Crib Note – Clare Corson Armistead

There’s a new little miss at the home of Alison Hebenstreit Armistead and Hunter Westwood Armistead – and her parents couldn’t be more thrilled! Clare Corson Armistead will celebrate future cakedates on September 12th. She is named for her paternal great-grandmother, Clare Corson Armistead of Nashville, Tennessee. This darling baby has blue eyes and sandy blonde hair. She weighed six pounds, 15 ounces and was 21 inches long. Clare’s maternal great-grandmother is Mrs. Paul Dana Bartlett, Jr. of Our Town. Her adoring grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. James Bryant Hebenstreit of Kansas City, Missouri, and Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Corson Armistead of Nashville. Clare’s nursery has a soft safari theme. It was decorated by Jessie Hebenstreit of San Francisco, California, Clare’s maternal aunt. Welcome to the world, sweet Clare!
