Cell Phone Dump

Ok, fasten your seat belts for this post.   This one is random and scattered.  There will be a ton of pictures and they will probably be completely out of order.  I am trying to get caught up without dragging this out for an eternity.  These pictures were too cute to pass up, but so random they didn't really need their own post so here goes!

 First cold day.  Trying out her new coat, hat and gloves.

 I left her alone to color for a minute and she decided to color her hands and face instead.  

 Building blocks with Daddy and her Kitty.  They love building blocks together.

 Kitty going to the playground with us.  Poor Kitty isn't going to be white for long!

 One of our visits to Mimi and Pawpaw's house she discovered a big patch of "Tickle Grass"

 She loved running in it and it made for some sweet pictures.

 This was the winter of sickness for us.  At least one of us, but most of the time all of were sick for almost the whole winter.  It was brutal.  One batch of sickness Chloe wanted all of her animals on the couch with her while she watched tv.  Daddy is always able to get a smile out of her when she isn't feeling well. 

 A quick family photo one trip to Amarillo.  Why so serious, Chloe?

 One of many trips to the pediatrician this winter.  Chloe loves to clean and apparently thought the patient room needed a good cleaning with her Clorox wipe.

 Coloring on herself again.  A common theme this last fall/winter.

 Cleaning again

 This girl is in love with stuffed animals.  She had quite a collection that she was talking to one day while were out shopping.  She has to stop and love on all the stuffed animals in the store. 

 We had to use a special heated hose this winter for our water.  One of the joys of camping in the winter.  Chloe watched daddy closely and when he was busy elsewhere she decided to help out a little.

 Cheese!

Whew!  I told you that was going to be a crazy post!  Glad you stuck around until the end!

First Haircut

Around November 29th Chloe finally had her first haircut.  We took her to a cute little shop that does haircuts for kids.  She got to sit in a little car and watch some tv while they cut it.  She did very good and had a blast at the same time.  I wasn't super happy with the way it turned out, but considering I had no idea what I wanted I can't complain.  The good news is she seems to still have her curls! Mama is very happy about that!  We got a picture and certificate along with a little baggie of some of her hair since it was her first hair cut.  

2 Years Old

Chloe turned 2 in November despite all my pleading that she stay 1.  The weather was perfect, and her Mimi and Pawpaw came to help us celebrate.  We celebrated it all weekend.  We went to the pumpkin patch and she had a blast there doing all the fun things they had.  Her favorite were the slides.  She couldn't get enough!

Halloween

We had Mother's Day Out on Halloween this year so all the kids got to dress up for class.  I found this little lady bug costume for Chloe and I thought she made the cutest little lady bug ever.  The pictures aren't great because she wasn't in the mood to cooperate that early in the morning.  She had a little party in her classroom and got all kinds of goodies.  

That night we went to a fall festival at one of the churches in town.  It was a lot of fun, but we didn't get to stay too late because she didn't have a nap that day was getting really tired and fussy.

It was a busy but fun day!

 Most adorable lady bug ever!!
