Birthday Girl!

Our Claire Bear turned THREE years old on July 16th! My baby is really no longer a baby! She is a big girl and does big girl things now! In the past year she has become completely potty trained, gone from a crib to a big girl bed, dresses/undresses herself, brushes her teeth, sits in a booster seat at the dinner table, and most recently... she's given up pacifiers (that will be a later post)! The one thing that hasn't changed is that she still loves to cuddle and lets us rock her. My sweet girl is definitely growing up, but Claire did tell me, "I will always be your baby Mommy, because that makes you happy". Yes, Claire... that does make me happy!
HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY, Claire! We love you as deep as the ocean, as wide as the sea, forever & ever!
I think Claire is making it a yearly tradition to have her pictures taken in her birthday dress with her birthday balloons! Oh well... at least it looks cute!






She LOVES life!

Oh... how I LOVE this little birthday girl!!
