Claire turns 3 months old

 

Our sweet little baby was 3 months old this past Tuesday so Chloe and I took a couple pictures of her.
 

I swear I didn't pose her with her hand in her pocket like that, okay maybe I did but I still think it's cute.

Chloe took this one all by herself, I think she was going for a dramatic angle.

Cousins

 

We had everyone over last weekend and did a little photoshoot with Claire and her cousin Brighton. He is the cutest chubbiest little boy ever! He is only 2 months older then Claire but I think he is like 10 times her size. Those jammies he is wearing, those are 12 month jammies, He is 5 months! He was getting so excited and kept waving his arms when I would take a pic so most of them have a blurry arm right in Claires face, it was so cute and fun!
 

If there wasn't an arm in her face I couldn't get Claire to look at the camera! I just threw this one in to illustrate Brightons excitment!
 

Then another cousin came along and wanted to part of the photoshoot. (Some people say she resembles Big Baby from Toy Story 3) I love to watch Sophia with Claire, I'm pretty sure she thinks Claire is hers! One day I was holding Claire on my lap and Sophia came and offered me a trade, her fake baby for my real one. Im afraid when I accepted the fake baby from her I enterd into some kind of a contract with her that I wasn't aware of.

After Sophia joined us we started drawing a pretty big crowd. Carson was there too, he just wasn't interested in pictures that night! We have 2 new cousins waiting for us up north that we can't wait to meet! I am so grateful that my children have so many fun aunts, uncles, and cousins in thier lives!

A weeks worth of fun!!!

 

Well it really was only a few days worth,it started on St. Patricks Day, the boys had thier pinewood derby. They were really excited about it and had been trying to work on their cars all week (we forgot all about it until the week of) but Billy was sick and not really feeling up to carving a block of wood. So they did pretty much all the work the night before and the day of. They both had awesome cars, Cooper even got first place overall! Im not trying to brag but it was actually out of two wards and he still had the fastest record! I loved watching both of their faces watching their cars come down the track. Coop got first all four races and Carter got 2 firsts and 2 thirds. Cooper gets to go race his at the scout expo now, he is pretty happy about that!
 

Friday was a pretty fun day too. I went out to dinner with my sisters for Karens birthday. I dont have any pictures of it but we had such a good time laughing and just being ourselves. When Billy came home from work (I think he could tell that I was at the end of my rope) he insisted that I leave Claire home with him too. So I had a night out all to myself, that may sound selfish but it was necessary at that point.
 

Anyway, all these pictures are from Saturday, we went to Springdale for a St. Patricks day parade. It was a dinky little parade but we always have fun when we are with Eric, Karen, Carson, Codee, Joni, Jackson, and Sophia!! We went to lunch first then watched the parade, took pictures with each other and some star wars characters, and Coopy was even in a jello eating contest! Then we headed on home.

Here is my sweet little Claire bear right before we headed out the door, she slept in her carseat the whole time so she missed out on all the pictures!
