The Pattersons are doing well, we have been out of the house almost daily on some task or errand. We love Claire. She keeps us entertained all day. We celebrated Mom's birthday yesterday with cards, and special dinner and cake. Aaron's special culinary creations at Megan's request were chicken pot pie with the special crust and gravy-both from scratch, and then some super yummy chocolate cake and truffles from scratch (no mixes involved). There may have been some cabernet that graced the table too.
Thanks to the Emersons for the special blankie above!

Dad likes to play motorboat to amuse Claire when she is cranky...and to prepare her for future fishing excursions!

A bit of an early Birthday dinner for Megan at Doug and Char's house gave them all the excuse they needed to be near Claire. They are pretty great grandparents, and are having lots of fun...Claire is just so somber.
