Carrying on a conversation

I was driving home from work the other night and decided to call home to check on my family. Jeff put me on speaker phone and before I know it, I am having a 5 minute conversation with my daughter! She was answering my questions about her day and when Jeff would prompt her about something, she would tell me about it. I don't know when Claire became such a chatterbox, but I have a feeling she is going to be quite the talker! She is saying 3 and 4 word sentences now. After I hung up the phone, I almost started to cry. My little girl is growing up too fast.

We got to take our first dip in the pool on this past Wednesday. The water was chilly when we first got in, but we quickly adjusted. Claire had lots of fun and she even let me pull her around in the pool while she lay on her tummy.

Claire got to spend the past 2 days with her Daddy. The first day Jeff taught Claire to count to 5. The second day Claire wanted to learn more so Jeff taught her how to count to 10! When I got home from work, she was very eager to show me how she could count to 10. She sometimes needs help with 6 and 9, but otherwise she does excellent! We are so very proud of her and how much she is retaining every single day.
