Just Claire

Bumbo Seat

Claire's Aunt Jennifer let us use her bumbo seat. I wasn't sure if she was old enough to sit in it yet, so last week we tried it out.







Not sure what we think.



Survey says- We don't like it!

I guess we will try again in a week or so. :)

Matching Again

My friend Kirsten made these dresses for my girls. She is extremely talented. I am not sure if you can tell, but their dresses have their names embroidered on them.

Let's Go Yoga-ing

Brian got me a membership to a gym in town for Mother's Day. I am very excited about it and have gone twice. Last night (my second time going) I wanted to do the 6:30 class but didn't know what it was until I showed up. Turns out it was "power yoga." I was a bit nervous after Jennifer's post, but I thought I would try it out. Here are some of my observations:

1. Up dog and down dog is a position in yoga, not a command to a dog.

2. Apparently, my hamstrings are glued in a too-tight position and have been since 1978.

3. I am not flexible.

4. I do not have good balance.

5. Yikes! I do NOT bend that way!

6. I enjoyed the relaxation part of the class. However, Brian wants to try Yoga and he would fall asleep during the relaxation part and I would have to drag him home. (He falls asleep in less than two minutes).

7. Men don't look attractive doing yoga. (Sorry honey, but maybe you should just try it at home). I too had one male in my class and he looked a little funny doing some of the moves. Then again, so did I.

All in all, not a bad experience, but I couldn't tell if I got a work out or I was just plain worn out from trying to figure out all of the strange positions people were getting themselves into.

First Hair Bow

Smiley Face

Mary Kate has discovered an interest in drawing. She will make all kinds of cute squiggles and will say that they are anything. She drew the features on the face. I made the circle. This is her very first face, that actually looked like a face, so we took a picture of it!

"Claire-Bear"

When Brian and I were talking names and were deciding on "Claire" we decided that we absolutely would not call her "Claire-Bear." Well, we are calling her that. I think it suits her. Not because she acts like a bear, but because she is cuddly and soft and very sweet.

Yes, We Are...

the kind of people that like to match our cute kids!
