Silly moments

Berkley thinks her big Sis is the coolest. She's constantly laughing, smiling, and watching her!
Bahahaha! Berkley looks like she's thinking, 'Say what?!?!"

Painting away...
... these picture are just what you asked for Gram. Enjoy :-)
"What do you think, Sis?" Love their little noses :-)
She specifically asked to have her picture taken and this was her chosen pose! Oh are we in for trouble!!
Sweet smile to showcase her new winter coat!
Our sweet smiling girls!
'What is this thing Daddy put on my head?!' Love her chubbiness!!

Happy Halloween

Chloe, our little "devilrina"
Berkley, our purple kitty
Chloe's vogue moment...
Aww!!
Berkley was so tuckered out from trick or treating that she fell asleep while we were walking around Dayton. It was so sweet!

The pumpkin walk & a family visit

My little Chad baby. Love this little squirt!!
Darling daughters
Our little sweeties! Whooo's cute?! These two ;-) Thanks Gram & Grandpa for their cute matching shirts. I asked Chloe if it was ok that they wore their shirts on the same day, and she said, "Yes! I want us to be friends in our owl shirts." Too cute!
Proud great grandparents and our silly little babes.
Chloe lounging with "Grandma great Grandma" and "Grandpa" on the couch with her lovely dress up shoes!
Chloe standing in as Ariel at the pumpkin walk-- hilarious! I love how she's even looking over her shoulder :-)
Need I say more than Yoda?!
Hahaha!
Under all these stickers is Mom. When Chloe saw this picture she said, "Look Mommy, I put stickers all over your face." Apparently we look alike when my mom has stickers on her face- too funny!
"Fancy" shoes on her feet weren't enough. Her hands needed them, too!

Chloe-ism #14, 15, and an oldie but goodie

C 14:

I was in the bathroom when I heard this:
Chloe: Super Readers, I NEED the letter 's!'


C 15:

At Westside's last home football game...
Chloe, seeing the line men: Why are they holding lollipops?


Oldie, but goodie:

Chloe has the book Fifteen Animals by Sandra Boynton. All of the animals have the name "Bob." We were helping Chloe say a prayer when this was so hilariously uttered:

Me, prompting: ... in the name of
Chloe: Bob, Amen!

This Chloe-ism went on for weeks. Thankfully, she's learned from her hilarious mistake! It was so cute to hear, though :-)

Last week's happenings...

Chloe fell asleep in her swing the other day... classic!
Chloe & Taya putting things in the shopping cart!

Chloe is donning an ASSORTMENT of clothing items that belong to her, Berkley, and Taya. Believe it or not, the shirt is a 9 month top we have for Berk. The "bermudas" are actually Berkley's leggings, and the sandal on the right is Taya's. Hilarous little fashionista!
She is SUCH a slobbery baby
Aww! Love those beautiful blues :-)
Chloe & Berk playing together on the floor with Chloe's blocks. What silly girls we have :-)
What a pretty, pretty face!
My headband girls
Chloe's looks a little messy because she insisted on putting it on herself. Go figure!!
Berkley is such a fun little babe (with the exception of being gassy and, therefore, sleeping VERY crappy at night for the last 2 months). Check out her onesie, Dad. See, they do make shirts about grandpas ;-)
Chloe wanted a ponytail, two headbands, and a clip all in her hair the other day! It turned out pretty cute. Love her wrinkled up nose :-)

Chloe-ism #12 & 13

Chloe-ism 12:

On our way home from Preston the other night, Chad was explaining to Chloe where he and Kenny had gone up in the mountains to look for deer...

Chad, pointing: See that cloud on top of that mountain over there?
Chloe: Uh huh.
Chad: That's where I was this morning with Kenny looking for deer.
Chloe, with a gasp: Were you flying?!



Chloe-ism 13:

Chad got home from work when Chloe blessed us with this one ;-)

Chad: Hi Sis.
Chloe: Do you have boobs, Daddy?

Carrots!

Berk thought the carrots (that I still believe smell exactly like tomatoes) were YUMMO!
Here she is eagerly awaiting her next bite! She got so much all over her face because she kept getting so excited to eat them that she'd go to close her mouth and turn her head with a happy face- hilarious!


Silly sisters

Popcorn loving princess!!
I laid Berkley down on the couch next to Chloe while I went to the bathroom. I came back to find them "lounging" together


An afternoon at "Daddy's park"

While playing at the park, Chloe discovered the water spout behind the water fountain and ended up SOAKING wet! It was funny & cute! Love this color on her- stunning!!

Cousin Austin, Harley, & Grace at the drinking fountain
Chloe and Halle-- these two are really becoming great friends!!
My sweetie
More than cousins... friends :-)

A Chloe & some BIG Berkleys

Despite her ability to push EVERY button I have and go from a sweet angel to a complete terror in a blink of an eye, I LOVE this little girl with all my heart! And that smile can melt it, too. Today she said a couple of really cute things to me that I'll share here. 1) "Are you Mommy Taylor, Mommy?" and 2) "I want to be a Mommy some day just like you!"
Hypnotized by the camera

Don't you just want to kiss those chunky little, er big, cheeks?!?
I love her little "Taylor" ears-- they stick out just a little bit (though some of the Taylors' ears stick out pretty big) and it's so stinkin' cute!!
Today we took Berk in for her 4-month well visit. She is off the charts all the way around!! She weighs in at 16lbs 12oz and is 26 1/4 inches long! No wonder my arms have been getting tired holding her all the time :-)

Darling Daughters

BIG bubbles!
What a darling smile :-)
Oh my, Berk! What a Chad-look-alike!
Chloe telling me NOT to take her picture!
So incredibly sweet!
