5 months and a yummy recipe!

 Well Claire continues to grow and change every day. She is quite the busy body and her new thing is chewing on her feet ALL the time. This grosses Grandpa Bernie out, I hear he hates feet!! Claire is also starting to sit up on her own, she is doing the tripod sit, I will post pics of that soon. She still has a way to go but can definitely sit by herself for a few seconds without falling over. She definitely knows her name now as well. She is also starting to really check out Maggie and show interest in her. Dave and I cannot get over how much fast the time has gone!! I cooked the following for dinner tonight and it was a hit, it will definitely be added to our favorite easy and yummy meals!

St. Pete Weekend

 We had a great weekend in St. Pete visiting the Parrish side of the family. Grandma Lee even flew down from Ohio for the weekend. Claire LOVES the water, must be because her parent's do as well. Friday morning we had breakfast at a little beach grill then took Claire for her first dip in the water (feet only), but she loved it. Can't wait till next summer when she can actually play in the sand and enjoy the water. Friday afternoon we hung out poolside at Aunt Pris and Uncle Glen's house. Saturday we went garage selling, to a downtown market and lunch then headed back for some more pool time. Sunday was more relaxing by the pool. As always we had lots of fun family time and yummy food! Can't wait till next year for Claire to have her first ride on Uncle Glen's boat. Thanks to Pris and Glen for their great hospitality!!
