Claudia is TWO!


This morning we went to Chuck E. Cheese which was Claudia's big present that she wanted. We are trying to have a relaxing day. She has opened a few presents and likes the easel Mimi got her a lot.

Claudia likes showing Baby Joseph Henry how to do everything. She shows him how to eat breakfast, watch TV, and how to draw with crayons.

Claudia has had a tough couple of days. We don't think she is really sleeping at night so we bought a humidifier and we are hopeful. She has been coughing a lot at night. She has been trying hard, but largely unsuccessful, in being her normal cheery self.

Aunt Susannah and Mimi have been visiting for the big day tomorrow (2!). Today we went looking for some big girl beds (and a sleeper chair for Mimi) as the rooms are about to be shuffled. We are waiting another week or two before designing the new room.

Today Claudia went to the Christmas Party at Monkey Business. Santa was there. Tonight we go see cousin Hunter who gets to skate on the ice between periods with his team at the minor league hockey game in Bridgeport. Many of you "old timers" laugh when you hear "minor league hockey in Bridgeport". We will let you know how it goes.

You can see that our map on the right got reset this past week. Last years map is copied to the bottom of the blog. Lets work on filling the map up again with red dots.

Claudia has been pretty sick. This is really her first cold. She has been a very good girl with no complaints (she probably doesn't know any better).

Santa visited Southbury two weeks ago and she did not want to sit on his lap, which is fine. We think she might now. But she was sick last night and missed him in Southbury. He comes to Seymour tonight at school so we hope to be well enough to see him then.

Me: "What do you say when you see Santa?"
Claudia: "Ho, Ho, Ho".
Me: "What do you ask him"
Claudia: "Please, Santa"
Me: "Are you going to ask him to bring you anything for Christmas?"
Claudia: "Yes, presents"
