Day 6 with Claire!

It's hard to believe it's only been 6 days with Claire!  We are loving every minute we spend with her!!

Saturday was a free day for us so we went to Shaiman Island again.  I wanted to do more shopping and take some more pictures of her with the beautiful flowers. 

Look who decided to start walking!!!


 She of course wouldn't smile when I wanted a picture of the two of us! :)

 Sweet serious baby!
 The island is beautiful, the architecture reminds me a lot of New Orleans.
 Isn't this a pretty Starbucks?
 SO mad I didn't check the settings on the camera before taking this! I hope I can fix it in photoshop because I love her big smile!


 She started playing around with Ryan and was loving being silly!
 LOVE this one!

 That night we crashed another adoption groups' dinner. :)  We are traveling alone but there are lots of groups traveling here together.  The friends we made are in this particular group and invited us to go to their dinner.  It was so fun to hang out with other adoptive parents and kids!
 The restaurant we went to.  It was SO good.
 In our hotel after dinner.
 We tried to get a picture of the two girls togther but here Isabelle was not having it.
 So we tried the couch and Claire wasn't having it.  Look at the look Isabelle is giving her! :)
 So we added the mommy's and Isabelle took off.  Oh well, we tried!
Claire has been so so happy.  She really only fusses during normal baby times now, when tired or hungry!  She used to cry every time we went into our hotel room and we'd have to calm her down, but we just realized that today and yesterday she didn't do that, she feels comfortable now I think.  We are just so so grateful, thankful, and blessed.   And only 4 more days until we see our boys, yippee!!!!!

Oh my gosh she is just so cute! I loved seeing her walk around, it's wonderful seeing her get so comfortable with you and Ryan. Your boys had great weekend with us-we can't wait to see you in just a few days!
