Clara in April

Here's Clara in April! 

We took our first trip to the Manitowoc Zoo. She got her picture taken while we were there...and of course Abby had to come along, too. 

We've just kind of been on cruise control with her lately. She is pretty much day-time potty trained. She still has occasional accidents, but for the most part she's really good. 

The weather has finally started getting decent so we've been spending a lot of time outside, or as much as we can when the weather is nice. We brought her play house from Mimi & Papa's and she loves playing in it...except for the one time there was a bunny hiding in the cabinet in the play kitchen. She's still traumatized from that!

The net-thing she's wearing on her head is the butterfly house that I bought. It comes with a certificate for 5 caterpillars. We're going to raise them and release them when they turn into butterflies! I think it'll be really neat. 

I plan to take them both to the Memorial Day parade. They both went last year, though Sam was just a tiny baby. I think they'll both like it. 

I also think that one of these days, I'm going to start writing down all the hilarious things she says. She is learning what the street signs are so she has turned into quite the backseat driver! 

I can't believe that she's 2.5 already. The time is just flying by. Pretty soon we'll have to start thinking about what to get her for her 3rd birthday!
