Chloe Grace at 6 months


This big girl is 14 pounds, 14 ounces and 27.5 inches long. The doctor says there is nothing wrong with being tall and thin; I replied 'it's only a problem for her dad' :)

Chloe is able to sit up on her own very well and likes to have plenty of toys surrounding her. Her favorite toys are her ring tower, her remote (an old one that I took the batteries out of), and her bug-loop teether. She likes to read books and her favorite has been the Tails book given to her by the only Aunt and Uncle she hasn't met! She gets excited when I pull out the Tails book and she isn't happy with reading it only one time through - she prefers three or more!

She talks to herself, making the 'ba', 'ha', and vowel sounds. She laughs when she has her belly tickled and is starting to lean into us for hugs (or, I like to think that they are hugs). She eats 5 times a day and will start veggies soon. She is still sleeping like a champ!

We love you Chloe! You bring so much joy to each day!

I can't believe Miss Chloe is six months now ... I feel like we just got 'the call' from Kevin a few days ago! :) She is beautiful.

They are definitely hugs! And I know each one makes your day:o)

She's only 7.5 lbs. behind Leah:)

I think we need to do our camping trip sooner than later before she grows up too much more....we miss you all! Besides, you want to camp before she starts wanting to walk around in the mud, right?!

Wedding!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin! :) We attended Natalie and Dallas' wedding on Saturday and had a lovely time. We know both the bride and groom from college....and just happen to be great friends with the bride's parents as well (Hi Bill and Doreen!). Here is the new couple - Natalie looked beautiful, and Dallas looked pretty good too ;) Here I am with the bride - check out her BLUE shoes! No wedding is complete without a little dancing and singing....particularly to Livin on a Prayer....Steve, Jeff, and Kevin sang at the top of their lungs and performed an air guitar solo: even the bride joined in: We had a great time! I'm thinking of the honeymooners.....kind of wishing I was on a tropical island somewhere too! :)

34 Weeks

34 weeks and my belly button has popped out :)  haha!  I'm still feeling a lot of movement and today my doctor said everything was great.  Here's some info on our "Baby Brother", as I refer to this little guy with Chloe and April: Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds ( about the size of a cantaloupe ) and is almost 18 inches long. His fat layers — which will help regulate his body temperature once he's born — are filling him out, making him rounder. His skin is also smoother than ever. His central nervous system is maturing and his lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor , you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies.
