Clara says the Pledge - and sings!

Clara really enjoys reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. I think it's awesome!! She did it several times, so I'm going to post just a couple. Not perfect, but I'm thinking for a recently turned 2.5 year old, it's pretty good :) (biased mommy here)





And a video of Clara singing Row Row Row Your Boat, Jingle Bells and the ABCs:


Open Gym Time!

Knocking over blocks, clapping to the beat, riding on a car like the coolest big sister ever and swinging from up high!

It's been cold and wet and rainy and just yucky around here lately, so Saturday morning I decided we needed something fun to do that was "park like" without being out in the nastiness. I did a couple of coupon and local searches and realized that the place where Clara does ballet was having an open gym time for members - perfect! off we went.

Clapping for some kiddos
This is so fun! 






Daddy has such fun ideas!
After Bryan built these structures for Clara to crash into, several of the other parents did it for their kids. Such a trend setter, Bryan :)




She wanted to transport blocks, so she put two cars together and stacked accordingly. I thought that was pretty brilliant!



The girls had an awesome time! Both of them found a few little friends to play with (although I don't know the families well so I didn't include them in any pictures on the blog). They were exhausted by the time our hour and 15 minutes was up, and they both took really good naps :)

Evans Trio

Clara picked out the coordinating hair accessories :)

Ladybug Butterfly

This precious polka dot chica makes me smile an insane amount! 

Her fabulous sense of style is a frequent reason. Allow me to share her ensemble from yesterday:

Sister sit here too on chair, mama!

What's mine is yours too ... Sometimes ;)


Love :)

Happy Friday!

Softly Snoring Snuggles

Sometimes I'm just so sleepy I can't even burp before I fall back asleep on Mommy.

Toddler Mommy


One highchair booster = carseat for Babydoll

Mommy's purse containing an Emma diaper, a blanket and a pretend banana = diaper bag

Bus climbing structure = car

Toy golf club = ???? either discipline or a family golfing trip.

They hadn't even been "driving" for 30 seconds before Clara shoved the pretend banana in Babydoll's mouth and signed as if exasperated. 

Being a mommy is hard work! And takes a little imagination too, apparently :)

Clara cracks me up!

Our 9month old is wearing Newborn slippers. 


Don't let her size fool you though; she is fierce!
