My Baby is 4 months Old!

My Little Claire.... I see so much of Brian in her.
  Claire and Zane....she's enjoying her new Bumbo seat.


Claire just turned 4 months old on the 29th and I am happy to see my little girl growing and reaching new milestones but my heart is sad knowing she will never be 4 months again, and before I know it, she will soon be like Melissa, getting ready to fly on her own. Since Claire is my last child I am really enjoying every moment. I am enjoying being a stay at home mom and picking her up when she cries and spending special moments with her. I love the way she smiles at me when I am nursing her like we are talking to eachother and the way she grabs my finger and holds on tight making my hand move to where she wants it to. I love her bald head and the translucent color of her skin showing every blood vessel on the surface. I love the way she coos and talks to herself when she wakes up in the morning and I am downstairs listening on the monitor. I love the way she lights up when one of her siblings come into the room. I love so many things about her and I am blessed to have her in our home and be her mother.

Claire does have a lot of Brian in her, but she's as beautiful as her mommy! Isn't it amazing how these tiny babies grow up and so fast? Stop the clock!!!

oh my gosh, okay audra is right, claire looks like a baby doll!!! she is such a beautiful baby, i bet you loved President Monson's conference talk about how we need to appreciate the time with our children and how we should learn to love to pick up after them because time flies by and sooner than we think they will be grown up! this entry reminded me of that talk! hope all is well!!

I thought your kids looked a lot like Brian until I saw that picture of you when you were a little kid. They totally look like you! you should post that picture on here and see what everybody thinks after seeing that.

I love the bumbo seat. Maren loves hers as well.

It's so fun to watch all of the babies grow. Claire is such a little pretty.
