Claire is eating and growing and eating and belly-crawling. The other night she ate an entire can of pear slices. Not a babyfood jar... and 15 oz can. there were about 6 little pieces in her highchair, but other than that she ate every single piece. She's probably going to surpass her sister--and maybe her brother--in height before she stops growing. I would like to wean her from nursing to a bottle of formula, but she really likes to nurse. She'll usually take a bottle, but sometimes she chooses to be picky and won't take it. And part of me thinks it is silly to switch her to formula when I'm just going to switch her to milk in 3 months, but I'm ready to be done nursing. She has started pulling herself to her knees and sometimes to standing. She is pretty unsteady on her legs still, but I got a Johnny Jump-Up today that I'm going to try out. We'll see how she does.
Claire-bear loves to giggle and play. She still doesn't like to be left with anyone else besides her mom, but is getting to where she'll let dad or grandma or grandpa hold her. But she's very choosy. She also gets frustrated easily, like Caleb did at this age.
Claire is sick today... she had a runny nose last week, but it went away for a few days, and now its back, only this time its worse. Now she also has a cough. She didn't sleep very well last night, so hopefully she'll take a couple good naps today and sleep a little better tonite. I'll probably give her a couple doses of Motrin or Tylenol throughout the day. Aahh... better living thru chemistry. So thats whats up with her.

fun to hear about all the kids. A couple other series Caleb may like--The Littles, Puppy Place, Flat Stanley. Junie B. Jones is kind of girly, but he may find it amusing.
My vote is for weaning to a bottle. If you are ready, then just do it. Maybe it will help her be a little less picky about who is holding her if that person is offering a form of sustenence.(sp?)
Anywho. That's my 2 cents.
