CLARE!

Alright- sooo Miss Clare has been living up to her red haired stubborn attitude!

#1

Yesterday she wanted a sip of my water that was on the in-table next to me. I told her she could have her own water and handed her a sippy cup. She then proceeded to swat at my glass, knowing that there wasnt much I could do because I was nursing Paul (nursing seems to trump everything I do, since Paul freaks if he isnt eating ALL the time). So I held her hand firmly and told her NO. She then gave up and smiled at me. I am thinking *yay I won* just as she forcefully shoves the entire in table over including my large glass of lemon sparkling water (fave ever) alllll over the newly cleaned carpets. PERFECT. Needless to say- I did end up winning the battle, but we wont go into details there. What Clare needs to figure out is she got her stubborn personality from someone and that someone is her Momma :) Not her laid back father. (maybe Paul will get his attitude from his Dad...please please please)

I have been teaching Clare how to put her toys away. So Grandma was showing her how to put the tupperware back in the tupperware drawer. Grandma put a couple pieces in and then handed one to Clare and Clare put a couple in. Then Clare decided to play Grandma and started handing the tupperware to Grandma to put in the drawer and verbally directing her to. It was priceless :)
