Chloe's Imagination

You make me laugh!

You are constantly playing pretend.  You play "Mommy and Baby" where one toy will whine and cry and the Mommy toy will either soothe or lecture the crying toy.  Hmm... I suppose that's what I do.

You'll also read to your toys, put on puppet shows for them, or just toss them around.

I loved how you lined up all your toys here.

It's neat to see how your "play" has changed.  It's much more interactive now.

I love you babe,

Mom

Fish and Friends

We got to visit the ABQ aquarium with lots of friends.

There were lots of boys there so girls teamed up and clung together.  You and Brinley Sego in particularly held hands and guided each other around.  One of your best friend, Austin's, feelings were a little hurt by it though.  He kept trying to hold your hand and you would refuse to.  You just wanted to chill with the girls.  It was funny but it made me so sad for Austin.

Be nice to everyone, please.  We all have feelings that are delicate and it is important to consider everyone's feelings.

I hope that you will always be a loving person who helps everyone to feel like they have a friend because this  world isn't always so kind.

Also, Daddy was away on a Sunday which rarely happens.  So we took some pictures to let him know we missed him.  He's got a family of beautiful girls!

I love you honey!

You're growing up so fast.

Love,

Mom

Happy Valentines Day!

The holiday of love.

We decided to host a Valentines Day party with all the people you love the most (minus a few).  We let parents go out for a date night and all your cousins were left her to have some fun.  We decorated cookies, ate pizza, did a pinata, and had lots and lots of fun.

I can't think of a better way to celebrate Valentine's Day than with family.

I love you,

Mom!

Shrine Circus

We all know that between you and your daddy, we've got plenty of clowns in our family.  So why not go visit your distant cousins at the shrine circus, right?

Just kidding, you are not related to any clowns but you sure know how to act silly.

While daddy was away on a work trip, the circus came to Albuquerque.  I decided to call Grandma and Grandpa and invite them along.  Grandma was busy at work but Grandpa Allen and Uncle Josh were free to see the show... and help me with my needy children (I say that in a loving way... I promise).  We watched dancing elephants, jumping tigers, fast motorcycles that flew through the air, and much more.  It was a great time.  The only time you got went into a fit was when you took a single lick of your ice cream cone and the whole top fell to the floor.  You were so disappointed!  But grandpa saved the day with cotton candy!  I'm sure glad they came along for the ride.

It was a good night!

Love you... Clown!

Mom
