Faces

Photo overkill? For sure. But I'm always hearing about how we're sooo bad about sharing pictures of Claire. Plus, I have a hard time picking just a few favorites.

She has so many funny expressions. This is just a sampling and some of her favorites ("I was not ready for my nap to be over," "My diaper has outlived its usefulness," "Don't talk to me like I'm a child," "If you drop me from this height I will never let you forget it," "This Bumbo seat is too confining," "If God wanted me to wear pants, he would have attached them to my body," and "That's a pacifier and it will not pass for a boob," among others) are not pictured.

Notice how rarely she's full-on smiling in these pictures. She's a happy girl and it's easy to make her smile and laugh if you want to, but her default mode is alert and intent watching, listening and learning.

Without further ado ...

She is just too precious. I could smooch up those cheeks for sure. I especially love the first picture. She looks like is about to bust to tell a secret. Way too cute!!
