Wednesday at the Children's Museum

Chloe got so frustrated that she started to scream! She is too much sometimes:)

This carpet is super slippery, challenges the babies to crawl up it. Here are Roman and Chloe trying their hardest and Madison is thinking about joining them.

Madison joined her at the table:)

Chloe climbed up and stood on top of the barrel stool! I sat her back down, she is such a daredevil.

Chloe found a stethoscope, she didn't know how to use it correctly but she certainly had fun playing with it.

Chloe loved to climb up onto things. She climbed up and down the dock for a long while.

Today we went to the Children's Museum with all our friends. Chloe had a lot of fun but her energy ran short and she needed a nap, or at least a cat nap;)

Monday and Tuesday

This past week or so, Chloe has been trying out some new foods and eating a little bit more. She has been eating her lil crunchies dipped in guacamole, cake, hummus, celery, raisins, goldfish crackers, smoothies, orange julius and popcorn:)

Tuesday was an errands and chores day, not too much fun but Chloe was such a good girl riding in the truck and going in and out of her car seat. Chloe has gotten so good at running that she has added a little skip/hop to it, almost a little jig:) She still loves to dance, read and watch Elmo too.

Monday Chloe and I headed out to Barnes and Noble story time. It was fun to see our friends for a while but Chloe did not want to sit and listen to the stories, she was running wild, picking up all stuffed animals she could get her hands on and books here and there. But afterwards we did enjoy shopping for some books and a dvd with her birthday gift card!

Weekend

Chloe got a new phone today. She likes to pull it more that talk on it.

Chloe is pointing to her toes!

Shoes make great toys:)

Later Saturday evening we went to our friend Sarah's 30th b-day party. We had a fun time catching up with some old friends. After the party Chloe needed to chill out and play at home before going to bed.

Chloe and Zoe B are having a good time playing with all the toys!

Chloe and Harper are ready to play.

Saturday afternoon we went to Zoe D's 1st Birthday party! Here is the birthday girl eating some of her cake:) Zoe was born 2 days after Chloe at the same hospital. The day we were leaving the hospital, they were just coming in!

Fall Friday

The weather has been amazing, mid 70's these past two days. We did strollercise yesterday at Wash Park and then played at the playground for hours. We were both worn out after all of that! Today we hung out with Amy and Henry. We all walked around Cheesman then played at the play ground. Chloe loves walking up and down the little ledge at the playground. She tries really hard stepping down but it's still a little scary for both of us. She also took off running down a hill! She was running so fast, cute as can be and eventually the speed caught up with her but she got back up and kept going. Chloe is a tough, little daredevil.

Wednesday

Tonight we celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary! We went out to dinner at Watercourse, my fave and will soon enjoy our traditional apple pie for dessert:)

Chloe still enjoys swinging.

Today we enjoyed a beautiful day in the park with 17 parents and babies! We played at the playground, took a lap around the park and picnicked. But by the looks of things you can probably tell that Chloe isn't much of a picnicker:)

Monday and Tuesday

Eli and Chloe playing with the blocks. Eli was hosting today:) We had a great time!

Madison and Chloe playing with the pushing cart.

Tuesday we headed out to Nguyen's home for a play date.

Monday Chloe had her 1 year Dr's appointment. She weights 20 lbs 11oz and is 29 inches tall! She had 4 vaccinations and we were there for an hour and a half, way too much for both of us. So I forgot all the papers on the table and therefore I don't know the %'s this time.

Chloe's 1st Birthday!!!!!!!!

We had a great day celebrating Chloe's 1st birthday and Halloween as a family and with friends!

Julie made a pumpkin pie to celebrate Chloe's b-day and we all sang to her.

Chloe and Fin playing with the barn.

Back to the house to play for a while.

Mama, Chloe, Julie and Zoe after trick or treating.

Chloe loves getting shoulder rides from dada.

Marnie was Dorthy and Dalila was a ladybug.

Fin was a dinosaur.

Zoe B. was a bee:)

After a quick nap we headed to Julie, Josh and Zoe's home to play and then go trick or treating at the festival down the road. Zoe was Dr. Q T Patootie :)

Family pic at the zoo, then our battery died.

The bear is really relaxing in the sun! It was a beautiful day outside.

Getting some treats!

Getting ready to trick or treat at the zoo.

Checking out all the people at the zoo, it was crowded!

Getting ready to go to Boo at the Zoo. Chloe prefers her hanger to her wand.

The box is really fun!

Cool! How does it work?

Look what I got dada!

She could rip through the tissue paper with no problem!

On her birthday morning, Chloe and dada were playing a game of peek-a-boo behind the lion!

Checking out who's calling her.

Calling her peeps;)

And a couple new outfits to add to her wardrobe:)

A new cell phone, she likes the noises on this one.

Elmo in a box, so fun!

Chloe is opening presents that Grammy and Grandpa S sent. She really liked the Elmo card:)
