Happy Baby!

Claire loves Cups!
Mommy, Daddy, and Claire at Rachel's Wedding
Claire's dress was too cute!


Auntie Rachel got married today, it was a beautiful wedding and she looked gorgeous as always! Claire was in attendance, and mommy was a bridesmaid, so Daddy, Grandma Crystal, Fredpa, and Uncle Billy got to spend a lot of time with Claire. Claire enjoyed her day, she danced, and talked to all kinds of new friends! I can't wait until she can dance on her own. We are very excited about next weekend for Jamie's Wedding! Hopefully Claire will have just as good as she did today! This weekend was the Lexington Blueberry Festival we didn't make it to the actual event but we did watch the fireworks and Claire LOVED them. Although she did fall asleep for the finale and she was out, didn't even flinch! We had a very exciting weekend, Sunday was Grandpa Jay's birthday! We went over to Ashland to spend some time with family and celebrate! We got to spend some time with cousin Brayden which is always a good time! We also got our approval for her surgery we are just waiting for the doctor to call me back and schedule!!! Hopefully by the end of the week we will know our day! And we are wondering when these TEETH will finally make their debut, she has really been fussy, Auntie Dani bets that it will be this weekend at the wedding! I guess we will find out...I can't believe she is almost 6 months old! It is wild, before we know it she will be a year old! Heartbreaking but exciting at the same time! She is still TALKING haha, the girl loves to talk Mitch and I are really in for it. I will post again once we have all the information for surgery.

the park!





Claire got to visit one of the parks by our house today. Daddy, Mommy, and Claire walked to the park and Claire got to swing, and go down the slide with daddy. She had a really good time, it was a little on the hot side but she was happy. Our little girl is on the move! She is pretty much crawling, her version that is, she's got the arms and one leg going and drags one leg too. She is sitting up for long periods of time 20 minutes or more. It is so cute she will sit and play with her toys, such a big girl! She's doing really good eating, she LOVES sweet potatoes! She is talking up a storm!!! We don't know what exactly she is saying but that's ok! She is still saying dada and throwing some more in there nanana and ingainga. Of course mama hasn't been one of them. No teeth yet!! We are anxiously waiting their arrival. She is still sleeping pretty good through out the night, some days better than others. And she laughs ALL the time!! and loves to scream! We are really enjoying being parents. We got some news on surgery, we were diagnostically approved for BCMH and for treatment(surgery). We should be receiving our information in the mail by Saturday, so hopefully we will have a date by next week! Dr. Seitz was hoping she wouldn't be moving but unfortunately we didn't have any control of that, and she is not stopping now. We started massage therapy to help with her neck and that is going well. We have a busy next two weeks, one of my best friends Rachel, is getting married and I am in the wedding! and the next weekend my cousin Jamie is also getting married in PA. So we will be doing some traveling for that one.We are excited to see family and friends and show off Claire!!!

5 months!


Our sweet baby girl is 5 months old! where has the time gone??? She is so much fun right now she is sitting, talking, and eating! She loves her baby food, she hasn't found something she doesn't like yet! She LOVES to talk......A LOT! She loves saying Dadadada of course and we swear she says "i love dada". She is trying to crawl and is pretty close, they said at Physical Therapy her neck was delaying that a bit. We are still working on her torticollis doing stretches and everything we can to help her. But it is still there, I will be having a PT coming to the house hopefully soon to help too. We are still waiting on BCMH to process her paper work so we can schedule her surgery. We have some more funny videos of the girl. This video is of her and Ralph (Grammie's dog) he had a toy she played with the day before and she was mad he had it.We went to her Godmother's house this week and she has a little kitten and she loved him! I am guessing Claire will like animals! She is on the move and hopefully Daddy and I can handle it! We are thinking the teeth are going to be making their debut here pretty soon. She has been a little bit crabby and not sleeping the best, which makes us suspect it will be soon. She had her first boo-boo this week, she rolled off Mommy and Daddy's bed. Which luckily is low to the ground, we no longer can leave her alone on the bed. She had a pretty good bump only cried for a minute or two and was off again trying to crawl. She's tough!! She is amazing and we can't wait for tomorrow may bring!!
