I just ordered these today with the free code we had from Clara's photo shoot with Santa at Christmas.

Our stake had a Harvest Festival outside at the stake center.  We had fun visiting with friends, listening to the talent show performers, and participating in the pie baking contest.  We ate corn dogs, chili, cotton candy (Paul had it, not me - I'm not such a big fan), and watermelon for dinner (not the healthiest menu, I know) and then had pie for dessert.  I really love these fair-type atmospheres with lots of people walking around talking and laughing and just having a good time.

We were going to wait until the 19th (Clara's 4 month birthday) to start her on rice cereal, but I wanted Paul to be around for the whole weekend so that he could be really involved in her first few times trying to eat "real" food.  So far, so good - we have been giving her a little bowl in the morning and in the evening and she is doing a good job about eating almost all of it and keeping it in her mouth and swallowing!

We drove up to San Francisco in the morning so that we could walk across the Golden Gate Bridge, since we had never done that before and I have been wanting too.  It was SO windy and pretty chilly so we kept Clara bundled up in blankets in her carseat for a while but she squawked at us because she wanted to see what was going on so I finally pulled her out and carried her, bundled up still, in my arms so that she could look around.  When we got to the other side of the bridge we put her back in her carseat in the stroller and she fell asleep as we began our return trip to the car.  Afterwards we got clam chowder and sourdough bread bowls at Fisherman's Wharf for lunch.

 When we got home Clara skyped with Grandma Cici and told her all about our day.  And yes, she was sort of sitting up (albeit in a fairly hunched over position) all by herself for maybe 15 seconds without falling over.  She has to use her arms to do it though so she can stablize herself.

After meeting with our caseworker, Heather, I drove over to Santa Cruz with Clara and took her for a LONG walk along the cliffs above the ocean.  It was foggy and cold so I was really glad that I had brought sweatshirts and a blanket for Clara.  We probably walked for 2 hours and Clara never once woke up.

I felt so conflicted putting this cute purple knit hat on Clara.  It looked so darling on her, but it covered up her signature look - her amazing hair.  The ladies at the YMCA daycare were in rapture over her outfit when I took her to the gym with me.

Oh wow, I love these two people so much.  My little family.  This was right after church.
