Easter and Clara is One Month Old!

Clara had her first bottle at 4 weeks. She was a champ and didn't have any problems drinking from the bottle with Dad.

I meant to take a picture like this right after Clara got home from the hospital but it didn't happen. We used a bunny since she was one month old right at Easter. Hopefully I'll remember to take a picture with Mr. Bunny every month so we can watch Clara grow! At first she enjoyed checking out Mr. Bunny...

...but after a few pictures she'd had enough!

Clara's first picture with the Easter Bunny! She wasn't too sure about those teeth. Don't you love her beautiful little dress! It was me and my sister's dress when we were babies. Clara had it on for about 5 minutes before she spit up all over it, which is the norm around here. Grandma King got her the matching tights.

Easter was followed by Me, Brian and Catherine getting a terrible virus. Mom came to Raleigh and looked after Clara while we were sick. That was followed by me getting a plugged milk duct because I got dehydrated, then Clara got the virus. Needless to say it hasn't been a very good week at the Henderson household. Everybody seems to be on the mend today at least. 

Thanksgiving

We started vacation off right with a fantastic Thanksgiving meals. Brian made a homemade pumpkin pie for dessert which was just as delicious as it looks! Traditionally the Willis clan eats chocolate for dessert and there usually isn't a pumpkin pie which Brian has been disturbed by the last few years so this year he made his own! He was even sweet enough to make a gluten free crust so I could have some too. 

We also did some off-roading since Papa just bought an awesome 4-wheeler. No-one would go more than about 5 miles an hour with the pregnant woman on there but it was still fun. Here's a picture of mom and dad on it.

The guys and my sister Catherine got in a little target practice in an old sand pit.

Papa started us off by polishing off a few Mountain Dew cans.

I'm pretty sure dad did some shooting too but I didn't get a picture of him. I just got to take pictures this year, no shooting for me but next year I won't be 6 months pregnant so watch out!
