New Hair Do's

Nate was watching Claire one morning while I slept in and this is what they did! He said she wanted them ALL in there. I guess she did because when I tried to take them out she got upset! The other is me experimenting with pigtails. What do you think? And I cut off all my hair and dyed it back to brown after a really bad haircut/highlight experience in Altus, OK. Why did I get my hair done in Altus again? Anyways. All better :)

Turkey Day

We had a great Thanksgiving with Nate's family coming to visit. Claire loved all the attention :) Here are a few pictures

Colors

One of Claire's favorite activities right now is coloring. When I worked at Southwest Paper in Wichita I bought this huge roll of butcher paper for wrapping presents at cost. Well it was too thin for that but I saved it for when I had kids. It works perfect for Claire. She loves it when I draw things and she recoginizes what the object is. I have to admit that I only know about 10 things to draw but I am learning to be an artist. It stinks when I draw a dog and she thinks it is an elephant :( Oh well...Have a good week!

Nate's Plane

When my Dad was here to visit we went on a tour of the C-17. This plane is so amazing and HUGE. I couldn't believe how big it was inside. You could have thrown a football in there. Anyways. So, that is why we are so small. Claire just loved it and kept making the airplane noise. Update on Nate and flying...Still waiting for his waiver. They won't do anything until after his follow-up appointment with the ENT which I think is next Tuesday.

Daddy Survived!

Nate has been catching up on some training requirements lately. He has been to water survival where they threw him in the real ocean and then he got sent out in the woods with a compass and had to paint his face with camo. We thought it was pretty funny! We are so glad he passed :)

More Halloween Fun

Claire's Aunt Kay sent her a Halloween book (Thanks Aunt Kay!) and I gave it to her at breakfast. What a mistake...She wouldn't eat breakfast unless the card and the book were propped up and looking at her. If they fell down she freaked until I put them back up. Then she proceeded to feed the cat (on the card) and the bunny (on the book) her yogurt. It was pretty cute.

Happy Flying

Claire was a pilot for Halloween. We just went to a few houses but she really enjoyed getting candy. Her favorite was the suckers and she knew they were in her bag. You can also see in one of the pictures, Claire in the middle of a fit. How fun she is lately :)
