Claudia is off at a movie with Grandma and may stay over night, I think Monique is with them as well. Should be fun.

Tomorrow Claudia should go running with me and the team. She has been asking to run "on the road". I think she thinks thats how the big kids do it.

Claudia got her haircut yesterday. She took about three inches off. Still long, but a bit more managable.

Claudia has been a really good sister, but we can tell she needs a break from Molly now and then. By the end of the day she starts to get worn down pretty good. It will be nice to get back into a routine again with her.

Today Claudia and Daddy went out for a special dinner. Claudia got dressed up very nice and even wore here special bracelet that Aunt Pat gave her. She was very excited to go out "just by herself!". Sometimes we think she needs a little time away from the Molinator.

She had pizza and coconut ice cream. The ice cream made her happy. She remembered that she had it at the Indian Restaurant last year!

Claudia is a very polite date and lots of fun. It was a special time that we really enjoyed.

Claudia won a free game!

Claudia just returned from her big trip to Virginia. She spent three days in Williamsburg catching up with the SanFanAndre/Box family at the reunion. She got to meet her great-great Uncle Ralph and Aunt Jane.

She also had fun at Busch Gardens. Her favorite rides were the TeaCups and she also liked the floating balloons. But she probably liked the German band and dancers at lunch time the best. She got to eat that meal with her whole family.

One really fun thing was taking the ferry from Delaware to New Jersey. We got pretty far out in the ocean for this ride.

Claudia got to spend two days with Aunt Pat who "spoils her rotten" thats for sure. We went swimming with Pat and she took us to the beach. This was the first time they had seen each other and they are now super-buddies.
