Chloe {11 months}

Sometimes I feel like this year just blew right by as per all those cliches. And then other times, I say to myself, “Nope. It definitely feels like I’ve had two kids for a whole year.” Its been a lotta work but I’ll save my letter de triumph for next week when she turns one. So…New tricks: WALKING.

I know I’ve mentioned bath time craziness before but I find myself always snapping pics when these two soaking. Its hard to beat the cuteness factor when it comes to babies in a bathtub.

8 teeth

Chloe has 8 teeth. I’m sure I’ve made mention of this, but seriously. 8! I almost forgive her for the 6 months of teething hell she put us through. She could probably eat corn on the cob & ribs, for christ’s sake!  That image makes me laugh.  To compare, Alex had 2 1/2 teeth at her age.  And man does… Read more →
