Last week I took Claire in for a wellness check with our new doctor. He kept commenting on how “healthy” she looked. Translated, that means she’s a cute little chunker! She weighed 10 lbs 14 oz and was 21 1/2 inches. She is in the 75th percentile for weight and head measurement, and 50th percentile for height. We love having a baby with some chub! I don’t think Link ever got above the 10th percentile at his biggest!

Check out these adorable folds and rolls!

I can’t believe how fast she is growing. Again it’s just such a contrast with Link. Lincoln wore newborn clothes until he was 3 months. Claire is fitting perfectly into 3 month clothes already.

Claire has been a real delight the last couple days. We had a few weeks of fussiness, and hope that’s coming to an end. She smiles more and more and has just started cooing. It’s wonderful to hear other baby noises besides crying!

Lincoln now surprises us daily with all the new things he knows and does. His imagination is flourishing. He and I seriously have a blast together! Recently he got up the courage to lay down on his back in the tub. He’s never really liked water, so this was a real accomplishment.

Also, we’ve been working on our monster faces. But somehow I don’t think this cute boy could ever look scary.

I’m doing great. I can honestly say I’ve never enjoyed being a mother more.
