Sunday Football

 Chloe was excited to cheer on the Bears to a victory!
 We took a bike ride during half time:)
She's an old pro now and still loves to ride her bike!
Tonight Chloe got the finishing touches to her fave new Ariel dress up dress, shoes and the crown!  Now her Halloween costume is complete and a month early at that!

Friends, Friends and More Friends!

 Dressing up with Kaylee from our play date last week:)
 Chloe and Hannah singing, dancing and of course dressing up:)
 After school on Thursday, she had a great day and it was gorgeous out!
 Playing outside with her fairy on the trampoline.
 Today at the park with Theresa, Fin and Elle.  Chloe just loved baby Elle and wants to play with her all the time.
 She had no fear climbing up and going down this steep, tall slide, it made me nervous though.
 Chloe and Fin doing the teeter totter on a wonderful afternoon at the park.
 Playing pretend, I was served ice cream out of a sandal:)
Chloe and Fin running the bases at the park , they did this at least 5 times!  We were so happy to spend so much time with the Peoples!  We are sad to see you return to Denver but will just have to look forward to seeing you all again in the spring.

Fall brings the start of some good times!

 Monday we went to Uncle Rich's and Aunt Andrea's for supper and outdoor fire pit fun.  Chloe found Andrea's boots and was excited to be a cowgirl:)
 Chloe insisted on wrapping up in the most comfortable blanket ever for camping:)
 Tuesday was the start of Story Time again!  Chloe was so excited to see Ms Kelly again.  She really had a great time at story time, singing, counting, listening, it was fun to see.
 Tuesday evening we were so happy to have Theresa, Fin and Elle come over again.  Here are the girls playing together:)
 Theresa gave me the great idea to use a scarf for a baby wrap.  Chloe wore her baby all night long, she was such a good mommy.
 She looks a little exhausted after taking care of her baby;)
 Chloe and Fin are napping with their babies:)
 Elle better hurry up and join them!
 Trying to get a classic Chloe and Fin picture was a little more difficult this time around, oh well, they are still very cute!
 Chloe and Fin drinking their "iced coffee" and it looks like Elle is crashing from hers already;)
 She is just so cute and so good!
 They played horses and coffee shop for a good portion of the evening.
 Today Chloe was so excited for her 1st day of 3yo Preschool.  She was ready and waiting:)
 Smiling and ready to go!
"On second thought I think I want my mommy to stay with me".  Chloe  had a rough time saying good bye this morning.  When I picked her up she ran to me and said that school was so fun!  She made new friends and made some art work that she wanted on the fridge right away.  We were talking about her friends and she was talking about the girls, I asked if she made friends with any boys and she said "No, I just talked to them" :).

So busy with fun this past week!

 My first blue berry pie that I have ever baked and it was delicious.  Maybe a C on presentation but an A for taste:)
 Last week our wonderful friends from Denver came to visit, Theresa, Fin and we finally got to meet baby Elle.  Their friends Katie and her baby Evelyn came over to play as well.  It was so much fun to see them and hang out all day with them!  And of course Chloe loved the baby girls so much!
 Fin and Chloe playing in the pool.  They got along so well and had so much fun playing outside and inside with each other all afternoon long.
 Chloe wanted to hold baby Elle all day long:)
 Chloe playing under the tent.  The next day she fell asleep and took a nap in the fort.
 Saturday we had a great time tailgating with Uncle Rich and Aunt Andrea.
 Caden and Chloe playing football:)
 Saturday evening we had our friends, the Petersens, over and the girls played all night.  Here  is Chloe in her reading glasses reading her books.
 Sunday Gramma Smith came to visit.  She brought with her a doll for Chloe that she played with all afternoon long.
 Chloe is posing with the new Hawkeye and Cyclone flag.  Jason hung his Cyclone flag up and we had to "fix" it ;)
 Moved the trampoline outside on this gorgeous day!
 Huggies with Gramma Smith
Saturday morning Daddy and Chloe went to Home Depot for the kids workshop and Chloe got to build a white board, so cool!

Thanks to everyone for your continued support, phone calls, and messages.  We are getting through this and appreciate all of your love!
