her to the beach until late but it was a good start.

It's Our Anniversary!

Hard to imagine that it was only 1 year ago that Tony & I got married. What a busy year!

Family Visit

Last week we had a house full. Claire finally got to meet her Aunt Linny plus her great-grandma and my cousin Kim and her 2 kids Anika & Avi. Plus of course Grammy was back too. We had tons of fun until Tony came home from work one day with what we thought was the flu. A couple days later he started getting a weird rash on his hands and ulcers in his mouth. We found out that he had the hand, foot, mouth virus. It is HIGHLY contagious in kids so we had to be very careful with Claire. I can't even imagine how miserable she would have been. Knock on wood, one week later and we are all still healthy.

Great Grandma Mimi

I think Claire needs a cousin :)

I did feed them!!!

Happy Baby!

Maybe it is just gas, but I'm starting to think that we are seeing some "real" smiles and attempts at giggles.

Such a morning person!

No matter what time she eats during the night when 7am rolls around Claire is wide awake and ready to play. I really need to start going to sleep earlier! Tony's college friends sent us these stickers, I think they are such a good idea.

Loving my swing!!!
