{Claire Lately...}

These past several weeks Claire's 1st birthday seems to be inching closer and closer and before our eyes our sweet baby is becoming a beautiful, intelligent, amazing little girl! She is so independent, yet such a cuddle bug. She is a pure delight and we are beaming with pride to be the parents of such a precious, incredible little darling!

Here's a little look at what Claire's been up to lately...

{Baby Girl's 8 month birthday and she got to taste her first Pinkberry!}

 {Trying to conquer the straw so she can start enjoying smoothies with mommy}

{Loving the outdoors and discovering new things}

{Hmm, plotting her escape?}

{Mommy's favorite kitchen helper}

{Will crawl for coffee!}

{Our little genius learning to use the spoon}

{Claire's 1st State Fair (outside the womb)}

{Our proud little crawler, making her way around the house like a champ (and giggling the whole time)!}

{Chomping away at corn on the cob}

She is definitely growing up too fast, but we're enjoying each precious moment with our little girl!

Sweet Girl, we love you to the moon & back (a million times over)!
