Solids!

Clarissa had her first solids today - if you can call them that! The cereal was so watered down with formula that it couldn't really be classified as a solid. She still doesn't quite have the hang of it, but she's getting there!

Sitting in her bumbo seat waiting for the first spoonful.
It gets a little messy!!We'll just keep trying - hopefully she'll get it soon!

4 months

Today Clarissa is 4 months old. She went to the Dr for her 4 month check up. She was 13 lbs, 23 3/4 inches. Both 50%. A perfectly average baby! A perfectly serious baby! This is her today after we got back from the Dr's. On March 14, Claire went to her first birthday party. It was for her cousin Ava. She turned 4. I can't believe she's already 4!! She was having so much fun playing dress up before the cake that her hair got a little messy. Sammy is Claire's other cousin that is on the left in this picture.
This is the outfit Claire wore to the party. It even had little boots! It's from Vallie, her great cousin! Hehehe! The boots didn't fit very well with her baby cankles, but she was still cute in them!
And poor girl, I even had to take a picture of her butt, because the design on the tights was so cute! You can see the boots a little better too.
At Clarissa's baptism, Ava gave her one of her Odies (what Ava used to call all of her dolls) as a present. We kept it at our house until Ava's birthday. Her is Claire and Odie in her swing.

Jumparoo!

We finally put together Clarissa's Jumparoo. She's holding up her head really well, so we thought it was time. The only problem is that she's still not tall enough, even at the lowest setting. We had to use a Dictionary and a Bible to make it tall enough!
You can see she seems to like it!

But after too much play time - it's time to rest. My friend Heidi made her the shirt - No sugar added, 100% me! And I love the leggings that I got at Target for $.50. Can't beat that!

Clarissa's 3 Month Pictures

I went to get Clarissa's 3 month pictures done on Saturday, February 27. It went pretty well. She only had one melt down. I got them done at Clix in Maple Grove.
