We spent most of your 9 month days in Utah.
*You are such a happy baby Clara! You rarely fuss. You have the sweetest big brown eyes and when ever people are around you they talk about how sweet you are.
*Because we spent a lot of time in Utah you were able to see a lot of my extended family members. Everybody loved you and went on about how much you look like me. It was fun to pull out baby pictures and see just how much we really do look a like! I always say you look like your Grandpa Farr because I look pretty much exactly like him I just have a whole head of hair! So since you are bald like him you definitely look a like!
*You have gotten very comfortable at getting yourself from the sitting up position to the laying down position and the laying down position to the sitting up position.
*You are very good at getting around and still aren't crawling the most common way. Its army crawling for you little girl and you are fast!

*You absolutely love grandpa and grandma's big bathtub. You swim back and forth. It's seriously funny. The water isn't that deep but because you have the softest skin ever you just have to slide your little arms forward and you can glide around wherever you want to go! You love bath time!
*Sleeping has been great this month. It must have been the high altitude and dark basement or something because you took two 2-3 hour naps a day. You went to bed at 7:00 pm every night and slept until around 9:00 am. I would give you one bottle around 11:00 pm right before I went to bed. But wow can you sleep!
*A long with sleeping I should add that you still love to be tightly swaddled up like a little newborn before we put you to sleep. I always lay with you and feed you a big bottle of formula and oatmeal and you fall right asleep in my arms. There's nothing better than holding my sleeping baby!
*You have a thing with hair. You will pull it (especially mine) whenever you get a chance. You also try to eat it! Anyway, when we have you in the stroller with Olivia (you sit behind her) you always lean forward and grab a handful of her hair with a little smile on your face. Part of me wonders if you really know what you are doing :)
*You are so good with your hands. Instead of grabbing food we put in front of you with your entire hand you use your two little fingers to pick it up. It's quite impressive!
Clara I could go on and on about how absolutely perfect you are. We love every little part of you and are so grateful that you are a part of our family. Every minute spent with you are minutes I will cherish always.
But seriously...STOP growing up!
