TRAINS!!

Have I mentioned how into Thomas the Train Claire is?? Not your typical girly girl stuff but Claire has never been girly girl since day one. And you know what? I love that about her! I was the ultimate girly girl but it's been super easy adapting to what Claire likes. No fru fru dresses, no tights, no fancy shoes. She is still into wearing a super comfy cotton dress and occasionally likes Tinkerbell but overall she's just doesn't know your typical gender differences with toys. I think this is so very 2011 of her!! =) I think no matter what she'll always have this "comfortable" side to her even if she does love more girly things when she's older. I feel pretty confident this is just a huge part of who she is.

Anyways, we took Claire to the McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park this weekend to check out some trains. We rode one around the park (see pics above....you can't tell but she's on the train). You can just see her face light up!

Speaking of her face! Notice the nice cut on her cheek. One of THREE accidents this weekend. A picture frame fell off our bookcase Saturday morning and cut the crown of her head. Not bad but lots of blood at first. The next day she fell into an open drawer in our bathroom and cut her cheek. OUCH! Then she fell at the train park (not pictured above) and has a shiner on her forehead. For real girl. She about gave me a heart attack or early labor this weekend!
