2 months




Claire at 2 months:
-Between weeks 6 & 7 she grew right before our eyes. Onesies that fit her the previous week were suddenly too small. Next doctor's appointment is Monday and we will find out her new weight, but based on our scale we think she weighs about 12 pounds.
-Neck control continues to improve and she no longer falls asleep during tummy time.
-Wearing Size 1 diapers.
-After the 10:30pm feeding she sleeps until 4:30-5:30am (once even 6:00am!) letting mom and dad get some much needed sleep.
-Nap time is much improved and she is less fussy going down for a daytime nap.
-Continues to coo and give us more smiles.
-Still loving the swing and now stroller rides.
-Having your hair brushed is your new favorite activity.

Spring is in the air

Now that the weather is starting to warm up we can take Claire for walks in the stroller. On Saturday we walked around campus and enjoyed the fresh air while Claire dozed off.



On Sunday Nana and Papa came for a visit. We went to breakfast, Claire took a nice morning nap, and then out for another stroller ride with Nana and Papa.

Rochester Part #3

To cap off our weekend we went to the mall and I got to use Claire's stroller for the first time. Strollers are awesome shopping accessories. They have cup holders and a bin to hold your purse and shopping bags. I may bringing it along for shopping trips even when Claire grows out of it.


Hey dad, look who knows how to use a charge card.....

Rochester Part #2

On Saturday we had another busy day. Grandma Linda and I took Claire to Kohl's and then had lunch at Moe's. Seven weeks old and Claire is already an excellent shopper. That night we went to Uncle Dan and Aunt Jean's house for dinner.

Rochester Part #1

We had a wonderful weekend in Rochester, lots of visitors, I don't think Claire was set down once during our trip. Sadly, we are leaving for home today. A few pictures from our weekend, I will post more when we get home.

Grandma Linda and Claire:

On Friday we took Claire to meet her great-grandparents; we had a really nice visit. In true Claire fashion she had projectile spit-up all down dad, within the first three minutes. Always making a grand entrance, thankfully she just missed getting Papa Frank.
