Baby Emma!

On Sunday, the family made a trip down to Annapolis to celebrate baby Emma's Baptism. Claire was so happy she was going to see her. So much so that she did not sleep on the way there(which we were hoping she would). "No Mommy, me no sleep, me see baby Emma!"

She spent most of the day either talking about, to or smiling at Emma!

Claire LOVED holding her "tiny, tiny, baby Emma"
