Silly Pictures

Chloe can be very silly at times....of course the "horrible three's" hits us hard some days. I never believed my friends who said three was worse than two....but it sure is. She is sooooo independent, I dont know where she gets that from, and sometimes its a battle of the wills. It doesnt help that Jon and I are about the most stubborn people we know. Its going to be interesting teenage years. But here are some pics of her being the silly fun loving girl she is....

PLaying with these great aprons that Aunt Amber made. Usually she is asking me to put them on her bear. But not today.

Being silly while at Aunt Kates house. Not sure why I have duplicates....but its twice the fun

I Have no idea whats going on here.....





channeling Michael Phelps

Her pajama bottoms, stuck on her head
 Pla

No words for this one either.....but hilarious

Happy Easter!!EasgtE

Easer Morning...we found out basket....looks like the Tinker Bell theme continues with the Easter Bunny.

Tinker Bell cup, flashing necklace and various chocolates that she will never eat....

First baseball and glove!! And its pink....of course I didnt think to get her a left handed glove. She is left handed.....like Jon. However, its a right handers world, lets be honest. Why would I ever think to buy something for lefties?!? Besides I would never have found a glove like that that wasnt a million bucks...right?!?

Going to Grandma Anne's for Easter! Chloe picked this dress and headband out herself, with my guidance. As much as she loves sports and playing inside she also has a very girlie side to her. That she does not get from me....

She keeps saying how bootiful she is.....I have to agree



Opening our Easter basket at Grandma Anne's. She is about to go off to the easter egg hunt, which apparently I dont have pictures of?!?

Happy 3rd Birthday Chloe!!

Cousin Caitlin came to have a slumber party the night before Chloe's party. So we  had to make cupcakes for the party of course! Here is Chloe masterfully decorating her cupcakes.

Here is cousin Caitlin working on her cupcake. THe girls had a blast wat Chloes first slumber party. We all went to dinner at Pizza Hut, which Caitlin has never had. That was a big hit. The girls played really well together, chased each other with a balloon and laughed like crazy. Both were very tired girls when it was time for bed.

Chloe picked a Tinkerbell theme. THis is her current obession. She watched one movie. Mom doesnt mind since for another year I can avoid princess or pink craziness.

Here is uncle Chris, somehow managing to fall asleep with a house full of kids, and familyy craziness.......

Chloe's cake!




Eating cake and icecream!

Here is Chloe's new two wheeler from mom and dad! She wasnt quite big enough but she was trying to ride it around the house. THis is also her new outfit for summer with new winter polka dot tights. Already has her own crazy sense of style.
She looks so big and grown up here.

Winter Fun!

 We had an extremely mild winter here in Buffalo. So there was not much of an occasion for playing outside in the snow. It barely snowed! And seemed to be mostly a dewy 45degrees. But here is Jon and Chloe attempting a snow man in the back yard. They took all this time to roll up the snow, as you can see the lines. Only for the snowman to crash to the ground.....
Here is daddy starting over, Chloe is looking back at the last snowman, and his fate.


Built a snowan twice, and it crashed twice!! Just not our luck this winter....

Christmas 2011

 Christmas card picture. Its amazing how many attempts it takes just to get something that looks decent! Chloe had a blast this year decorating the tree. She is becoming quite the big girl, with very much a mind of her own.

Some christmas morning fun. Christmas is getting more fun and exciting every year, now that she is bigger. She is very excited about christmas morning and Santa coming.

Chloe opening her favorite, Derek Jeter shirt! She loves the yankees, of course, we wouldnt have it any other way in this house!

Not sure what happened here, but the picture came out neat, so thought I would add it.

More Halloween

Few more Halloween pics that were forgotton. Some trick or treating. It was fun this year for the first time. Not to cold and Chloe had fun.

Halloween 2011

  Getting ready to carve our Halloween Pumpkin. Chloe was much more into it this year. Last yr she was really grossed out by the inside and did not like the slimyness!

Dad drew a face on


Go Bills!


The final product.

Our little Bumble Bee. We went trick or treating min my friend Jill's neighborhood. She always decorates nicely and has more kids around for ambiance.

Fall Fun!! 2011

Fall trip to Becker Farms. Un seasonably hot, that we were not dressed for. It was in late october and was 80!! Chloe picked some pumpkins to put on the porch and pumpkins to carve for Halloween. We always visit the farm animals even though she is afraid of them every year. They have vineyards, corn and apple orchards at Becker Farms. Chloe could just not understand that the grapes, corn and apples she was seeing were the same that we eat at home! She was hysterical about it.





She is examining these apples. Trying to process that they grow on the tree and then we can eat them at home!
