Claire Savannah Glenn is ONE!

Hard to believe this sweet angel was born one year ago. Our hearts are overflowing with joy and love every time we look at this little girl. She is so amazing!

Happy Birthday Sweet Claire! We love you so much! ~Mama & Papa

Claire had no problem diving into a chocolate cupcake.

It was a monkey themed birthday party.

A monkey cupcake-cake to go along with the monkey bags filled with monkey cups, monkey hats, monkey books and of course...monkey tattoos!

Wetdown

Stu and Chaz giving a "speech" before we cut the cake.

It's not a party unless you have a chocolate fondue fountain.


Congrats Major Glenn & Major Downing

Eric, Stu, BP, Joel & Chris=good times!

What a Face!!

Messy Eater

At 10 1/2 months, Claire's favorite foods are: beans, string cheese, bread and puffs and of course MILK. I'm hoping she won't be a picky eater, but lately she only wants one or two of the above listed.

Clapping because she just ate.

BEANS!!

And more beans!

She loves feeding herself.

Messy, but so cute!

Claire's First Christmas

A new Laugh & Learn Kitchen from Mama & Papa

Clothes from Grandma Lina

Woohoo!! A talking Elmo remote control (but she still goes after the real remote)

A dancing, talking, singing Mickey Mouse!

I don't know who is more terrified, Claire or Santa?

Her Favorite Places in the House

Next to the Christmas tree,

On the kitchen floor (which requires me to keep my floor extra clean),


In the bath,

...hanging on the entertainment center,

Standing up, hangin on mama's leg,

Under the coffee table,

...and hanging on the entertainment center...again.

Busted!

Claire looking innocently at the camera as she bangs on the entertainment center.

Clap Your Hands!

Claire and I enjoying our snack time together. Claire has recently discovered how to clap her hands and also say, "Ba, ba, ba." Which may be because I often call her "Bubba."

Happy as can be sitting with Uncle Ronnie and chewing on Mama's phone...ahh, the simple things in life!

Thanksgiving 2009

Grandpa Fred was visiting from New Mexico for the Thanksgiving holiday. As you can see from this picture, Grandpa Fred had a few desserts at the Glenns. Claire had her first taste of pie and whipped cream, as well as black-eyed peas.
