Trapped!

The little boy is trapped! (And cute, in my opinion!)

Claire, 4.5

Claire is 4 and a half now! I thought it’d be fun to celebrate a tiny bit. She played pet salon in the morning,

and then we went to HEB. I “splurged” and bought us donuts from the bakery in the store.

We had a picnic lunch at the park.

Some cousins came over for dinner, and we had cupcakes, too!

Dayton - 10 Months

Our little guy is 10 months now! He’s pretty fun to have around! He crawls all over the place these days. He pulls himself up and walks while he’s holding onto furniture and other things he can reach. He can play peek-a-boo and kind of waves sometimes. He still has two teeth. He would rather be moving than be still. He loves to eat bananas. He also likes to eat just about anything else I’ll give him. And he can really eat a lot! I love his sweet smile, and I love his laugh. Enjoy these pictures of Dayton!

Piano Keys

Dayton can barely reach them,

and Claire made some out of legos!

Hold On!

Claire loves being big enough to pick up Dayton. It doesn’t always look comfortable for Dayton, but at least he’s happy!
