last weekend...

This past weekend we had pretty bad weather. It rained, and rained all weekend. Saturday we were able to take Chloe to the park for a few minutes. After we decided it was a little chilly, we got into the car and it immediately started raining so we left just in time. The rest of the weekend we stayed in. Chloe still had fun. Jim built her a fort in the living room, put on a puppet show, and we played hide and go seek. Not too many places to hide in our apartment but it was still fun. It was funny to see Chloe trying to find her daddy. She would look in places he would never fit...like the washing machine and dryer!


Inside the Fort daddy built her.It lasted a total of 3minutes before she tore it down.

I have to say I'm getting better at taking out my camera. It's so important to capture your memories.

She can wink...


I didn't know she could do this until Jim took this picture! This girl is such a handful but, I love her so much! There is never a dull moment with her! I can't believe she will be 3yrs. old next month. Too bad Jim will miss her birthday. He will training in California for a whole month. He'll just have to make sure she gets everything on her wish list! :) So far she wants a barbie jeep, dinosaurs, and flash cards. Every time when we leave the house she says "are we going to wal-mart?"
"maybe we'll buy a barbie truck!" Her great grandparents will be here next week. Maybe they'll give in!

Easter Party!

This is way late but, my Internet has been down! Easter weekend Jim's co-worker has an Easter Party. I forgot my camera but, luckily the hostess took lots of pictures. Chloe had so much fun. She got to do another egg hunt and play in a Blue's Clue's bounce house. She loved the Bounce house I may have to rent one for her birthday this year!

Chloe posing in her dress. I had to change her clothes for the egg hunt and before she went into the bounce house. It was kinda chilly, or should I say windy. It was 70 degrees that day but, with the wind it felt like 50 degrees.



I can dress myself...


Every morning when Chloe wakes up she comes into our room and climbs into bed with me. This morning she came into my room with only her underwear on. I told her to go put Clothse on and this is what she came up with. I just had to get up and take a picture.

Last night...

I went to check on Chloe before I went to sleep and this is how I found her. Completely out of her covers and backwards! I had to take a picture.

Practice round

Last Saturday we took Chloe to an Easter egg hunt at a local park. It was a really small egg hunt. There is going to be a huge one next Saturday with over 5,000 eggs hidden so I thought we could take her to the little one for a little practice round. She had a lot of fun and got lots of eggs. As usual the battery to my camera was low and I only got one picture before my camera died! And she's not even looking at the camera!
And notice the wind blowing Chloe's hair. It wasn't just one windy day, it's ALWAYS windy here. It was 70 degrees that day and we had 10-20mph wind gusts. I feel like I live in Chicago. They should call this place the windy city.

Nap times are back and here to stay...

Ever since Jim finished AIT and we moved to Kansas, Chloe quit taking her afternoon naps. Everything was so hectic and her schedule was different everyday. Now that we are settled and things are back to normal I started a new routine for her and nap time is back. I started putting nap time back in about a week ago and for the first day she didn't even sleep she just layed in her bed for an hour. I thought I was doomed and that maybe she had outgrown nap time but, the next day she actually went to sleep. So I'm glad to say I have an hour of absolute peace and quiet everyday.
And yes...my child sleeps with that many stuffed animals. She has to have them placed all around her head. She loves, loves her animals and has a name for all of them. I swear the number of stuffed animals she sleeps with multiplies every week.
