Meeting the family

Claire's first family gathering/shower went well. Mom, dad and Claire headed down to Faribault yesterday. The house was soon packed with Schember family members. Lots of food, fun and family. Claire was a trooper, although she slept through most of the event, much to the dismay of most who wanted to see those peepers! She is quite the day napper so mom & dad weren't surprised. That did result in Claire being up most of the night and wanting to eat every 2 hours.

We can't wait for Claire to be old enough to play with all of her cousins (first and second). Claire's size was the biggest surprise for most. Most people don't realize how small she is until they see her. But the way she is eating she'll be out of the preemie clothing in a matter of weeks.

Many thanks to everyone for your generosity yesterday!

Dad modeling Claire's new Boppy. Hmm...somehow mom thinks the makers of the Boppy didn't really intend for it to be used this way.

Pete if he let's himself go and quits working out :)
