Celebrating Clara Ann Frank

My niece Clara (or Clare-bear as we refer to her in our house) was born last week (Dec 27) and tonight I got to talk to my sister for the second time. We were in Malaysia when she was born and then traveling back to Chiang Mai where we are moving into our new house (it's looking good so far but we've still got a lot to do), so I was feeling out of touch.

Anyway, we just skyped for a long while and Lucy was at school so it was just Elizabeth and Clara and it was almost like being there. I love Skype for letting me see all the little newborn stuff- she was nursing and sleeping and spitting up and snuggling and she cried for about 2 seconds and then immediately fell back asleep- so funny! Anyway, the other good thing about Skype is that you can take snapshots so tomorrow I'm going to show them to Sam and tell him all about what Clara was doing. Here are a few pics and more are on my sister's blog.
