05/29/2008 - Anna Claire Update

We have added some more pics to the Anna Claire - Month 2 album!

She's now up to 9 and 1/2 lbs., growing at about a half a pound every week. She is becoming more and more alert everyday. We love it when she gives us one of her "full mouth" smiles! She is also discovering her voice and doing a lot of "cooing". We're having a lot of fun with her!

05/11/2008 - Mother's Day

I had such a fun first Mother's Day! The day started off with a card and gift from Anna Claire. She got me a gift certificate to Natural Body. What a thoughtful daughter!! She reminds me of her dad :)


We took Anna Claire to church for the first time. My mom and the Graus joined us and then came over to our house to enjoy a delicious meal that Eric made.


After lunch, Anna Claire and I hopped in the car with Nana to go spend a week at her house. Eric had a conference in Charlotte this week so Nana graciously volunteered to take care of us :)

Anna Claire comes from a family of shoppers so we decided it was time to introduce her to the mall. She enjoyed it quite well. This was her reaction when I told her that we were going shopping :)

05/08/2008 - Anna Claire Turns 1 Month Old!

Anna Claire celebrated her 1 month birthday today. It is hard to believe that she is already 1 month old. She is changing so much each day.

Here are some pictures of her on the cute swaddle blanket that Ali got us.
