NHL Playoffs

As promised, I took a few pictures of Claire during the first week of hockey playoffs. We talked about our picks for the Stanley Cup and not surprisingly, Claire and I disagree. She said "I'm going with Washington because the Great 8 is too good". I argued the point that Chicago is well rounded and fairly young which should help them in the long post season. She then responded by saying, "DA DA DA DA". I guess we just agreed to disagree.

This past week has been full of our baby girl chasing Presley around the living room. I find it interesting how patient Presley is with her. The dog could be chewing on one of her bones and Claire will crawl-walk up to her and start reaching for the bone. Presley doesn't growl or even move away. She kind of just looks up to see if she will be losing her bone to the newest member of the family.

I have decided to start a new countdown for Claire. I am calling it "Tooth Watch 2010". Sheila and I have been saying to each other for months now that Claire's teeth must be coming in. We didn't just come up with that on our own. We read many books that gave time lines and symptoms. Claire has fit all of them. She has been drooling since she was five months old. She chews on just about anything she can find. The last thing was when her temp that ran up to 101 last week. We were certain that her teeth were the culprit. Now every time I talk to Sheila and she says Claire is being fussy, I jokingly say it must be her teeth. We will be sure to keep you updated on "Tooth Watch 2010".
