Another blessed week with Claire in our lives has brought much good. Most importantly, our little booger has finally reached her birth weight! She went to the pediatrician’s office twice this past week and on Thursday she weighed right back at 7 lbs, 8 oz. Mommy and Daddy were very excited and happy to continue fattening her up! Lord willing, she won’t be back to the doctor’s office until her one month check-up (which is closely approaching!)
An important milestone was reached this past week - Claire made the transition from the bassinet in our room to the crib in her nursery. Thanks to Pat for the extra bit of encouragement to move her sooner than later! Claire sleeps well in her crib and the move was much harder on her parents than it was on her. Of course, she’s not without watchful eyes. We have the video monitor hooked up to the television in our room and have spent the past few nights watching “Claire TV” before falling asleep. I must say - it’s actually quite entertaining. Watching your daughter work her way out of a tight swaddle just makes you proud…
In non-Claire, not-so-happy news - our Escape fell victim to one of four vehicle vandalisms in our apartment complex on Wednesday . Our GPS was stolen and the driver’s window was shattered. About 7 hours and $215 later the window was fixed. We’re still holding onto hopes that the GPS will be recovered and returned to us…fat chance, right? However, there was a bright spot in the day - Karen stopped by for a visit and brought lunch. Thanks, Karen!
Can’t end a post on a negative note, so I leave with a photo of my beautiful daughter, snoozing away peacefully. Happy 3 week birthday, Claire Baby!
