Walking, Walking, Walking

I'm finally getting around to publishing this post. I started it last week, but didn't have time to edit the video I wanted to include. Then, I came down with a stomach bug on Tuesday. We've all been fighting colds as well. I hope they are finally on their way out!

Last Tuesday, the 19th, we had a birthday dinner with Lucian's family to celebrate all the September and October birthdays; myself, Auntie Blanca, Nana Kathleen and cousin Geremiah. We had our own room at the restaurant, which was probably a good thing with all the kids. Claire did great and even remained seated most of the time. However, towards the end she discovered the door out and wouldn't give up on making her exit.

We had a pretty relaxing weekend going out to lunch and running errands. Claire tried her first milkshake from Kopps's, a famous Milwaukee custard place. She tried all 3 of our drinks; a chocolate shake, a cappuccino shake and a vanilla malt. Hard to say if she like one better than the other. She just kept drinking from all 3. I don't have any photos of her actually drinking, but she looks pretty cute looking out the window.

Gotta love pig tails

Claire climbed from her changing table onto her dresser. Sneaky girl.

Little Miss Claire is on the go. It seems that over the weekend she has decided walking is now better than crawling. She walks from room to room and down the hall. It's amazing to watch this transformation. Here are some video highlights.
