A few more firsts...

Today Claire & I were rocking in her chair & talking and she was touching my face and stroking my hair. Then she grinned and patted my face a little harder. I told her 'gentle' like I do everytime and she looked at me and said 'gentle.' It was so cute!

Claire has become much more verbal over the past couple of weeks. She is also filling out a bit more & can almost keep her 6-12 month size pants up. We had a couple of warm days this week and she loved the sunshine. Her favorite thing to say is 'uh oh.' She is very expressive.

Claire is now an expert at climbing the stairs so we had to get the baby gate out. I took a few photos of her in action which are below:

Oxley has been warming up to her a bit more as well. They played tug-of-war the other night with one of his toys. Claire has quite a strong grip and is very determined.

Tomorrow Josh & I celebrate our 7th Anniversary! I can't believe how time flies! God has blessed us so much and as we find ourselves reflecting on these past seven years of marriage, we are so thankful.
