Oh Baby!

Chloe's First Frosty Treat experience... surely not the last






Well people, it had been a bit crazy here to say the least. Between working, eating and sleeping and cleaning up messes it doesn't leave much time to blog. But here are a few of my favorite pics of the last few weeks. I think they speak for themselves. Among the growing list of new things Chloe is learning are: where her bum and pee pee are, up and down, saying No No No! (her and us), and is we say "Mommy & Daddy Love...." she points to her self and says "Me,Me, Me!"....Life is Good.

Baby! What Baby... I don't see a baby!

Looking at these pictures and seeing our friends baby that is only a few weeks old, I realized that my baby is no longer a baby. She is such a little girl now. She is her own person who has strong opinions and doesn't mind sharing them. She enjoys long walks, dancing and anyone with a good sense of humor.

In the last year she has grown 10 inches and has almost tripled her height. I'm glad that doesn't happen every year. The girl would be massive.

Nice Cat!

Chloe said her first two word combo this morning. "Nice Cat!". Smegal and Precious are truly her pals. They let her beet them up all the time. She generally pets them and gives them hugs but sometimes she can be a bit ruff.

Hodg-Podg

The Dollar Store is a great place to shop. Chloe loves her snazzy purse and matching earrings and necklace. Daddy however thought she looked like a little old lady.

Here is Miss Chloe enjoying her new Dora Chair.
She actually sits in it and uses it to climb the ottoman.

I know I must have a hundred pictures of her sleeping... but she is just to cute.

Yum Yum Thanks for the Grub!

This was a VERY big week for food with Chloe. She had milk for the first time, and she is doing great with it. She had food ordered at a restaurant, and she had ice cream. We went to East side marios on Saturday night and she had the plain chicken with some bread and milk. And she fed herself for the most part. She did a great job. On the way home we stopped at Dairy Queen and for her a strawberry Sunday. She ate a few spoon fulls and then figured out that it was more fun to play in then to eat. Immediately following she ice cream she had a bath. Grampy will be glad to know that the trips to dairy queen with Chloe can now begin!

Visitors from Away

Nanny Clowater, Jody & Troy came to see us last weekend. We were so busy having fun I didn't get as many pictures as I should have. All and all I think everyone had a good time. We shopped, ate, Jody was sick... My cooking must have set her off, and we went to church. Jason and Troy were able to go shopping to there favorite locations: Home Depo, Future Shop, Sobers.. And so on. While we were able to go and do what we wanted. Shop at Old Navy and Walmart. And Nanny go to go to her favorite store, Island Furriers.

Grampy's Birthday

For Grampy's birthday we went out to eat and then back to our place for cake. Chloe loved the cake. We had to hold her back from smushing it.

Seems like yesterday....

Fathers Day 2004
Here is when we found out we had a baby on the way. Jason seems very confident. I on the other hand ... not so much.

I personally love the drugged look in my eyes.

Just 3 days old

February 27, 2006
365 days old. Her first, our best.

Cake Time

This was taken, almost to the minute, a year after she was born. She did seem to enjoy the apple cinnamon cake I made her. Just not in this picture. Mom and Jason are holding down her hands so she doesn't burn herself on the candle.

If anything it was fun for her to make a mess.

Party Girl

On Sunday we had a party for Chloe's first Birthday. She had a great time once she got used to a bunch of people in her space. She danced, ate, opened a lot of great gifts, and danced some more. She would not nap and once everyone left and I was feeding her here supper she fell asleep mid bight. She has fallen a sleep in her high-chair before but just never while actually eating.

Jack Frost Festival

Chloe & Pooh Bear

Chloe & Dora


The weekend of the jack Frost Festival it was VERY cold. We weren't able to do a lot of the stuff I hopes we could. The highlight for Chloe was meeting two of her favorite characters.

The Birthday Party Girl

Last Saturday Chloe and I went to two Birthdays Parties. One for a 4 year old girl and one for a her 70 year old Great Grampy. She had a great time at Holly's party with all the other kids. It was her first official friends birthday party. All other parties had adults only.

Here is Chloe with her second cousins Robin and Jennifer.
And here is her Great Grampy Beat and his Birthday cake.

And this is one of my new favorite pics of Chloe and Jason.
They were just cuddling and watching TV.

Snow Day

This was one of the first days this winter that we could take her out to play in the snow. It always seemed that it would melt to fast for us to go and play or it was just to cold. Today was just right. This was taken in our back yard.

These images have not been altered in anyway!
(except red-eye reduction)

She started doing this after Christmas and I was never able to get a picture of it because I was the one behind her to make sure she didn't fall. Jason is out of frame beside her in case of any accidents. This girl has no fear! Tonight was the first time that she stood up without holding the handles. We have to keep a close eye on this little monkey.
