She's 6 weeks old!

OK...so I am a bit behind on my blogging. :) These were taken last Tuesday...when Chloe turned 6 weeks. She is actually 7 weeks old today (2-10-09).

Random Pics

These pictures were also taken last week. It appears we are going to have quite the student on our hands! Chloe was stone cold asleep with her hand in the air..."Teacher, Teacher...call on me!"

This just goes to show you how long she is. We are thinking basketball, volleyball, maybe modeling. LOL!

Conversations with Mr. Frog

Chloe loves to 'try' to talk to Mr. Frog. Mr. Frog is a musical frog. Whenever you bump/hit Mr. Frog he plays a musical tune. Chloe loves to hear him play. However, sometimes she does not hit him hard enough and he does not play. When that happens, she definitely has something to say about it. She tries so hard to talk to him...probably trying to explain that she wants to hear some tunes! Here are some pics of her in action.

'What you talkin' bout Willis?!?!'

These pictures really need no words. Chloe is so animated and already has such a variety of facial expressions. She may not be able to talk, but she can definitely communicate.
I have often wondered what goes on in the mind of a baby/small child who cannot speak yet...especially when a much larger version of themselves (adults) are hovering over them talking baby talk...the goo goo gaa gaa language. I now know thanks to these pics. The first thing that popped in to my head when I saw these was that famous line from the old TV show "Different Strokes." I swear if she could have talked she would have said, "What you talkin' bout Willis?!?!" Oh to see oursevles through her eyes...it must be very amusing and confusing!

SNOW!!

Yesterday it REALLY snowed. I'll bet we got almost 3 inches. It was truly a welcome sight and absolutely gorgeous. You see, we see snow rarely around here...and if it actually sticks on the ground, the whole city shuts down! LOL! With all the polution it's no wonder it takes a miracle for it to actually stick...but this time, it did!

The dogs LOVED playing in the snow!

Road Trip!

This past weekend, we took our first official mini-road trip. We went to visit Nana B.B. I was a bit skeptical and nervous as to how traveling with a 5.5 week old baby, a 7 year old dog, and a 6 year old dog would go....PERFECT! I know I say this a lot, but we are SOOO BLESSED! We all got there and back in one piece and had a wonderful visit with Nana and the rest of my family.

Say Cheese!

Needless to say it was snowing like crazy today. We got almost 3 inches! So, in the attempts to entertain ourselves, what did we do? Took more pictures of Chloe of course. LOL! Witnessing those 'firsts' in your children's lives are breathtaking. However, to actually be able to capture these precious moments on camera are truly priceless. Enjoy!
