Finding Nemo

Clara loved the pet store and seeing all of the kittens, birds, fish, and even a hopping chinchilla! Like all children in the past five years, Clara chose the name Nemo for her new fish friend. She was very excited to see him swimming around and "hiding" under his plant. We're wishing Nemo the best for a long fish life!

After the excitement of settling Nemo into his new home, they enjoyed a snack together.

First Tricycle

Chris is home from his week long business trip, and first thing after breakfast, he put together Clara's new Schwinn Classic Tricycle. She was so excited to see it put together after having seen the box sitting there all week. She was dancing around and helping Daddy lay out the parts. Bunny of course got the first ride, but Clara soon took her first turn. We'll need to work on using the pedals, but for now she is pushing herself along and practicing steering. She loves the streamers and the bell the most. With the rainy weekend ahead of us, we're sticking to the basement, but more pictures will follow when the trike gets it's first road/sidewalk test.
