Another week older...

... yet another week of amazing changes. At sixteen weeks old, Clara is quite the little person. She enjoys standing up, giggling, making lots of talking sounds, playing with her feet and occasionally rolling over. We can't believe how interactive she is!

Clara's preference for Mommy and Daddy are becoming more apparent too. She likes to be silly with Dad and snuggle with Mom.

Mommy couldn't resist the little headband!


After really disliking tummy time, she is getting stronger and more tolerant of it now, even getting a few smiles now and then. Often she rolls from her back to her tummy and then gets ticked when she realizes where all her hard work has landed her... on her tummy. So far, she has only executed the complete role and returned to her back unassisted once, but this preference for being on her back provides her with motivation to keep at it!

Scout is 15 weeks old!!

Posing so pretty for the camera!! She enjoyed playing on the sheep skin that Mommy had when she was a baby.


Fascinated by the television, just like Grandpa Mark!

Rolling over on her own for the first time this week! She rolled from her back to her tummy. It was bittersweet for Kevin, who was in Orlando at the time, but fortunately he got the play by play over the phone.

YEAH!!!

Little Clara is such a happy girl!

She LOVE to suck on her hand, her toys, even her clothes.


She is getting a lot more tolerant of tummy time and is such a ham for the camera too!

She attended Scotty's 30th Birthday Party at his new lake house! Fun, Fun, Fun!!


She really enjoys this play mat we borrowed from cousin Taylor! She now LOVES watching Taylor walk around and play.

~ Clara's Adventurous 13th week ~

Clara had a visit to see Kate and created a great deal of interest from kitties Tanzi (pictured here) and Meeps (who kept her distance).

Clara also had the opportunity to visit Grandma Jan in her classroom.

It seems like she grows a little every day.

She LOVES standing with Daddy...

...and chattering with Mommy.

She also has started sleeping in her own room at night, but still prefers playing in her crib.

Clara and Mommy took a quick trip to Chehalis to visit Grandma & Grandpa and play with cousin Taylor. We had lots of fun outside as a family.

~ Happy Girl ~

Fun in the sun!


Clara also spent some time cuddling with Grandpa Mark.
