Pics

I have taken a few pictures of Chloe in the last few week. Here are a couple of them.


Yes in a couple of them, she is standing on her own. She can do that for about 15 to 20 seconds on her own before she catches herself or falls. In this last one, she got so tired that when Christophe picked her up, she fell asleep. (Yes she drools a ton!!)

Stinker

Chloe is such a big stinker. We are trying to get her used to her crib, so she will sleep in there at night. Yesterday, while Christophe was in there she did this. . .


We knew she could stand herself up, but this is the first time that she climbed up the bumper to make herself higher. So you say it is time to lower my crib, it is already on the lowest setting. And just now as I am writing this, she found a small crack between the couch and the wall and started crawling through it, and got stuck and started fussing. My cute stinker is exploring a lot more lately.

This is just a video of her crawling a few days ago.

5 1/2 months and crawling

Chloe has been trying to figure out crawling for a few weeks. She would get on her hands and knees and move her knees, but kept her hands on the ground. The last few days she has started moving her hands, but kept her knees where they were. But last night she figured out she had to do them both together. It was a slow and thoughtful crawl, but she did it. Help me!

Earlier this week, we went to Kiddie Kandids and got Chloe's picture taken for my mom and Christophe's mom's birthdays. I couldn't wait for their actual birthdays to give them there picture though. Below are the picture that we got.

Chloe

Chloe went into her 4 month appointment yesterday. She is now 11 lbs 1 ounce and 23 inches long. So she is still little but is getting bigger.

Blessing

Yesterday we blessed Chloe. It was really nice. Thanks to all the family and friends that came. It was a really nice day.



Here is Chloe and William playing after church. I looks like Chloe had the cooler toys to play with, sorry William.

Work

So Christophe finally found a job (YAY!!!) that started a month ago, I know I'm a little slow at posting this. He works for TruGreen, it is a lawn care place. He goes door to door to sale the service. The week before he started I went back to work. I had to work full time that week, but from then on, I got to go part time. Which works out perfectly, almost. I go to work from 8:00 to about 11:40 and Christophe works 11:50 to 9:00 Monday through Thursday and 9:00 to 6:00 on Fridays. So once I am off work, I meet him at his work and we switch cars and I go home with Chloe. It is nice only having to worry about finding someone to watch Chloe 1 day a week for just a few hours. If I had to work to pay for daycare, I don't think I could make myself go work. It has been very nice so far because we have had either family or friends be able to watch her. And Christophe's mom is planning on watching her for most Fridays for the rest of the summer. Family is great!!

Smiles

I get a lot of good smiles everyday now, but whenever I pull out my phone to take a picture, Chloe stops smiling. So here are a couple half smiles that I have been able to capture.
