Claire is eating all kinds of new things! Carrots, peas, prunes, squash and sweet potatoes. She took her time getting started but, so far she hasn't met a food she doesn't like!

I (Megan) met up with good friends for a Drake Univ. Reunion in Des Moines, Iowa. We had a great time visiting the old hangouts. Claire and Aaron stayed with Grandma and Grandpa and I got two whole nights of uninterrupted sleep!

It was a wonderful first Mother's Day. We spent it with my parents at the "Shepard's Harvest Festival". It was a day of all things yarn related- sheep, llamas, alpacas, goats rabbits, and lots of yarn. It filled our knitting fix. Here are some of the wooly friends we met.

She thinks he's pretty neat!
