First Airplane Ride



We all survived Claire's first airplane ride. That sounds a bit harsh, but it actually went smoothly. On the way to North Dakota, we were seated at the back of the plane with a couple of other families with small children. Claire had a few unsettling moments, but did well. The flight back to Massachusetts was a dream. Our initial flight, which would have consisted of an hour flight to Minneapolis and a three hour flight to Boston, was cancelled. Instead, we ended up flying an hour to Denver and four hours to Boston. Claire slept the entire trip, take-off, landing and all. She was incredible. Several people commented on how she was such a great baby. She really was great. In a couple of short months, she'll be in the sky again. We can't wait!

I think this must be a Svor baby trait - Grayson is a great airplane traveler as well (although he NEVER slept that long!). Claire is so adorable! I'm so glad we got to meet her and I loved getting to rock her to sleep.

Hi Kara!
Well, because Lauren is sick with a BAD cold, we're using her lesson time to look at you and your beautiful family. Congratulations!
You are a radiant mom, and I wish you and yours the happiest Christmas season. I'll keep checking your blog for more photos. Sometimes I love the 21st century!

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really

Progress

I used to be prompt about scrapbooking in Claire's album. After seeing my sister's pictures piled up three children later, I was determined not to have the same fate. I am sure it is difficult for some of you to believe, but since Claire has been born, my free time has been limited. Really, it has. So, our pictures are finding their way into piles too--5 to be exact. However, I am thrilled to say that I finished (ok, they aren't completely finished, but nearly. I only have journaling to do.) six pages. Yes, that's right, I said SIX!! It was a major accomplishment. Here they are for your viewing pleasure. Only 5 more months left to get through....any volunteers? Jessica???

Claire, Mya and the NEWS

Chris and I had this elaborate plan on how we were going to share the news with our girls. I ordered adorable shirts, which took forever to get here. They were supposed to ship Oct. 4, but didn't. I am not a patient soul at all. I love to share good news and spread the excitement. We went to a German doctor last week for a gender reveal ultrasound. He was 99% certain of his selection. Claire and I began looking at clothes online. She asked questions about why we were looking at baby clothing, but thankfully, my sister has a little guy and a baby girl who is due in December. They are my perfect excuses for all things baby! Claire asked nothing more and began pointing out things we should buy Jackson or the new baby girl. Our weekends typically involve partaking in a local event or just relaxing, which means a trip to the KMCC Mall. Saturday we went shopping or at least looking. Once again, the girls became excited, choosing items for Jackson or the new baby girl. I decided I cou
