Claire woke up early Friday morning with a slight fever and runny nose. She was still very happy greeting us with big smiles, but it made eating and nursing a little difficult. She is doing better today with a mild cough and runny nose. In the photo below we tried to catch her in the act of sucking on her toes (one of her new favorites), but as usual she is interested in the camera as soon as it is pointed in her direction.
I had a wonderful 30th birthday. Claire wanted to start the celebrating early, so she was up at 6 am this morning. As a result, the next photo was taken at 7:45am.
Claire and Andrew decorated the dining room in honor of my big day. Among my presents, Claire helped Andrew pick out a beautiful necklace (that Claire immediately stuck in her mouth as shown in the top photo).
I feel so blessed.
It was very fitting that Laura and I celebrated our 30th birthday today because it was 30 years ago today that our mom's water broke. We weren't born until November 10th, but it was on November 8th that Laura decided to move towards the light so to speak. We went to Danville this morning and ate a birthday brunch together. My mom had a cake for each of us (always important growing up). Laura's cake read "Happy 30th Birthday Nahm 'A'" and mine was written for Nahm "B" because that was how we were referred to by the hospital.
