I am finally posting some pictures for Mary and her family! Obviously most of our pictures since Claire was born are of her! We are all so in love with her at our house, she is just a doll! Her big sisters are all over her, but very sweet and gentle. They both want kisses all the time! Hallie can feed her a bottle, and burp her- she talks so sweet to her, and loves to calm her down. I have to confess that Peter and I took Hallie and Ella skiing a the day before Claire's blessing, and I forgot our camera. So I missed taking pictures of our 2 big Ski bunnies at the "ski buuny hill"! It was Ella's first time, and she was so cute-clapping her hands AND FEET- the whloe way down the hill! We had a really fun day, and it was so nice to be able to leave Claire with my Mom! She is a really good baby. The next day was Claire's baby blessing. It was such a nice day. Peter did a great job, and it was so nice to have so many people there, and back to our house for a fun afternoon. Hallie keeps asking when Claire's next baby blessing is! They had a great time with so many favorite people here! Later in the week Hallie discovered she liked carrots and white dip! Then ate chicken nuggets ("bicnuggets") she insists is the proper term, and likes them too! This is a breakthrough! And later that night we had another great breakthrough-Ella decided to get on the potty after Hallie, and Potty trained herself!!! Shes had a couple accidents, but she usually goes all on her own! No coaxing required! I guess she knows the drill after having so many people try and talk her into it this past year! She likes her "PIVATCY", and likes to tray a new pair of panties, and pants after going. Hallie likes to make sure Ella goes as many times possible in a day since she usually gets a reward too! I can't take credit for thfirst cute slide show of Claire- that was Lisa's work- so thank you Lisa! I'll try to keep up a little better now!
