Claire hanging out with Peter Rabbit and Mr. Rattles.  Peter Rabbit has a Frosty the Snowman voice while Mr. Rattles sounds like Pee-Wee Herman.


Violet is by far Claire's best friend at the moment followed by Peter Rabbit.  Mr. Rattles is a distant 3rd place because he tickles her nose with his hair.


Claire rubs her eyes every morning after waking up.  I caught her in action here.


Claire's crib is not only a place of sleeping but it is also a place for learning.  She likes the different colors and shapes of the letters and numbers.  At least that's what she told me.  She still likes being swaddled (or maybe dislikes not being swaddled) but we're going to need to change that soon because she's starting to bust it loose by the morning.  We'll also remove the bumpers when we remove the swaddle since she'll be able to move her way over to the corners.


Julianna (Claire's babysitter) giving her a feed in her ducky outfit.  Julianna is from Columbia and is trying to learn english while we are trying to learn spanish.  Notice that Claire is trying to hold onto the bottle!  She's starting to grab things.

RECAP:
Jen and I signed up for Groupon.com and used one of our "groupons" at La Paz on Saturday night.  Julianna kept an eye on Claire while we were out to dinner.  We also put together Claire's exersaucer but she can't quite touch the floor or hold her head properly so we may need to postpone her use of it.
