On Saturday Claire said "I potty" and I said "ok!" We went to her bathroom and she opened the lid to her potty and said "diaper off" which was weird because so far she has not wanted to sit on it without a diaper. She then said "clothes off" so I knew this was a different situation. She sat on the potty for a few minutes playing with TP and then she starting to pee!! The sound of the pee hitting the plastic scared her and she jumped up but once I sat her back down she was fine. She did play in the pee causing a bit of a mess, but this was progress. Today she wanted to "potty" again. She wanted her clothes and diaper off and then she peed a little. I am so proud of her!! She is such a precious little angel!
Tara, Matt, Taylor and Andrew came in this week, Tuesday night. Tara and Matt were going to the Dove Awards. Sam and I got to keep Taylor and Andrew Wednesday night while they went to the awards. We had a great time playing! Claire thought she had won the lottery with all the attention she was getting from Taylor. Andrew is a bit put off by Claire. He does not want to hug her or kiss her, which are two of Claire's favorite things to do. Taylor likes to hug and kiss her!
I had to go to the Planning Commission meeting Thursday night so I met the Lynch's at Jason's Deli for lunch on Thursday and Sam and I met the Lynch's at Mellow Mushroom for dinner Thursday night so I could spend time with them. Friday Sam and I took the day off and we went with the Lynch's to the Zoo. We had a great time looking at all the animals and playing in the playground! We also at in the kitchen at Buca Di Bepo's, which was fun!
Saturday we got rain...lots of rain...and a tornado watch. We stayed in during tha morning, the boys played Wii and Sam made a great Mexican meal for lunch. Then we went to OpryMills, Target and Zaxby's.
Overall, we had a great time.

She's Somethin' Else
Claire has grown up so much over the past few months. She is talking up a storm and is saying several word sentences. She likes to say "Me do it!" A lot. Even though she has not seen Andrew in a few days she still says "Andrew (Nanu) push me."
Claire loves her Mamaw and Papaw. She asks for them often. She also loves Matt ans asks if he is "home." She plays hard with Andrew and Taylor! She tries to keep up with them and for the most part she does a pretty good job!
Claire is so independent. She does not want anyone to do things for her. When she starts to count (she can count to 10 in English and in Spanish) and when I start to help her she gets mad and says "me do it." She loves to slide down slides but now she does not want help up or for me to stand at the bottom of the slide to catch her.
We got a note home from school today that said Sanjay, a boy in Claire's class, was sitting by himself watching the other kids. Claire went up to him, grabbed his hand, walked him to the other kids and then hugged him. How sweet is that!!! Claire had an art show a few weeks ago at her school. We were told that she, along with Owen, are the brightest in her class. So proud!! Her best friend at school is Carlie. She has a little "song" she sings with Carlie's name and it goes "Carlie, Carlie, Carlie." After school she loves to have her "nack" and her "gung gung" because she is hungry and thirsty from playing so hard!
Claire likes to play with her "real" doll and likes to carry "purses" which are anything with handles. She loves bubbles and for easter Matt and Tara got her a bubble basket and she adores it. She also likes to play doctor and check ears for temp. It is so cute. She loves to read books. She has a few favorites (Lullaby Little One, I Love You Through and Through, Panda Bear Panda Bear, What do you See?, etc) that she likes to have read to her and now she has them memorized and can say them along with me. She does the same thing for songs. She loves to sing along with songs!
Claire's hair has gotten so long and curly. It is beautiful. She is still wearing 18 month clothes, but we have been getting her 24 month now and they are just a little big. She brushes her teeth pretty well. She loves to eat meat. Chicken, ham, turkey; its all game (no pun intended). She also loves chocolate.
Last weekend she was diagnosed with strep throat for the first time. Yes, Easter Eve! She missed the egg hunt but still got to play with her cousins!
I love her, I love her!!!
