My echo

Ellie was crying while I was getting dressed this morning. I must have been repeating the same phrase to her because Claire went over to her, patted her on the tummy, and said, "It's okay, Punkin." Ellie stopped crying. Claire returned to her T.V. watching.

Go Big Red

My poor girls are going to be so confused about which team to support. Either that or they will be well-rounded. Aunt Dana and Uncle Gary's favorite outfit!

Spicy Claire

Claire decided to explore the powders in the shiny metal tins in the kitchen. Cool, huh? Apparently, her favorites were onion powder and Beau Monde seasoning. I figure these are her favorites because that's what was all over the kitchen floor. She was so proud of herself. The dog has onion breath now.

Just for Ryan

Equal time, right? We love you, Ryan!

Claire vs. the dog's Bitter Spray

The Bitter Spray won. Claire is running around the house squealing with her tongue hanging out and drool running down her face. Funny? No...hilarious! She won't lick the bitter spray bottle again any time soon.

For those of you who don't know what bitter spray is, it's an organic liquid that you spray on items you don't want the dog licking or biting, i.e. doors, plants, furniture, etc. The bitter taste is supposed to deter them from going near the item sprayed.

In this case, our dog, Sam, won't go near Claire...much less lick her.

Geaux Tigers!

While getting dressed this morning, Claire chose her purple sweats and her LSU t-shirt. She pointed to the front of it and said "tiger." Then, while jumping up and down, yelled "Go Tigers!" over and over until I made her stop to put on her socks. Mama Sue and Papa Rex would be so proud.
