The girls today



It was a windy day. A gusty, blustery, windy day.
Jane had to take her umbrella with her on our walk to Hannah's school. On the foot bridge, the wind reached it's max and it literally swept Jane and her open umbrella backwards. Passers by were actually quite concerned for her, that her little body might just get blown away (???).
Anyway, as I helped her across the breadth of the wind tunnel, she kept saying,
"I can't fly away! I can't fly away!"
I think she really thought she might.

When Dan told Hannah this afternoon that he had to get on an airplane to fly to SLC for work, she coyly and indirectly asked if she could go along by saying,
"Can little people go with you?"
We took Dan to the airport and Hannah had a hard time letting go of him, literally.
After the car doors were closed and we finally started to drive away, Hannah said to me,
"I know!!!" (lightbulb) "If I stay with Daddy all the time, then I won't have to miss him!"

Claire has passed her 6 month marker, but I thought I'd give an update.
Here it is :

She is so stinkin' cute!

But that's not news :)

She is quite average in her numbers:
50th percentile for head and weight
75th percentile for length

She is making plans to crawl, I know it. She can go from point A to point B in every other which way, so I know she has the desire to move. Soon, too soon...

Ah, my three favorite little people.

Such cute little people you have! I cannot believe how fast Claire is growing up! I guess it's more noticable the first 12 months? Wow!

ADORABLE! All 3!!!

I love that picture of Jane. It reminds me of a moment in a children's book.

Makes me want to leave now, to come home.

How can she be six months already?!

I love the stories. I too, am sure glad that little Jane didn't fly away! :)

That last picture of the three of them is just precious. So So SWEET!!
