This "lil punkin" gown and slippers, "baby's 1st halloween" bib and "my first pumpkin" playset are all gifts from Grammy and Grampy, my parents. We have several Halloween outfits for Clara, so I'm going to put her in something different every day this week. :) I will be emailing the pictures to my mother and to David at work, and I will post some in here as well. Happy Halloween from the cutest girl in orange. :)
I love her scared face, hahaha.

Oh my! Sad face! Sad face! I love when babies make the sad face! (Obviously not because they're upset, it's just so cute.) Nathan can still kind of make this face, but not as well as he used to. Clara is so adorable in all her costumes.

Kari, she is absolutely, positively, adorable!!!! Those pictures are all precious!! :love: :love: :love:

Clara is adorable.:) I love all her holiday gear. I see what you mean
about changing before your eyes. I can see the differences through
the pictures.:)
Awwwwwww.......kisses on that sweet little face from me please.:)
Awww, I love all of Clara's Halloween looks, especially the deer. Too cute!! And you're right, she does get cuter all the time. :)
Clara's adorable and looks so cute in her costumes!:)
Here's a couple photos from this weekend. My mother flew in for a couple days, it was magical having her here. :) Clara's just over 11 weeks now!

And, look at my girl! She's able to sit up in her Bumbo chair!

And, this cracks me up!

She just gets cuter by the minute!
So cute! I especially like the third picture. :)
OMG! I really need to come back and look at this thread more often. Being overseas right now is no excuse to miss out on this kind of cuteness!!!Quote:

Thanks, guys! :) We think Clara's adorable! She's way cuter than we ever were! ;)
She's got a little cold right now. :( Kinda snotty, coughing a little, sneezing a little, leaky eyes. She's got a doctor's appointment today at 1, though, so hopefully we don't find out that it's something worse. I'll update after we get her back home.
Well, we took Clara to the doctor. She doesn't have the flu, thank goodness, but she does have a bit of a virus. Her eardrums looked good, didn't have any weird chest sounds, but she does have a little bit of a red throat, some coughing and sneezing, some congestion and runny eyes (just the consistency of tears, though, nothing thick). Not the best case scenario, but not the worst, either.
She did really well at the visit, too. David was giving her a bottle when the nurse took her temperature, and all she did was sort of make a grunt sound. ;) The only time she cried was when the doctor swabbed her sinuses to test for the flu. I would have yelled, too!
I am proud of my little girl, who has been napping for the last couple hours. She's not been resting well the last couple days, so that's a big deal!
Sorry to hear that Clara isn't feeling well. I hope she feels better soon!
Clara's feeling better! Still congested some mornings, but nothing a little saline solution and a nasal aspirator don't fix. ;)
To celebrate three months (tomorrow is actually the three month mark), here are some photos from yesterday.
This is the dress, bonnet, booties and blanket my aunt made for Clara. She's a wonderful crafter, and this outfit is incredible.

What a beautiful outfit, you can tell it was made with a lot of love!
awwww, beautiful outfit and beautiful Clara!
Beautiful, beautiful outfit for a beautiful little girl.
I hope you put this away for her.........that outfit is truly a keepsake and obviously Clara is well loved by her aunt.
Thank you! And, yes, I plan to do something special with the outfit. I'm thinking it might look really pretty framed, perhaps a shadow box? Something like that. :) Aunt Ronnie is such a talented lady, the dress is amazing. And, the blanket is wonderful, it's my favorite!Quote:

I'm glad that Clara is feeling better!
Her outfit and blanket is such a special gift, and it's beautifully made! I love the colors. And Clara is more lovely every time I see her. Beautiful pictures.
Thank you guys for checking out Clara in her pretty dress! Yesterday, she looked super cute in a pair of denim overalls! :) David picked them out when we were at the store, but they didn't fit her a couple weeks ago. Now, they do!
I love this carrier so so so much! We tried out two different positions today, and this is the "explorer." :) I have bronchitis/upper respiratory junk going on, and so I've been wearing this mask to protect Clara as much as I can. I don't feel badly, just tire more easily than usual. I nearly lost my voice, but I think that's passed, now!
I just think Clara looks super cute in this video, so I wanted to share it! I love how her fists are clinched, she does that now and it's so cute. :)

Aww, she's adorable - but you knew that! She doesn't try to grab your mask?

Kari, she is just adorable. I was thinking that the dress your aunt made would be a beautiful baptism gown. It is stunning!
I thought so, too! I don't know that we're getting her baptised, but if we do, that's what she'll wear!Quote:

I'm looking forward to Christmas with him and Clara, though. Can't believe it's right around the corner! EEK.
Night, all!
Great photos :D I missed when she was sick but I'm so glad she's better :)
this christmas will be a very special one :)
Clara did really well at her appointment today! She is 13.5 pounds and 26 inches long (she's taller than 95% of other girls her age, crazy!). She's healthy, but her knee has popped since birth, and this was the first checkup where the doctor didn't see any improvement. So, we made an appointment for tomorrow at a Pediatric Sports and Spine Associates to have it checked out. I'm sure it's fine, but it'll be nice to have it looked at!
Here's a Christmas photo for you...the dress if from her Grammy. :)

This one is getting framed. A new friendship is being forged. :)
