"If you spend the majority of your days in the company of babies, toddlers, tweens or teens, then your happiness will be directly proportional to your ability to laugh often and enjoy the chaos. The child-rearing years, in particular, are meant to be hectic, playful, and fun!"

Miss Clara Lillian at 18 months

Miss Clara at 18 Months weighs 24lbs (47th percentile) and is 33 inches tall (84%).  She continues to be our long and lean baby.  She is our most fearless child.  She is lightning quick and you have to be watching this lady every second especially at the pool or in the front yard.  Our friends and neighbors can not believe how fast she is.  Speaking of the pool, she has discovered the joys of swimming in the deep end which proves to be quite a sight with this pregnant mama holding onto her.  I think she learns a new word every day.  She loves scolding her siblings and the other night told Laken and Preston, "Hey, guys! Stop it!"  She calls Braeden, Brae or Brae Brae, Preston is Pudgie and Laken is Sissy, but she says it, "CC".  So, we have started calling Lake "CC", too.  She loves, loves dogs  And, has become a bit of a bag lady putting anything she gets her hands on and then some into her toy shopping cart.  She has also discovered a love of costumed characters, mascots etc. which is a first as all the other kids have been afraid of that type of thing.  She loves to high five them.  We just love this precious toddler to pieces.
