What an angel!






It is crazy to think that just a few days ago we were picking up our precious little girl from the airport. It all still seems so surreal to me. I wonder if that feeling will every go away?


Claire is doing better than we could have hoped! She is a happy girl giving us lots of smiles and even laughing at us when she thinks we are funny. I love when I carry her over in front of the mirror and she laughs then looks up at me and smiles. She was so entertaining last night as she played on the
floor, looking at Chad and I with her cute smile.

Her brothers love giving her attention. Little Grant is even having fun imitating things that his little sis does. The cutest is when she shakes her arms and tries to clap and he follows.

She is still sleeping great. She goes to bed around 9:30 and sleeps until 7 or later. She usually has a few naps during the day and I have found that she falls to sleep pretty easily in my arms. I can then go lay her crib and she will sleep in there for a while.

She is crawling now too. It is so fun to watch her. She tries to crawl into the kitchen to get me when she hears my voice or sees my face. Once she gets to me, she has a big smile on her face.

Claire also loves when I put her in the carrier. She is immediately content as soon as I put it on wrap it around her. She has already fallen asleep in it many times.


I am so in love with this little girl. It already feels like she has been a part of our family forever. We are enjoying every minute of this gift that God has given us. We are so thankful and blessed!
