Another tooth
I noticed that Clara's bottom left tooth is coming in and the right one is also cutting. Very exciting. That is number 7 and 8. We have been waiting so long for them to come in. More teeth for her to use :)

Funny stories from vacation
We got back from a short little vacation at Lake Geneva yesterday. Clara is too much sometimes. I think she had a good time. THe first morning there, as soon as she was out of bed, she was grabbing her coat and wanting to get out and go. She was at the door, still in her PJs with one arm in her coat because that is all she can do by herself saying, BYE BYE. BYE BYE. She got pretty upset if we took her coat away and if we told her that it was not time to go bye bye. Apparently she was ready to go!
Another funny story is that Clara did not take a great nap the second day. So it was around 4 o'clock and we thought that we would put her down to see if she was ready for a nap. Needless to say, she was in NO mood and cried for about 20 minutes before we got her. Matt started to read her a book after that. Apparently she was not fully recovered from the not wanting to take a nap. Matt was reading her the baby book and on the last page, the baby goes to bed for the evening. All Matt said was "Baby goes Nigh-nigh" and Clara LOST it. She started to cry with the biggest poutiest face and big tears. She was so upset. I think she thought Matt was going to put her down again. Matt and I actually both started to laugh but I felt so bad because she was so upset. That baby is getting too smart!

Cold
Clara has another cold. We had done such a great job getting this far without her getting another cold and lo and behold, RIGHT before our vacation, Clara has a runny nose. She was pretty miserable today. She can thank Evelyn for this one! She was here this past weekend coughing and being rather snotty.
Clara really has started talking the last couple of days. She said Preston and Heather yesterday and appears to be repeating a lot of what we are saying. She tries pretty hard and sometimes she can say it pretty well. It is actually pretty neat. We better start watching what we are saying around her because she is repeating a ton right now.

Monty and Mommy
Clara says pretty much the same word for Monty and Mommy. Monty is sort of a Momma and I am a Mommy. There is a subtle difference and Matt thinks that it is pretty funny that she does that.

No Mommy
Clara:
Over the last few days, every now and then, Clara will go through this phase where she does not want ANYTHING to do with me. I think it started on Sunday when I asked her for a kiss. She went as far as crying when I tried to kiss her. She was all over her dad. She even said no to a kiss from me and then asked for a kiss from Matt. What is that all about?!?! She did it today again when Heather was here. It is short lived because earlier that day she was giving me lots of hugs. I feel so bad but I sort of feel like I am ignoring her a little because I have been feeling so poorly lately. I can't wait until the next trimester because I don't think I could feel any worse!
Baby:
We had our first doctor's appointment today. Things went well and we saw the baby's heartbeat. Everything seemed to look good by my untrained eye :). I had a few tests and had to answer a lot of questions. The oddest one is something I am not too sure about. It is a 24 hour urine test. I have to pee in this giant pee bucket for 24 hours. Sort of gross and weird. Not sure how I feel about that. I think I am going to have a hard time doing it every time.
