Claire E: For the Record

Just a quickie post to remember a few things:

1. Claire is crawling now.  She is pretty proud of herself.  I now spend 95% of my day picking up miniscule woochips, game pieces, Legoes, wrappers and Dora shoes off of the floor.  She chokes all the time, and I have to jam my finger into her mouth to sweep out whatever little item she has managed to find.  It scares me!!  I'm a vacuuming mad-woman!!

2. Tooth #2 poked through, on the bottom.  She likes to bite our fingers...luckily that's all she bites of me...SO FAR!

3. Speaking of that...I can't believe I only have a few more weeks of nursing her.  I'm hoping that weaning goes smoothly (aka NO more mastitis!)  There are obvious aspects of nursing that I will be ready to be DONE with (still leaking through my shirts like a faucet).  But I just love nursing my babies, and I'm always really sad to say goodbye to that relationship with each of them.

4. She LOVES this Dora Candyland.  She'll sit for a good half an hour just transferring the pile of cards from one side of her to the other.  I love this age...when all they need is a box or basket to empty and re-fill.  Hours of fun!!

My June is the same way, and at 14 months I'm still fishing things out of her mouth. It's scary for sure and I wish she would outgrow it
