My shy little girl!

So most of you know how shy Claire can be, but you put a dress on this child and she opens right up! She has been looking forward to shopping for dresses with Marcie for a long time, she loves to try on dresses! Marcie and my mom came this past weekend to shop and she was queen for the day. I am pretty sure Claire thinks Marcie's wedding day is all about HER! As soon as she would put a dress on she would say "this one is beautiful!" and then she would spin around and test the dress out! At the first place we went to, she came out of the dressing room in the first dress and began spinning around in front of a bunch of people she doesn't know! This is a breakthrough for Claire, she doesn't like attention from people she doesn't know. However, a "beatiful" dress transforms her into Cinderella!

The second place we went to gave her one of the bridal changing rooms with the big mirrors and lots of room to spin! She couldn't stop looking at herself! We found several dresses here that Marcie, and Claire, really liked. It will be hard for her to choose!

Here is princess Claire, she really liked the way the dresses would poof out when she sat down. She would sit and stand over and over, after she was done spinning of course!

It was a great day, Claire had such a good time, and we loved watching her. All four of us girls went out for lunch afterwards, and just to show you how attached she is to Cole, when we were leaving she decided she needed to bring home a chip for him. Just one, broken chip. He was very excited and appreciative when she gave it to him!


Cane has found his new favorite spot in our house. Now that he has realized he can pull himself up, (would you want to pull the weight of those cheeks up) he loves to watch outside! When the kids are in the house, he stands and looks out the front window. When the kids are playing out back, he pounds on the back sliding glass door and laughs, I think he thinks he is playing with them!
