Just Like Her Daddy

Seems Claire does have some of her Daddy's traits....She can sleep anywhere at anytime and sleeps hard......I laughed so much at this picture.

YES!!!!!! More Pictures of Claire....

I just had to share this with everyone. I was just playing around with some pictures and made this collage. As you can see I am a very proud Mom and MiMi!!!!!

One Week Old

Thursday, Claire was 1 week old. It's hard to believe that she has changed so much in a week. Of course she is still just as beautiful as ever. Eric and Julie are doing an amazing job as parents. I couldn't be more proud of them than I am right now.

Claire Elizabeth Westerman

Claire's coming home dress. She has more clothes than all of us put together. She is going to be the best dressed little girl in Spring Tx....

She's Here!!!!!

Baby Claire is finally here. She arrived 9-16-10 at 1:08pm. She weighed 8 lbs and was 20 in long and has a head full of blonde hair. We all think she is beautiful. She broke Eric and Julie into parenthood her first night by keeping them up most of the night. But as you can see in the pic above, they are very proud parents. She came home for the first time on Saturday. I can't wait to go back and hold her and spoil her even more.

Waiting on Baby Claire

We are all so excited and impatiently waiting for that call that Eric and Julie are headed to the hospital to have Claire. It's all I can do not to call them everyday and ask how things are. I'm sure they are so tired of me calling and saying "How is Julie feeling today?" Well, it could be any day now. Claire's actual due date is Sept. 13Th, so like I said anytime now. I know Julie and Eric are both ready for her to get here and try to get to some sort of a routine. Of course MeMe is just ready for her to get her so I can hold her and spoil her rotten. Even Megan calls me almost everyday and ask have I heard from Eric or Julie. So we are all ready. Come on little Claire we are all ready to meet you!!!!!

Rat Race

This marks the 3rd week of school. The rat race has begun. Homework, after school activities, soccer and the routine things such as dinner.... Both Kayla and Kyle are doing good. Kayla ended up in an upper classman theater class, but I have told her this will be good for her. They can help her. So she is in a class full of Jr. and Sr. But, I'm not worried, she can hold her on. She is also taking a sign language class this year for her foreign language. She is really doing well. She comes home everyday and teaches me things she has learned. I told her she needed to teach me, then we could sign to each other. Kyle is doing choir in school. He told me yesterday he placed like second for one of the voices with the most range. He has also began soccer practice. Their first game is Sept. 18Th. Well, with all that said, Dennis and I are doing good. Exhausted...LOL!!!! but fine. Now, we are all just waiting on pins and needles for Little Claire to get here. It won't be long now. I talked with Eric the other day and he said Julie is really ready to get it over with. So I say come on Claire we are all waiting very impatiently on you.....I know that they go to the doctor this Wednesday, hopefully things will have progressed and I will be getting a call that they are headed to the hospital very soon. I'm ready!!!! Julie sent me some ultrasound pictures the other day and I must say, even though I'm sure I'm a little prejudiced, that Claire is beautiful. She has the cutest little nose and the roundest little cheeks. Well, hopefully I'll have pictures of us holding her soon to post.
