Claudia has had a busy weekend. On Friday she went to Daddy's concert at WCSU and got to meet all the professors. She sang for each one of them! She wouldnt stop.

The next day Claudia went to church to view the first communion for Riley and Shamus, her cousins. This was followed by a party with all the family. Claudia got a little overwhelmed but enjoyed sitting with her cousins.

Finally, Claudia was the youngest guest at the opening reception for the library where her two brothers were honored for the gift that we made a few years ago. Everyone was very friendly. Even though Claudia slept through most of it they insisted on showing her the childrens floor. She was the only "kid" there so she got a lot of tours and pictures taken. The library looks great.

Claudia turned over from her stomach to back today. Mommy was very happy. Last night Claudia let us go to a concert and she was a very good girl and was asleep when we got home. She has been a very good girl.
She has a few doctors appointments this week where she will get more shots and get measured for everything. Hopefully the weather improves and she can go on more walks with her buddy Abby.

Claudia has had her first visit to Pennsylvania to the farm. She wore her overalls so she could do her chores. Many exciting things happened. She met all the dogs and horses. Her face as she met Citation was priceless. Ci has been with our family for 30 years! Claudia went for many walks with Abby and Toddy. She is using a front facing stroller now so she really enjoys the walks. She played a lot with everyone, even a little with Arnold. She was a very good traveler, sleeping the whole way.

As you can see Claudia got to spend time with Grandma Schneider, Aunt Susannah and Uncle Tyler.

Dad's back has given way, for no apparent reason. Hopefully it gets better so he can play more with Claudia this week.

Claudia got to see many of her Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins as we had a birthday party for Grandma Keating on Saturday. Claudia wore a dress for the first time and looked very pretty. She and Abby got lots of attention, but they were very ready for a nap after awhile.
