I am turning 1 in two weeks

Just open your eyes

The other day I decided that I wanted to take pictures of Clara because its been awhile. So I started snappen' the pics. I started to get a little frustrated because I took about five pictures and all of them her eyes were closed. So Clara could since my frustration and she thought it was funny. You will she how much it cracked her up in pictures. It was really funny. And after taking 50 pictures I didn't get one with her eyes opened. What can I do. It turned out to be a fun memory.

Fun pics of Clara

Who's sleeping in my bed?

NOT CLARA!

So, about three weeks ago Clara spent the night in her own crib for the first time. You are probably wondering how she ended up in my bed. Every since Clara was born chris started working graveyard. So it was me by myself in a big bed. So I put her in there and I was sleeping so well. Then I started getting used to her touching me through the whole night and it was conforting knowing she was okay. Fast forward to seven and half months later and Chris is off graveyard and he want his bed back. I can't blame him. The queen size bed wasn't doing in thing for us. So Chris wanted to get a Cal. king so he could sleep better. So I thought it was a good idea to finally get her into her crib. It was pretty easy the first night she didn't have a problem falling asleep. I was the one having a hard time sleeping without anyone touching me. But one night of a good night sleep cured me. The second night was really hard. She cried for a hour and half but she finally fell asleep. After a couple of nights crying her self to sleep she is finally able to fall asleep on her own. I love it. I am like a new women. I really don't regret hafing Clara sleep with me all those months because it was like we bonded but now its time for Chris and I to get our bed back. All I know is life is great especially at night.

Almost 8 months

I have been having so much fun with the camera.

Clara is loving the model life. just kidding. She is actually getting tired of the camera. I guess I will have to find someone else to take pictures of.

Actually no! I will have to force the camera on her.

Laughing Clara

Clara is all full of giggles and laughter. But you can't forget the crying moments which have become less and less, thank goodness!
