How 'bout them DAWGS!!!!!

My little Bulldog has been enjoying football season so far. She sits on the couch next to her daddy and cheers the Bulldogs on to victory!! She is getting very good at the "Gooooooooooooo DAWGS!! SIC 'EM" cheer and has the arm motions down. She's even signed 'Touchdown' a time or two when the announcers say it loud enough :) Of course she does it on command, too!

Last week when I was unable to attend the South Carolina game in Athens, Lee was kind enough to bring back surprises for both of his girls. I got a lovely red vest to wear on game days and Claire received a beautiful A.J. Green jersey! She tried it out for the first time last night during the Arkansas game. She loved strutting her stuff at the restaurant and at

Grandmommy's house while we visited with Grammy and Grandaddy Bill. She looks great in red and black :)

Peering over at us from upstairs at Grandmommy's house...did I mention she learned to climb stairs?!?!?!

Getting behind...

So sorry I've been behind in my postings!  There has been a lot going on and I just haven't gotten around to writing about it.  The big news is that Claire is walking!!!!!!!!!!!!  I am going to try to upload the video of her first steps (YES, I got them on film!) to the blog so everyone can see.  In the meantime, enjoy these few random pictures and keep checking back for more posts!

Enjoying her lunch...all over her face of course!

Getting ready to go to church

Her poor bumpy face!!  She had an allergic reaction to mosquito bites and had big awful places all over her.  She looked like she either had chickenpox or Lyme disease, but luckily, it was only hives.  She's nicely recovered now, thank the Lord :)

Oh, how she loves her Grandmommy!  She celebrated Grandmommy's birthday with her at Provino's.

Go Braves!!

Last Friday night we took Claire to her first Braves game!!  The Braves were playing the Phillies and Lee was able to get tickets.  So, we dressed her up in her pink Braves best and headed to Turner Field.  She had a blast!!  I was a little nervous about how she'd hold up, especially since she'd be confined to our laps for the duration of the game.  She did great.  She made friends with all of the other fans around us, did the Tomahawk chop over and over again, and LOVED the wave.   We even made it on TV--the game winning homerun landed on our row and the camera just catches me running with Claire into the aisle.  There was so much to do and see, she never once fussed or got restless.  What a trooper!  She stayed awake for the entire game and finally fell asleep on the way home.  I think her daddy's dreams have come true...we definitely have a sports fan on our hands!

Look at McLouth!

Having fun in Daddy's lap

We were really close to the action!

Boy does she love her daddy!

Happy girl!
