Sugar & Spice





At sixteen months Clara decided it was time to stand up and see the world. She went from taking one or two steps to mommy or daddy to cruising everywhere in just a couple days. It stills catches us by surprise to see her walking down the hallway, toddling and proud.

Clara is melting our hearts with her chatter and singing- you can see why little girls are easily spoiled, they are too cute for their own good. Clara adds more words daily to her vocabulary (uh-oh, thank you, cupcake, amen, no, please, cookie) and now folds her chubby hands together to say grace.

She is a perfect female, captivating and full of contradictions...she is sweet and strong, mild mannered and feisty, thoughtful and boisterous, cuddly and independent. Above all, she is daddy's girl (see above reference to spoiling), mommy's little pumpkin, Ben's baby sister and utterly loved.
