Rich, Ang and Claire Marie

<$BlogItemBody$>

I can't believe how big Claire is getting already! She is 13 1/2 lbs and 24 1/2 inches long. She laughed (a real laugh) for the first time today and it was adorable! She was also diagnosed with a double ear infection. She was at the Dr's last Wednesday and they say to watch for a temp at the end of her cold because that would mean she probably has an ear infection. She hasn't been sleeping at all since last Thursday (up every hour or two) and then developed a temperature over night. I feel like a horrible parent for not realizing she wasn't feeling good this whole time. She was put on some antibiotics and pain meds and hopefully she is better soon.

Rich's brother, Dan, is now home from Iraq. He visited his dad in South Carolina and is now visiting the rest of us in Michigan. He will finally get to meet Claire (and we'll have to give his really nice camera back!).

There are new pictures loaded onto the web album (link is the the left) but the images aren't loading onto the blog. Check them out!
