We celebrated Claire’s first birthday today. Grandma Judy was in town and helped put on quite a party, with balloons, toys, presents, a book exchange, and even chocolate cupcakes for Claire and 30 or so of our friends. Also included are a few pictures of Claire’s swimming class yesterday. Click on the photo below for a slideshow.

Father's Day
We celebrated our first Father’s day with a trip to see our friends John and Deanna, whose daughter Marlow was born just six days earlier. We also have some fun pictures of Claire showing off her 96th percentile in height, visiting the park with her friend Lauren, and diving into a big dish of Cheerios at another friend’s birthday party.

Claire’s latest trick is crawling, which she is doing enthusiastically. Click on the triangle play button below for a video showing both her newfound mobility and her curiosity about cameras.
Poppa's 77th
May 30th was the 77th birthday for my dad Peter (who Claire knows as “Poppa”). To celebrate, all of us in his family headed to Oklahoma City to spend four fun days together at the beautiful home Eileen and Abbas recently built. We had a big birthday party, and lots of play time for Claire with her three cousins Sara, Sophie and Susan. Click on the photo below for a slideshow of photos by my Dad and us.
