Strike a Pose ~ VOGUE!

This was too cute not to post. Chris took this picture of Chloe the other day. She will be 4 weeks old tomorrow and the child has already learned how to smile/pose...VOGUE...at first sight of the camera. She is such a little super model...paparazi and all! LOL!



Chloe's first SNOW!

It finally SNOWED! We were so excited to finally see snow...it would stand to reason that if it is going to be frigid outside, that it should at least snow! It was even that much more special that it was Chloe's first snow. We took her out and showed it to her...Not that she will remember or really even saw it, but it is still special.



If only she would have been awake like the other day when her and Daddy were playing dress up. This is another one of my favorite pictures!

The Bigger Binky or the Smaller Binky...that is the question.

This just goes to show that every child is so unique and different. We made sure to purchase enough 'binkies' that were exactly like the ones used at the hospital. However, not only did Chloe not need/want a 'binky' at the hospital, but she wasn't all that crazy about them either. As you can see, the pink binkie practically consumed her entire face! LOL! Not to mention, that being the brand new parents we are, we kept putting the binky in upside down! Heaven help this poor child ~ her parents know not what they do. Thank goodness the nurse at the Pediatrician's office kindly pointed this out.



So...when in doubt, we took a trip down memory lane, back to our childhoods and gave the good ole Nuk Nuk a go. Success! She loves her Nuk Nuk! And yes...we put this one in right side up. LOL! Hopefully her new trusty Nuk will keep her pacified as it did me growing up. We are just praying she doesn't start gnawing on her bed or any other furniture in the house like Chris used to. Like I said, all children are so unique and different.

Growing like a weed!

Nap time with Daddy.

Love this picture!

Ready to hit the road with Mr. Teddy!


It's hard to believe that Chloe is a little over 2 weeks old! We took her to the doctor yesterday. She is healthy as a horse and weighs 8lbs 12 oz!

Chloe & her visitors ~ We love you guys!
