Meeting New Friends

Last weekend, we went to Houston and hung out with my long time friend Denise and her daughter, Abigail. It was the first time I met Abigail. She was so precious. It made me miss when Chloe was three months old. It was great seeing Denise. Without plagiarizing her blog, it was funny to see how times have changed. We have definitely moved into our adult lives. We were concerned about feeding, strollers, and the latest baby gear. That is a far cry from our days as roommates! I look forward to the days when we have play dates and slumber parties with the girls!

4 Generations

When we went to New Mexico for Christmas, my mom, grandmother, Chloe and I took a generation photo. I turned out cute, especially because Chloe was in desperate need of her afternoon nap!

8 months

Today, Chloe-Jean is 8 months. Where has time gone? Here are some of the milestones that we have reached:

*She is finally wearing Size 2 diapers!
*She pulls up on everything!
*She took 3 steps towards me, without holding on to anything...We will have a walker soon.
*She dances to music.
*She mimics noises and sounds, but no true words....YET!
*She plays Peek-A-Boo.
*She has started to wave.
*She is loves blueberries...Therefore, we go through TONS of stain remover.
*She has started eating finger foods.
*She weighs 16lbs 8oz.

Happy New Year!

Well, I can't believe that it has taken me this long to post, but between Texas and New Mexico, there was hardly any time. Christmas was WONDERFUL. Chloe-Jean had great fun unwrapping gifts and then eating the paper. She got so many great gifts from all of her cousins, aunts, and uncles. It was neat starting our own traditions in our home. John and I each took our own family traditions and made our own. Chloe sat through the Christmas Story and really looked as though she was listening. Chloe also saw her first snow....and Grandpa was ready to strap on skis! It was a great break...but time to get back to work.

Chloe LOVED all of the paper that she got to rip open at our house. She had fun opening up her gifts.












Chloe was all dressed up for Christmas Dinner at Grandma Jean's house....She LOVED her dinner....can't you tell?


Seeing snow for the first time at SIpapu Ski Resort. This is where Grandpa is going to teach her how to ski!



Chloe is on her way to walking. She pulls up on everything. Now, she knows the dogs in the backyard. She visits them through the window all the time. When they bark, she crawls to the window, pulls up, and wants to know what is happening!
