Chloie is getting so big, so fast!

 I got a video camera for mothers day so here are two of the videos I have...

Chloie is WAY to much like her daddy. She is now kicking things with her left foot. (Ben is a lefty) She reaches for things every now and then but she would rather kick things apparently.

Chloie is a little copy-cat. 

One word: MOM

With mother's day coming up I've been thinking about everything that has happened since last mothers day.

 TWO of My sister-in-laws became mothers, as did one of my cousins, and a THREE of my friends.

And so did I.

SO many babies all in one year!

And becoming a mom has made me appreciate my own mom so much more.

My mom carried me for nine months, went through the unimaginable pain of a 36 hour labor with no medication just to bring me into this world. She fed me and changed me, bathed me and clothed me. She taught me to walk and talk. Helped me learn my ABC's and 123's. She took me to school, to dance, band practice and piano lessons. Supported me through Karate, Gymnastics, Softball, Soccer and all the other things I just had to try. She held me when I cried, and called me out on my lies. She taught me the importance of family and of being unconditionally accepting and loving of my family. She made me the person I am today. My only hope is that I can be the same kind of mom to Chloie as my mom was to me.

I love you mom!

Happy Mothers Day!

Three months old!

Chloie is such a fun baby! She is so wiggly and smiley! She giggles and coos a lot more now.
Her new favorite things to do are:
- Suck her thumb (she use to love her binki but now she takes the binki out and holds it in one hand and sucks her thumb)
- Standing up! She loves to hold on to my fingers and stand up all by her self.
- Watching colorful movies with lots of music. (like fantasia and Tangled)
- Her new best friend is her WHO doll, its pink and orange and VERY fuzzy, She wraps one arm around its neck and falls asleep sucking her thumb.

Chloie has gotten so big. She is recognizing people like her mom and dad (everytime I get ready for work she gets the pouty lip going and the tears, I think she misses me when I leave). She recognizes her Grandma's and Grandpa's. She LOVES her Aunts (Bay and Aubree). and She gets so excited when she see's Paisley and our puppy Allie.
