Getting into Trouble

Well now we have 2 kiddos that make a mess when you are not looking.
My little Cutie!
Claire-Bear is at her best! Not to mention the food on her face. She is an eater all right. Never stops and is not picky at all.
Could not resist the chocolate on Valentine's Day and was screaming for more.

Soccer is Coming!

We went out to get Sean his soccer cleats and gear and he was so excited he wanted to get suited up and kick the ball around the backyard.

Rawhide

We went out to Rawhide and spent the day at the western town The kids went on the train and Sean was almost put into jail. The judge was arguing with Sean and raising his gavel but Sean would not back down and was yelling back.
Claire liked her hat and the weather was so nice I am glad she got one to shade her from the sun.
Poor Claire was looking so good here we thought she was out of the woods with this nasty stomach flu. Little did we know she was still very sick and "could not hold her cookies" at dinner.

Playing Around

We went to the zoo and now every time the kids go near the rhino they have to climb and play around on the trees.

Chocolate Festival

We were able to go on a chocolate factory tour and see chocolate covered strawberries, candied nuts, and chocolate pretzels were made. YUM! The kids could not resist all the goodies.
Dave wanted to get this chocolate covered cheesecake but little did we know Claire would go absolutely nuts for it. She would scream and would not let anyone have it.
We walked around to festival, listened to so much,and ate more chocolate. Double YUM!
The kids were having so much fun in the stroller at the end of the night.

Climb the Mountain

Sean and Dave decided to climb this mountain at the zoo and it was such a cute photo opt.

Disney on Ice

We took the kids to Disney on Ice and Sean sat still for the entire time. He could not wait for Buzz Lightyear and Woody to come out. I guess we have been talking about Disney so much he knew all the characters that we don't normally see. Claire did not want to sit after the intermission so she was not as calm. Do you believe the little swirly light thing costs $22 and popcorn is $12? CRAZY!

Reading the Menu or Not

We went out for pizza and Claire was reading the menu (even if it was upside down). She was having a blast playing around.

Playing Outside

Sean and Claire are now in a new phase of hugging and kissing each other. It is the cutest thing in the world. Claire runs over and puts her arms around Sean. So we finally took advantage of this and grabbed the picture above.
If the door is open and Claire is not invited outside she will start to cry hysterically. She loves to be outside and when you open the door she tries to slip by. Her favorite things to do are: run around the backyard without her shoes on, pick up and throw a ball, and play on the curb going up and down it.

Clean Teeth

Sean went for his 3 year old dental appointment and came out with a bright smile and clean teeth. Dave and I were shocked that he laid their without a fuss and let the lady clean his teeth.

Claire's First Haircut

The after picture ----The reward at the end of the haricut was ever so sweet for Claire.
We were at the end of the haircut and Claire was getting a bit fussy so we gave her the phone to play with.
Claire sat through most of the haircut like a perfect angel. She did not even flinch as the hairdresser cut her hair.
We just wanted to get all the uneven ends off Claire's hair. The hairdresser said Claire has a perfect A-line hairdo so it made it easy to clean it up.
The before picture.





Hanging Out!

Claire loves to find small buckets and things to smoosh herself in. So here she is hanging out in some of our buckets.
Sean was helping to make a brownie mix and then the phone rang. So we have a brownie face and Sean on the phone...priceless.
