Happy Birthday, Chloe!!!



Today is Chloe's birthday!! Has it really been 2 years already?!?! The time sure has flown by! This little Chloe Hope has been such a blessing in our life! Little did she know when she was born (or did she?) that she had a big mission in front of her - to give her Mom and Dad some hope to carry on and much needed cuddle time. She truly has done just that!




This sweet little girl was born April 5th, 2006. She was 6 lb. 14 oz. and 20 in. long. She had black curly hair and was the sweetest little baby. She only cried when she was hungry or needed a diaper change. I prayed so long and hard that our next baby would be healthy and easy to care for. That prayer has been answered time and time again.

This adorabe, blue eyed little angel is my little buddy. I have a hard time leaving her. Chloe is all girl and loves to try make-up and get her hair fixed. I have been fixing her hair since she was a day old (it was an inch long when she was born!), so she is totally used to it and loves it. She absolutely adores Chris and Zach and is learning how to play rough with them. She is talking very well and is a super smart little girl.

We couldn't have asked for a sweeter spirit to come into our home. She is truly our Chloe HOPE and I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father that he trusts me enough to care for his precious child. It truly is an honor to be her mother and I hope that I will do a good job raising her. Heavenly Father knows just what we need when we need it - and Chloe was just what I needed at this time in my life story! I love you, Chloe Hope!

Photo Shoot



Here are some of my favorite pictures from the kids photo shoot last Saturday. I am not quite sure what is up with the layout on this...but oh well. I remember telling my mom after Zach was born that I had the ablsolute cutest kid(s) in the world! But then I caught myself and said, "But I bet you thought that yours were the absolute cutest too, huh!" Of which she replied, "YEP!" So, I know that I totally think that my kids are the cutest, and you parents out there think that yours are the absolute cutest! That is the way it is supposed to be!! I hope you all are having fun with your absolutely cute kids!
