Getting to know her





There comes a time when you have a baby that their personalities start coming out and you begin to know more about who they are. Here is what I have seen in Claire so far. She has a sweet spirit and loves to smile and dance. Give the girl a beat and she will move! It is so cute. She hates baby food but will eat the real thing. Ex: green beans! I guess the texture of the pureed food is yucky! Claire has a bad temper attached to a short fuse...OOPS she is just like her momma! LOL! She loves to watch her sister play and can't wait to join in but on the other hand she is in no hurry to crawl. If she knew she could do it and where it would get her I'm sure she would be all over it.


This brings me to some thing I have been thinking about from God's perspective. (You learn a lot about the heart of the Father when you watch your own children.) Caleb & I have been watching Claire, trying to teach her, and we have been rooting for her to crawl. We often say to each other she CAN do it, she just doesn't realise she can. We know that she already has the skill and capability to crawl but SHE has to know this. It is a picture of God looking at us. He is rooting for us, teaching us and expecting us to do it anytime. He says they have the skill Its been given to them. They just have to walk in it! Our minds need to be renewed to the place that we realise what we have been given and we trust the giver. Mr. Giver!!!

Can't you just see Him up there...rooting for us!


Anyway back to the Bear. Caleb lowered her crib yesterday another milestone. Time sure is flying. I am including some pictures of her.

Here is a cute picture of Morgan watching Thomas the Train this morning. (Did you really expect me not to throw one of her in? Of course not!)

I love the pictures of the girls. Thanks for reminding me that God is rooting for us all. I hope that Clair will crawl soon. Before you know it she will be all over the place and you will be wondering why you ever wanted her to crawl.

It makes me so sad to see how fast she is growing up! Layton is right behind her, WHERE DID ARE BABIES GO????
