More Birthday Pictures




When we went with Katie and Alex to get their photos done, the photographer did a couple photos of Claire in her birthday outfit (thanks Eric and Kelly), we didn't really order any except some wallets since we had just done her 18 month photos. Anyways I wanted to share them with you and if you really want one printed we can do that just let me know.

Claire turns 2

We had Claire's second birthday at my parents house this year, they have the best yard and the day was perfect. Claire had so much fun and had been preparing for the big day by singing Happy Birthday and blowing out a flame from a grill lighter we had. She did a really good job blowing out her candles. Her party was a Curious George theme, her favorite cartoon.



Claire is growing so fast, she can count to 10 and doesn't leave out 4 and 5, she says her alphabet all the way through. She sings Itsy Bitsy Spider, Twinkle Little Star, Rock A Bye Baby and Jesus Loves Me all by herself. Her newest phrase is "Don't touch me" and "Don't look at me" also "But Why? when asked to do something she doesn't want to do, or she acts like she doesn't understand by saying "Huh?". Claire's favorite music group is Bon Jovi, also a favorite of Grandma and Grandpa Hein. Claire is a very passionate child, who loves everyone she meets. Claire loves babies so she will be a great big sister, we can't wait to complete our family. We love her so much and thank God for her everyday.
Thank you everyone who attended her party, your presence means the world to us as we are so thankful to have such wonderful friends and family who love our child so much!

Hein's Greenhouse

Claire got to spend some time at my Aunt and Uncle's Greenhouse in Torrington, WY, they were having their Cinco De Mayo open house, so my parents were there too. She had so much fun and got to help Aunt Sara plant some flowers that we took home.
