Chloee at 8 months old its still getting harder and harder to get her to keep the stickers on her shirt oh well i usually manage to get at least one picture with it until she secretly rips it off and destroys it..... I loved taking her 8 month photos for one reason all the beautiful fall leaves a beautiful baby to pose in some beautiful leaves fun for this mama. Although i still didn't manage to get her to smile shes always serious when i get the camera out its like she knows what i'm doing cause right before and after her little photo shoot shes grinning from ear to ear and daddy was at work so i didn't have his help oh well they turned out cute. This first one is my favorite i love it.
What you say i'm 8 months old how could this be!?
I LOVE crawling let me show off my skills
I can zip around the wood floors crawling like its nothing i'm that good
Chloee still loves her Sophie the giraffe

At 8 months Chloee still loved standing up on everything toys chairs whatever she could find. Loved to talk scream and giggle such a cutie i love seeing all her progress in things she learns she is a very intelligant baby almost scary how smart and strong this little girl is. We love everything about her and couldnt imagine life without her. Chloee you bring a joy to everyone around you.
Heres some pictures of my beautiful baby girl we got done when she was 7 months old and oh how i feel like shes already changed and grown up again. (Yes i know shes now only 9 months.) She was such a good girl and smiled so cute. Although by the time we were done she was ready to eat and take a nap which she gladly did.
I decided it would be fun to get a couple shots of me and Chloee and i LOVE this one, it was so creative.
Ok mommy really are we almost done yet?
Oh everyone look at me i'm so cute and LOVE getting all the attention
Cute little perfect toes
I don't mind crawling on the wood floor i am a pro
Hello up there
So relaxing to lay here and suck on my toe
I always have a fun time during Chloees photoshoot its so fun but sometimes stressful changing their outfits, you don't know how they will be haha. I think Chloee should be used to the camera by now i mean i take so many photos of her at home i cant resist but i'm sure once shes older she will love to look back on how cute she was in her many photos hahaha.
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our spunky beautiful Chloee yesterday she turned 9 months (sniff sniff) I'm sad to see her growing up so fast but at the same time love all the new stages i just can't believe it 9 months already. Chloee loves to talk she babbles alday long crawling around the house and walking her baby stroller. This girl is going to have alot to say once she starts to talk can't wait to hear it all haha. Chloee has got her dad and i wrapped around her little finger she is our life now anything Chloee wants she gets babies know how to get what they want haha we will have to get that under control the older she gets or at least TRY haha.
Daddy came home from work and got Chloee to smile she LOVES her daddy so much he always makes her laugh and smile. Mommy can too but for some reason she knows when i start to take pictures she just acts so serious haha what a cutie she has a mind of her own.
Chloee got to see her uncle Kevin and Uncle Bo on her birthday they stopped by to get a haircut for the holidays coming up. Chloee was so excited to see them i can't wait until both my brothers start having kids Chloee needs more cousins all of hers live far away in Louisiana and alover the place:(
Here's a little video of Chloee before she had her nap she was definatly a little cranky and not a happy girl...........
So since Chloee was up alnight this was how our day started out, she first woke up and was so happy playing around smiling, then after i gave her a bath and got her dressed it finally hit her at how tired she was after messing up her good sleeping pattern. I think these are some of the saddest faces but at the same time it was kinda funny since i knew all she needed was a nice long nap.
After crying for a good 5 minutes i fed her wrapped her up and she fell fast asleep and slept for a good 3 hours, which we both needed Chloee to take this nap but me instead of sleeping i tried to clean the house up but failed i was super tired so i just took a break and did NOTHING AT ALL, it felt nice to relax a little.
Ahhhhhh the wonders of what a nap can do Chloee woke upand was back to her normal cute giggly spunky active self which were were both so happy!
YAY i'm so happy now walking my babies around the house and i promise mommy i will be a good girl tonight and not wake up says Chloee.
Chloee also loves her Baby Einstein musical toy, ok so she has alot of favorite toys i need lots of things to keep my active child entertained!
Theres only one word that describes this momma today and that is EXHAUSTED! So Chloee is having this crazy desire wanting to wake up at 1:00 in the morning and play until 3:30 or so, this is not cool Chloee really! Anyways last night Andrew put her to bed around 9:00 and sure enough she woke up at 1:00, i tried everything to keep her in the sleeping mode playing lullabies swaddled her in her warm minky blanket sang to her. Nothing worked she popped her head up wide eyed and ready to jump out of my arms. Andrew and i were in Logan last weekend at my parents anyways Sat. night Chloee woke up at 1:00 and stayed awake until 5:00am. so crazy i dont know how she wasn't exhausted she had all the energy in the world. The only thing i can think about these crazy sleep patterns is maybe shes teething or going through a big growth spurt of somekind i don't know whats going on, but Chloee is seriously and amazing sleeper we've have been so lucky so when she doesn't sleep it throws me off. Hopefully it doesn't continue into an everynight thing haha, i can handle it if its only a couple times a week but if she starts doing this everynight i might just be a Zombie everyday. I'm already so exhausted today its going to be a very LONG day.
So i decided to let Chloee play around and get some energy out so she would want to go back to sleep. So she loves to push anything around including her baby einstein musical toy, it looks so funny. Chloee is such a petite little thing but crazy strong and so determined she pushes it around like its nothing and once again just happy to be on her feet walking.
Playing and Playing having so much fun early in the morning while mommy can barely keep her eyes open haha.FINALLY at around 3:45 as i was sitting on the couch watching her play and get all her energy out, she came crawling over to me pulled herself up on her feet whining for me to pick her up which was a good sighn! I wrapped her up sang to her and she fell asleep within 5 min. she was so exhausted. So heres to hoping for a better night of sleep for the both of us tonight, wish me luck haha.
This is seriously one of Chloees favorite toys she can crawl threw the door climb up on the house, lots of fun activities on this little toy house. Her favorite thing now which it so cute is to play PEEK-A BOO. She loves to open and close the window as i have my face waiting for her to see as she opens and closes it. She also loves to open and close the door while standing up, YAY i'm on my feet mommy. Chloee is so active alday i seriously have to watch her every second of the day. She will play cute by herself too but shes into everything literally everything, she is one curious girl.I love you Chloee but you wear me out somedays haha.
What a gorgeous fall day today it was 66 degrees thats a nice temperature for Utah around this time, we enjoyed the day went to lunch with Jennifer and Sophie then to Old Navy we were going to head to the park afterwards but both kids were ready for naps which right when i got in the car Chloee fell fast asleep. When we got home and after her nap she was so excited it was still warm outside so i hooked up her jumper to the door outside. This was one of her favorite things in the summer, she was so happy and giggly, twirling, spinning around, talking up a storm and screaming too dang cute i love this girl. I'm still dreading winter Chloee will be so bored being inside so much i'm afraid our playdates will have to consist of indoor activities. I am excited they are building a new aquarium in Draper the one in Sandy is nice but this new one will be amazing i can't wait for it to open.
Chloee and Sophie at Blimpie they are too cute together. Sophie eating the actual sandwich since shes older than Chloee haha. Chloee had some pieces of bread and turkey which she loves, shes chewing foods so good now days well as good as you can without teeth right haha.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2013 Chloees very first Halloween she was our cute little watermelon. I dressed Chloee up in her costume a few days before Halloween to get some cute pictures do you think i could get her to smile once NO not for the life of me, she was so serious playing and crawling in the leaves i was trying everything to get her to smile but i failed haha. So we tried again on Halloween and of course her daddy got her to giggle and smile non stop so thanks to him we got our cute little baby girl to smile in her costume!
