Claire's new favorite thing

Claire's new favorite thing to do is to get into the pantry. She gets all the cans out and tries to stack them. Then she gets any boxes of food and puts it on top of Kali's bowl. She will do this forever! These days I just let her do it. She is getting better at helping me put it all back in the pantry, but some days there is food everywhere. I caught her in action yesterday, so I snapped some pictures.

Claire's new interests

It's funny how Claire picks up on so many things that I do. She watches me get ready in the morning and has found an interest in these. She loves to brush her teeth. She now has 2 toothbrushes that she uses and tries to brush the few teeth she has. She puts the toothbrush under the water and then starts brushing. She also loves to brush her hair. She gets my brush and puts it up to her head and tries brushing her hair. Sometimes she does a really good job and other times she has the brush turned the wrong way. What's so funny is that she'll stand in front of the mirror and while she's brushing her hair. Her new favorite thing is to get into my makeup...only a little girl! She sits with me while I put my makeup on and watches me. Now she can get the brushes and blush or eyeshadow and will try and put it on her face. It's usually all over, but it's so cute when she does it. Needless to say, it takes me a little longer to get ready in the morning now!

I sat her on the vanity the other night and let her brush her teeth and hair and then handed her some makeup brushes. She's got it down pat!

Girls Night Out

Last Friday night was Girls Night Out. We went to eat dinner at Ruben's, a Mexican restaurant, and then we went to the Carrie Underwood concert. The concert was so much fun. She put on a really great concert. It was a fun night out with just the girls.

Day at the Park

Yesterday Josh had the day off so we had a family day. We went to eat lunch at Rosemary's Creamery and then we went to the park. Claire loves the park, especially the swings. She would swing all day if we let her. She also loved playing in all the leaves that had fallen on the ground. (too bad the wind was blowing her hair in her face, but the pics are still cute.) When it was time to leave, she kept running back towards the swings. She did not want to go. At least we know she loves the outdoors.
I had a doctors appointment today. Everything is looking good. I'm measuring 37 weeks and his head is down. Now it's time to just wait....patiently! I do have my bag packed, his clothes are washed and we finally got his side of the room ready. Now all we need is Carson!

Learning to catch a ball!

Claire loves her pink and white basketball and nerf ball. She can throw it pretty well, but she has now learned to catch it. She puts her hands out in front and waits for you to throw it to her. She gets really excited when she catches it!
