Clara's walking has come quite a ways in the past week. She has shifted to walking only when encouraged to all the time, even when it is quite apparent that crawling would be more convenient (like through a play tunnel). It is so fun to see her toddle around the house, usually carrying one of her favorite toys which include Little People, her purse, a bath fish or her most favorite of recent - a spoon. Scout gets into her drawer and gets our a big plastic measuring spoon! She likes sharing "bites" with Mom & Dad!This past week, our little Scout enjoyed several fun outings with friends. Being able to walk makes all the difference at some of the kid play areas! Above Clara has latched right onto a checkbook and cash register at Pottery Barn Kids. We went here on an outing with Logan and Hayden Fisher, her special buddies, and of course Christy a very special buddy of Mom's. Such a fun day!
Hayden has such a great mechanical mind and loves building things. He got to go to the Lego store and pick out his own pieces from the bulk Legos - too cool!
Logan is just so sweet here pushing the doll buggy. He and Hayden took turns pushing Clara around in her stroller in the mall and are so good to her.
Later in the week, we took a family trip to Toys R' Us/Babies R' Us to look at umbrella strollers. We took Clara over to the toy section and she loved checking out the bikes, and rideable trucks! We are thoroughly enjoying all the fun play time and interest she has in just about EVERYTHING!!

On Friday, we had beautiful weather (funny because it is snowing like crazy at the moment) and our buddy Kate came to visit. We all went on a walk to the park to play. Kate & Clara had on matching pink high tops - pretty awesome!!
Mommy & Scout at the park - She love to swing!!
Clara and Mommy also made a fun shopping trip with Clara's little boyfriend, Davis, and his mom Cindy. We had a fun lunch and went to the Kids Cove at the mall and the kids had a blast climbing on all of the equipment. The kids wore themselves out! It was wonderful!On Saturday, Mommy got her day out with friends why Clara and Daddy stayed home to watch Husky basketball with some friends. It was a nice little get away and fun bonding time for Kev and Scout!
Clara and Mommy have been attending a great playgroup here in our neighborhood since late October. Clara has made some great friends and Mommy really likes the other parents and care-givers. Every Friday we have Spanish songs which has become an absolute favorite of Clara's. She "sings" and keeps rhythm by clapping on her legs and it is just too sweet. The group just updated the website and we are in one of the photos. It's not the best shot of either of us, but still fun to check out:
