Just Hanging Out

ah, the lazy days of summer.....

Actually, these pictures were taken around 10:00 in the morning, after feeding April, showering, breakfast, folding and putting away laundry, putting April down for a nap, Chloe's breakfast, changing into 'real' clothes, more laundry, unloading the dishwasher, and feeding April again.....

So maybe not too lazy, but still wonderful :)

Chloe was hard at work on a drawing....in between stares across the street to the roofers working at our neighbors house. April was happy in her bouncy seat watching the world go by.


Simple joys:



I asked Chloe to show me her drawing:

and then I asked if I could take a picture :) Here is her masterpiece:

Looks like a great day so far! Isn't it amazing what a mom gets done by mid-morning?! I have been meaning to comment on your blog for several posts now, but my thoughts fit equally well for this one -- both girls are beautiful and I am excited to see you guys in a few weeks! :)

Chloe at 11 months

I can hardly believe that Chloe will have her 1st birthday next month. She is getting increasingly mobile these days - her 'crawl' is getting faster and faster. She is also pulling up on anything she trusts and occasionally cruises from one place to another. If you watched the video, you have also seen that she can use the walker...but needs Dad's help on the turns :) Chloe still loves music of any kind ~ she sways back and forth when the music starts. Singing will bring her out of any temper tantrum or pout. She likes to be outside and still tries to eat rocks...something we're still slowly learning... Over Memorial Day, Chloe had quite an interest in the American flag and at the 4th of July we found that her love hadn't faded and she carried around the flag all day. She likes her new toys (nesting boxes and a "push the button, door pops open") but is still interested in some of her old ones. She likes anything with a lid and has a new fascination ...
