Sitting up!

Chloe is growing so quickly, it just seems like yesturday she was a newborn! She will be 6 months on the 15th of June! She is really into sitting up one her own and has being doing really well so far. She is also rolling like crazy around the room! The other day I put her down on her blanket with a bunch of toys only to come find her from the shoulders down with her body under the couch. She wasn't crying or anything, just making her regular squeely noises letting me know somethings up!

Solids!

Chloe is well on her way to loving Cereal and Baby food! She loves mostly the yellow and orange veges just like her brother and pulls the greatest face when I give her fruit. I think they are a little too tart for her!


I am already done washing bibs, naked is the way to go!

Tank the protector!

Today Chloe was playing on a blanket on the floor next to her buddy Tank. As you can see from the picture Tank was thrilled to be alive!! He is very protective of Chloe and Ethan and always wants to be where they are!

Mothers Day cont.

My Mothers Day surprises just kept coming this year! Something about double the amount of children double the amount of gifts!!(just kidding!!) Ethan gave me an adorable wind chime which he was thrilled to listen for when I put it up! There hasn't been a breeze since!! The nursery at church helped Ethan make this adorable picture frame with a picture of him and I, one of him, a hand print and a sweet poem. Peter got me some great books and today the beautiful bouquet of red roses started to bloom.

Mothers day preparation!

Today Peter and the kids went on their Mothers day shopping excursion! I managed to snap this picture when they got home. Looking very devious as you can see, I am intrigued to see what Daddy surprises me with this year. I already received a beautiful bouquet of red roses!

Blowing bubbles!

Chloe's favorite thing to do is blow bubbles! She works so hard at it and sometimes get really into it so she ends up with drool all over! Only a baby can look so cute doing this!!

Once fence up, one to go and a retaining wall!

So last week Peter spent his two days off putting up a new fence around the pool. The old fence had seen better days Luckily he we enlisted the help of our neighbor, Bob, and we hired some extra help! The cedar fence looks great, however all the plants and grass close to the fence got totally destroyed so now I have to re-landscape the pool area and it rained so alot of mud got tracked around on the patio so I have to get cleaning with the pressure washer! I will post some more pics when everything is done!



The old fence is pulled down and new posts are set.


New fence starts to go up. You can see what the old fence looked like from the fence in the back round. That fence will eventually come down and a new metal fence is going up and incorporating the side yard so Ethan has room to play considering the pool takes up a large portion of our yard.


The final product. A beautiful new cedar fence! The yard smells great! Driving Tank insane as the scent is so strong!

My Sweet angel!

Chloe is already approaching 5 months and is still just the sweetest baby! She has developed a mommy only policy at times!

As you can see Ethan is also a good napper! He had been up all day playing real hard, went to the Park, came home and crashed on the living room floor listening to his storytelling CD!

Not even 3 years olds like their privacy invaded!!

Just couldn't resist posting this picture!

3 Already!

Ethan and Peter both celebrated their birthdays this week! Ethan got lots of great gifts and was really excited to blow out his birthday candles on his much awaited ice-cream cake!
