Making Cookies

One of my favorite memories is always making cookies with my mom. John and I have been making cookies since he was small and now Clara has joined in as well.

Happy 2nd Birthday Clara Ruth!

Two years ago, we welcomed Clara Ruth Newman into the world! My precious baby gave us quite a scare when we thought Daddy was going to have to deliver her. She is a joy! She is a little social girl talking to complete strangers and just jabbering away with them. She adores her big brother and tries to do whatever he is doing even though he is older. She wants to see him as soon as she wakes up in the morning. She loves to give kisses and hugs! She loves books, baby dolls, and her dog Abe! My precious girl - Happy 2nd Birthday! I love you more and more each day!! I thank God everyday for the gift you are in my life! May 15, 2008

Today

This is her "look"
Classic



Cheesy girl!
Here you can really see her left front top tooth! Thursday night she fell in the bathtub and broke her tooth. I was in complete panic mode and remembered our neighbor is a dentist. She totally took care of us by calming me down and tracking down the pediatric dentist. Well, she ended up being out of town but we went in the next morning with our neighbor for x-rays and a little filing. We go back on Thursday to see the pediatric dentist for a follow-up and more filing. We have to watch her two front teeth because the other one is loose. Please pray that everything works out and that there will be no more problems.
