Valentine's Day

Blake took Jayce to the Monster Jam

Her favorite monster truck was Monster Mutt

So sweet...(Blake tells me I take too many pictures of people sleeping)

Learning how to sit up

Valentine's steak dinner

Cereal, toes, and Valentine's hairdo

Today is Jayce's Valentine's party at school.

She "let" me do her hair in a heart.

This week Claire started to eat rice cereal.  She loves sitting in her highchair like a big girl.

You can't really tell, but she really likes the cereal.

Big sister is the best helper!

Claire has discovered her feet this last week.

Yummy!  Maybe I should stop painting her nails now...

When she's not sucking on her toes she sucks her thumb.

Claire Bear's stats

This cute little angel had a doctor's appointment today.

She is 4 months now!

She weighs 13 lbs (39th %tile)

She is 24.5" (60th %tile)

Her head is 70th %tile

She is such a good baby. She rarely cries. She is sooo ticklish. She giggles when I lightly tickle her cheeks. Her dad tickles her until she almost barfs. She squeals in delight when she sees her big sister Jayce.

Dinosaur Museum

Lately we have been going to the Thanksgiving Point Dinosaur Museum with the Engmans.  They have a year long family pass, so we get in 1/2 off if we go with them.  Jayce loves it.

There are 13 garden gnomes hidden throughout the museum.   Some of them are painted on the walls and some are little 2" statues.  We had found 12, and finally last week Nicole found the 13th one.  One of the paleontologists heard her screaming "I found it!  I found it!"  He came over and talked to us and told her he is going to move them, so now we have to go and find the statue ones all over again.

Close-up of the last one. 

I found this little guy all by myself!  I was pretty proud.  He was on the tallest dinosaur's hip.  This picture makes it look easy, but it wasn't!
