Clara's personality is bursting through and there's nothing we don't like! She has got to be the happiest baby! All you need to do is smile at her and she will give you her bright smile, big eyes, kicking legs, and rolling hands, she gets her whole body into it! My dad can't get over it and just laughs as she reacts to a simple hello. He often calls her Happy by name.
She is chubbier than ever and is now being called Little Miss Chub Chub by her siblings, Koko especially. The rolls on her back, the thunder thighs, the roly-poly hands…yum.
Clara has all sorts of new tricks now. She sits up like a champ, waves her hands when she wants you to pick her up, does the "lean" when she wants you to put her down or give her to someone else, is eating solids, and just recently started clapping! The clapping is to die for. Roman and Capri were playing with her and got her to clap first. We gave her such a big reaction that she thought it was so great and kept going. She has a shoulder army crawl but mostly rolls around. It's hilarious. She even turns directions or changes sides to get where she needs to go.
I feel desperate to savor this time with her. It's going by all too fast and I just can't get enough of it. Love you Clara Jane!

Nothing better than my baby girl asleep on my chest...
