Super Mom...

Chloe has a baby in her front pack and another one on her shoulders!

Making cookies etc.

Now that Daddy is done hunting (for this year), he brought his hunting blind and sleeping pad in the house for Chloe to use!
Needless to say, she has enjoyed her fort...

and moved right in!

When I saw this I had to take a picture!

Decorating cookies takes a lot of consentration! (I always forget and load my pictures so that everything happens in reverse order... oh well, I'm sure you can figure it out)

cutting out cookies

Chloe and mommy made gingerbread cookies

A science experiment...

Last night as Chloe was sitting up to the counter having her bedtime snack, she decided to dump her orange juice into her sleepytime tea (which had milk and honey in it). She mixed it up and it promptly curdled. She set it aside and went back to eating her snack. A couple minutes later she picked up her tea cup and went to take a sip, then got a disgusted look on her face and said, "Hey mommy, is this puke?!"

Thanksgiving...

Great music!
Doing art with cousins Melissa and Riley

Chloe very much enjoyed getting to spend time with her more distant cousins Melissa (she got a little confused some of the time and called her "Aunty Melissa")...

Thankyou!

To Sarah S. who helped me get this blog going and to Deanna for her help along the way... I am a "computer immigrant" so without their help I may have never accomplished this!

Chloe loves to read...

to cousin Eli

to cousin Brenna

to Daddy (actually, I think this story is being sung!)

Reading her Bible to her baby

Reading to her babies outside...

and inside! Chloe spends a lot of time reading!

Nov. 2008 baby bump #2

Here is my baby bump...

Just kidding! This is my baby bump at this time 3 years ago!

A few pictures from the last couple of months

Jeff and Scott Elk hunting in Idaho.

Our good friends Karen, Ava, and Vienna, came back to visit after moving away.

Chloe nursing her baby

Many wonderful hats!

"Grandma moo cows" gave Chloe her first Fancy Nancy book, which inspired her to get herself all dressed up like Fancy Nancy. The funny thing was that in the book Fancy Nancy gets furious about not being able to go to her friend's b-day party, but Chloe (not knowing the word "furious" yet), assumed that it must mean "fancy". So after getting all dressed up she very happily told us that she was being "furious!" Later that night when Jeff was trying on his new hunting clothes, she said, "Daddy, you look furious!"
