7/09

7/2 Chloe is 4 months old!! Who can believe we have come this far. Certainly not us. Time is flying already. The little champ is still sleeping through the night. We moved her into her crib this week. Bigg transition! She didnt skip a beat. Jon and I did not fair so well. It was nice to have our space back but sad to not have her smell in our room, and the ound of her breathing. One transition in a lifetime of many. She is still loving her floor gym, but has added a new weapon to her arsenal! The exersaucer!! Once she checked it out very thoroughly, and analyzed every inch it was game on. She has grown more and more. Now a heavty 13.9 lbs and 23 3/4 inches long!! She is still working on holding the bottle. The small bottles we use with the breast pump are easier for her.

7/4 Fourth of July!!! Independence day. We have trekked out to Rochester for a Claeys family picnic. Chloe will be meeting Aunts and Uncles from out of state for the first time! Stayed the weekend in Rochester and it went well. Despite all the gear we have to bring, its not to terrible going overnight.

Poor little thing is just like her momma. Does like the heat and sweats up a storm in the summer. We needed a pool. sprinkler was fun, I wasnt sure how she would like it, all she did was try to lick the water!

7/10 Off to the doctor for our first ear infection! Chole is so easy going for the most part. And she took this in stride like everything else. She took her medicine like a champ and was back to her old self in no time.

7/24 Grandma Claeys, aunt laura and caitlin came out to visit to watch Chloe for the night. Jon and I had tickets to see Billy Joel and Elton John, we waited months. And of course 3 hrs before the show....cancelled. Billy Joel with the flu? Come on for as much as we paid, suck it up Billy!!! Everyone stayed and gave Jon and I a much needed night out. Went to dinner, walked along the river and met some friends for drinks....like old times. Chloe of course gave Grandma a little bit of a hard time. I guess she wanted to show her who was boss in her house!! LOL!

Chloe and Daddy playing "Super Baby" Trying for some giggles!
