Long Time No Blog...

Boy, has it been a FUN and BUSY trip to The City! Claire just went down for a nap; and I hope to squeeze in a post or two before she wakes up!

Unfortunately, things are slowly coming to a close here, but we miss Daddy, and we know that he misses us, too! Claire can't wait to have him hold her in his arms and kiss her a million times (she told me this when she woke up this morning). :)

Let's start with the recap and photos already, shall we?

A HUGE celebration took place while we were here...Nanny's Birthday!
Saba took us all out to a lovely brunch at the diner nearby...

I sat VERY close to Claire, as she had her hands on some sticky french toast...

Once we were home, we went all out with Hello Kitty hats, plates, plastic leis, and sparkly candles.

Even Uncle Elliot was a good sport!

Nanny loved her gift from Claire! The Tinker Bell stickers that adorned the outside of the birthday surprise was such a nice touch. Great idea, Claire! :)

Helpful Hint: Babysitting? Looking to entertain a child of your own?! The Answer - PAPER HATS! They are cheap, easily replaced, and a HUGE hit in the occupying time department!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY NANNNY!
I love you!
XOXO, Claire

Look out world, Claire is on a mission: Collecting hearts one city at a time!
