Claire Visits A Piece O' Cake!

Some of you may or may not know that my best friend from high school, Emily, spent quite a bit of time working at the bakery during her pregnancy.  Emily broke her leg and came home to East Lansing from Boston during that time.  She was, of course, not very mobile.  Emily was getting bored so we put her to work!  It was wonderful spending so much time with her.  She is my first close friend to have a baby, so spending time with her during her pregnancy was a lot of fun for me!

Emily moved back to Boston and Claire was born on February 10, 2010.  One day in March Emily and Claire paid me a surprise visit!  I was so happy to see Claire and hold her!  And of course I was happy to see Emily, too!  We all think that Claire recognized the smells and sounds of the bakery!  After-all, she did spend quite a bit of time here!  :-)

Sweet Baby!

I cannot wait to see how Claire has changed when she comes for another visit at the end of May!
