Chloe's 1 Year Slideshow

Below is a link to Chloe's 1 year slideshow. Hard to believe in a few short weeks our baby will be 1. We are so thankful for Kristen's patience and amazing work as she has helped us capture these precious moments. We HIGHLY recommend Kristen's photography services. She is wonderful! Hope you all enjoy the slideshow!

Chloe's 1 Year Slideshow

Playing Catch Up!

Mimi wanted to have some Christmas pictures made of Chloe. Target has EXCELLENT backgrounds and vinette options. We just had to share a few as these are adorable. We just wish Chloe would have been a little more cooperative. But hey, she is only 11 months old. :)

Destin, Florida

We took our first official family vacation this past week. We stayed in Destin, Florida at the Hilton Resort ~ HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! It was obviously the off-season, which was extra nice. Felt kind of like we had the place to ourselves. It was nice and warm, but not too hot. Chloe got to swim for the first time...in the indoor pool of course. The water in the outside pools weren't warm enough. It was a nice getaway and Chloe did great and loved every second of it.

Chloe is scoping out the pool scene.

Our social butterfly waving at the lady swimming laps in the pool ~ she is too cute!



Chloe and Daddy floating around.

Chloe giving Daddy kisses ~ so sweet!


Chloe and Mommy enjoying a little R&R!

Nap time ~ when she starts sucking her two fingers like this, we have a limited window of time to get her in the crib for nap...Seriously!

Time for a stroll on the beach!

Chloe's first time on the beach...with her cute shades on! ADORABLE!

Play time!

Whew...what a vacation...dreaming of being home in my own big girl bed.

Happy Halloween!

This year was Chloe's 1st Halloween. It poured rain and was rather chilly, but our little punkin was nice and toasty warm in her Pumpkin Costume ~ LOVE Pottery Barn Kids...it is my weakness! Chloe loved giving out candy and watching all the kids run around the neighborhood! She had such a good time.

TOO CUTE!!!

My psychic mom powers are telling me exactly what Chloe is thinking in this picture..."Mom, do you realize you have dressed me up like a pumpkin? A real pumpkin? And you are taking me out in public looking like this? Hello...out there...Mom, are you ok?"

We snapped this pic quick...she would only leave the hat on for a few seconds...guess it was too much for her to actually smile AND wear the hat! LOL!

She loved waving to all the children who stopped by...we had about 60 trick-or-treaters...and again, it was pouring rain.

Calling it a night.

Sick Sick Blah Blah Sick!

Our poor little family has all been sick this month...mostly Chloe, but at some point it has been all of us. These are a few random posts of the few pictures we have taken on our 'better days' this month. :)

Peek-a-Boo...We see you!

Uh Oh...looks like the Kleenex theif has returned!

Our little speed crawler.

Punkin and her Daddy! Love this one!

Be affraid...be very very affraid!

RRROOOAARRR Goes the baby monster! She is a fierce stealth like creature with a roar that will leave you shakin' in your boots. So beware...she's on the prowl.

Can't wait til she finds the toilet paper!

1 box of Kleenex = $1.00...a very inquisitive child on a rainy day = PRICELESS!

Who needs all those high tech expensive toys?? Not our punkin...give her a box of Kleenex and it provides hours of entertainment...literally! Oh it's the little things in life!

Chloe's Latest Slideshow

The pictures from this slideshow were actually taken in August...shortly after Chloe turned 8 months....but this is her 6 month session so to speak...we started out 2 months behind. We cannot thank Kristen enough for her patience and talent. Turn up your volume, click on the link below and enjoy...our little girl is growing up way too fast.

Out on the town...

The Rogers family decided to venture out for dinner Friday night with our precious punkin in tow. We went to eat at a local restaurant and when the waitress asked us if we wanted a high chair we though sure...no better time than the present to give it a shot. And true to her perfect little self, Chloe rose to the occassion and sat nice and tall swinging her dangling chunky legs below as we all ate dinner....with no outbursts or tears. She had so much fun. Can't tell that we are proud doting parents can you??? LOL! We actually took this pic on our cell phone ~ so a big thank you to Uncle Brother who emailed it to us! Isn 't she a doll!

Around the house...

Chloe grabs anything she can chew on because she is cutting four (4) upper teeth all at once...yes I said 4...poor baby!

Help! Let me outta here! The last of the child containment devices she can still fit in...what happened to the good old play pins from yesteryear!?!? LOL!

Such a dainty little thing she is!

Who said you can't have play time right before bed???

Chloe's wrestling pit...seriously. She thrashes around like a fearless warrior in her travel crib (which doubles as a smaller pack-n-play), bouncing off the sides and body slamming her stuffed animals. She shows no mercy people! I pitty the poor children in her class...she can box and now wrestle...those poor boys don't stand a chance. At least Chris can rest easy! ;)

My, quite the prissy girl we are! ;)

Chloe barely has enough hair to keep this cute little hair bow in. But, luckily enough...barely enough....was just enough. We took these pics right before Kristen Overbay (photographer) came to shoot Chloe's 3rd photo session. She looks so prissy...but oh so adorable.

Feeding Frenzy!

Chloe LOVES to eat...and I do mean LOVES to eat. I can't quite figure out if it is actually the food she loves or if it's the mess she makes...either way, it's a true feeding frenzy!

Chloe's Favorite Time of Day ~ Play Time!

Chloe's new balancing act!

Check out that posture and form! Her Mama Jane would be so proud!

That's right sweet girl ~ Yeah for you!

Busted! Chloe has figured out how to dismantle her play mat!

But it's so much fun though! Ah destruction...she is her Daddy's little girl! LOL!
