Chloe Meets Santa...poor guy!

Confession time...yes, I am going to be one of those sabotaging parents who will torture my child throughout her years with the constant reminder of those 'most embarrassing' moments I have strategically captured. This is one of those moments...I am thinking Senior yearbook...any other thoughts? LOLOLOLOL!!

Random Pictures of Chloe

Here are a few more pictures of Chloe from her last phot session...I am in the process of playing some serious catch up, so please bare with me. Kristen Overbay does EXCELLENT work, so if you are interested in some great photography quality and price, she is your gal!

This is Chloe's first time swinging ~ what a fun, special moment Kristen captured!

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!

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!
