July.

chlover

Baby Chloe grew so much this past month. I can hardly justify calling her 'baby' chloe anymore, but it seems that this nickname has stuck and she will maybe forever be our "baby chloe." She has Incorporated new words/sounds in her vocabulary...but still "BAH" is her favorite. I believe she is entering the time when discipline might have to be introduced. That is not my favorite. I will admit that she is SPOILED but seriously, how can you NOT spoil a child you worked so hard for? I recall bringing her home, the meds she was on, the care she took, the month(s) of leaving the house for only doctors appointments...and to think that I would ever have to look her in the eye as she's throwing chewed up pieces of syrupy pancake on the floor and say in a stern voice "NO NO CHLOE." That day is here. She started doing this really squinty look at me when I tell her "NO." She furrows her brow and gives me this "how-dare-you-hurt-my-feelings" look. Although it is funny, it is still hard for me to be stern with her. I may be creating a monster...

I'm thinking this pic will be used as blackmail in the future...(yes, that's spit)
july 4th
July 4th was good...Aunt Katie came down and we went to Grandpa's house for a BBQ. Chloe actually kissed Grandpa on the mouth...she's come a LONG way since her blessing in September when she would look at Gramps and scream (and scream, and scream). Hface and Maya went to Christopher Creek w/ Nana, Deeds and Jake for a family fun day w/ uncle Dave and Co. They had a great time.

I love this picture. Hface is the best big sister. ever.

Sweet baby girl. She's getting very animated. Loving to dance, especially. I can't believe how much she's grown over the past few months. Time is flying by...

Chloe is adorable! How could Kyler not fall in love with her? She looks so grown up! I'm so glad that things have turned out well for her, she's earned it! Did I mention how absolutely cute she is!? Yes unfortunately we are in the same situation with Kyler...we get a frown and instant tears when we tell him "no". How did our children become so spoiled? I know it had nothing to do with us ;)
