Chloe's new Toy

My mom and dad got Chloe a interactive pet ball and I think she likes it. She is a little unsure of why it moves and then stays still when we turn it off. We are sure enjoying watching her play with it.

Christmas 2009

We had a wonderful, busy, fun filled four days of Christmas celebrations. We had dinner with Mom, Dad and Stacey on Christmas Eve. Christmas Day was busy. We started with opening presents that Santa brought to our house. Then we went Grandma and Grandpa P's house to open up presents with them and Aunt Stacey. Then it was off to the Becky and Bill's for dinner and more presents with the Halstead clan. Saturday it was off to MI to celebrate Christmas with Grandma and Granpa G and Uncle Shawn and Aunt Jen! Then Sunday was spent celebrating with Aunt Linda, Aunt Deb, Uncle Steve and Karin. While in MI we even fit in time to see a few friends of mine from high school. It was a wonderful weekend and we feel truly blessed to have such wonderful family and friends in our life!

4 months

It is hard to believe but our little girl is 4 months today. Here are her 4 month pictures. her appointment is Jan 15 so I will post after that how big she is getting!

Chloe

Chloe is groomed and ready for the holiday season. They even put a festive bow in her hair and bandana on her neck, which only lasted a few hours!

Wrapping presents

I tried to get a few presents wrapped today under th watchful eye of Santa's helpers (Kaelyn & Chloe)...I didn't accomplish much.

Learning lots of new tricks

Kaelyn is learning lots of new things every day. While on her back she can scoot herself around in a circle. She is working hard on rolling over from her back to her tummy. Her arm keeps getting in the way. And she is grabbing for things a lot more than before. Today I had her in her crib with her rattle. I ran to switch the laundry and when I came back she had somehow ended up with the rattle over her arm like a purse. I guess it never is too young to start accessorizing!

Bumbo

Kaelyn now has pretty good control of her head so we got out the Bumbo for her to try. I think she likes being able to view the world from a new position.

Dady comes home!

Kaelyn & I were so excited to see Daddy when he came home this week (not that we aren't every week)! Kaelyn got to spend some time cuddling with daddy even though it was past her bedtime.

Snow

We had our first snow of the year today. Kaelyn was all bundled up and nice and warm on our way to music class.
