My Claira

In one of my earliest postings I detailed how similar Ellia and Claira seemed to be. Well, Claira is definitely showing how different she is now that she is out of Newborn-dom. Sure, she has no choice but to "go with the flow" most of the time. But the fact that she does still warms my heart. She doesn't freak out when I have to cut her cozy feeding off to assist in a 'potty demand'. She is getting so much better in the car inside her dreaded carseat. She smiles and giggles and guffahs everyday. She seems to know just how to fit in, already. She looks at us with such love and adoration, as if she's fallen madly in love with us. And we return the gaze and count our blessings.
