Claire is so fun at this age! She is a very silly girl. According to Lisa, our daycare lady, she's the goofiest baby she's ever had. We like goofy around here, so that's quite the compliment! ;) We rarely catch her silly moments on camera, but we did manage to get one goofy cutie pie picture.
About two weeks ago, Claire showed me that she's actually been paying very close attention when we've taught her 'more' in sign language. She'd always just clapped her hands together to mean 'more,' when technically she's suppose to touch just her fingertips together. A couple times when she was eating, she just used her fingertips. I'm sure she just didn't have the fine motor skills to do it before, but she was obviously observant with exactly how our hands moved. She hasn't done it since then, so I'm thinking maybe it just takes too much concentration, and when you're hungry, you're impatient!?
I love that she is able to communicate with spoken words now! She's a talker and she sees balls ALL OVER! It may actually be a ball to play with, or a big red concrete ball outside of Target, or a round object in a book. To her, they're all balls and she's thrilled that she can say that word.
She is also loving her big girl toys. She likes her dollhouse from Grandma and Grandpa, and especially likes when Daddy helps her with it! She likes it when we put the 'baby to bed' and sing it the same song that Mami sings her when she goes to bed. She likes me to rock the cradle for the baby too.
