Claire "HANGING" out in the exersaucer

Claire discovered her exersaucer today. She loves it, but has to hang in it since her legs aren't long enough to touch the bottom. She doesn't mind that, but some of the loud noises scared her!
Hey I can spit up and then play in it! What a great toy!
This is great, but.......... aren't my feet suppose to touch the bottom of this thing?


Ahhh, what was that? Oh, it's suppose to make that sound?

Current Weigh in....

Just a quick update. We weighed Claire today. She is now at 10 lbs, 8 oz!!!! We have officially crossed into the double digits and she is officially bigger than Kate when she was born! (knew you were going to say something Beth!) Congrats to Claire and all of her eating success.

Has Claire Grown Any Since Birth?

I know it is sad that she is 4 months old and still wearing the same clothes, but we are making progress. Take a look a decide for yourself.

Claire coming home from the hospital....

.....and now!

See I have grown.

The Zoo

We enjoyed a great day at the zoo with grandma. We were able to ride the carousel, see animals, play on the playground. But the highlight was seeing the baby elephant!

I can't see the animals, soooo, I'll just chew on my bunny.


If I push here......

.....the jelly beans come out here?

Did you know an elephant is pregnant for 2 years before delivering her baby! (I thought 9 months was bad enough.)

The Best Children's Book EVER!!!!

Thank you to the Ferguson family for buying Isabelle the BEST children's book written. This is by far the most entertaining book for parents to read to their children. Check it out! (It even earned a SCSOA~~Scott Croft Seal Of Approval)

A Visit with the Other Croft family

We were thrilled to have an impromptu visit with Scott and Rachel and their newest addition Will. Our quick weekend was highlighted with Claire and Will getting to know each other. That happened quickly when Claire decided to spit up all over Will. Thanks for laughing about it Rachel!!!!

Chef Abby.

Samuel was able to go and play (ie ride around in the cart and keep score) while Abby was able to help Grammy and GiGi in the kitchen. This is her first attempt at the Croft favorite DERBY PIE!

Claire and cousin Will take over the house!

"Hey Will, I bet I can spit up on Grandpa first!"


"Hey Claire, watch what I can make my dad do!!"

Brian VS the Wood Bee!

We have wood bees in our back yard. If you don't know what those are they are bees on steroids! They are huge and very scary, though I am told they don't sting?!?!Will Brian be able to rescue his children from the torment of the bee?



Daddy Daddy, save us from the big scary bee!

Mr Wood Bee, be afraid, be very afraid. I am coming after you and your children and your children's children!! And I am coming after you in my slippers!

Come back here bee! (which way did he go?)

Our Hero!!!

Way to go daddy. (do I have to do it next time???)

Sweet Claire~ We think she is finally growing!

Look I found my hand! (now if I could only get milk out of it!!)

Don't you want to come see me??
