Chloe is Four Months Old!!

I can't believe it!! Where do the days go!? It seems like I was just writing Chloe's three month post and now she's a month older! Lets see, I want to tell you all about the things she's learning and doing but first you must see how much she's grown!! So, here are the latest pictures of her in the chair.

Chloe has been growing a changing in so many ways!! Lets see if I can remember them all...

I think I mentioned last month that she had just started "accidently" rolling from her tummy to her back. Well, she's getting pretty good at it now. Her tummy is not her favorite place to be so she'll often roll her self over almost as soon as I lay her down.





Her head and back are so much stronger!!

One of the cutest things that Chloe is learning is how to grab her feet! I just think it's so adorable to watch her laying on her back in this little ball, tiny fingers exploring tiny toes. So cute! The funny thing is, I've noticed that she won't even try to touch her feet when she has pants on...?

Chloe's laugh is getting much stronger. She still seems to find the most random things amusing. I wanted to show you a game that Brian started playing with her that she gets a big kick out of. But, I can't get the video that I took to work. :(

Chloe can sit now with just the balance of hanging on to my fingers!

Also while hanging onto someones fingers she can be pulled all the way to a standing position. She gets the cutest little look on her face when she does it that seems to say "whoa, look what I can do!"

Chloe Found her thumb. She still seems to prefer her binky most the time but her thumb has been a helpful fill in now and then. I've even caught her trying to suck on both thumbs at once!



Chloe's little personality is really beginning to blossom. One of the ways we see it is in the silly faces she's starting to make. Here are some that I've been able to catch on camera.

Here are some random favorites that we've taken over the past month. I included the one below to show how big she's getting for her cradle. We're thinking that we're gonna need to switch to the pack and play soon. :(

This pooh bear is one of Chloe's most often played with toys. He's pretty big compared to her but she's finally getting to the point where she can hang onto him. He has a little rattle inside of him and just recently she was able to get a good hold on his shirt and give him a good shake. As soon as she heard the sound she got a cute little look on her face that seemed to say "why pooh! I didn't know you made sounds!"


I've learned that my daughter likes to have her head snuggled up against something as she sleeps. So, this little lamb now shares her small cradle. I love laying Chloe down and watching her nuzzle her cheek into it's side. There have been multiple times that we've gone in to check on her only to see that she has managed to get one of the lambs legs flopped over accross her face. She's still so tiny but my heart is already so burdened for the salvation of my little Chloe. I pray that one day she will turn to THE Lamb of God for more than just comfort but for forgiveness and redemption (Col.1:14)

He he! She looks like she's dancing!
Here she looks like she has a great secret!
Grabbin' those toes!
ooops! To many pictures!

Watching football with Dad. :)

Such a happy face!! Chloe has her ups and downs like all babies do. And as all mothers do I've had my struggles, worries, doubts and fears. But, when I see that smile it makes it all worth it, and I praise God for all that He has chosen to give me. The downs make me even more thankful for the ups. The tears make me enjoy the smiles so much more!

Well, there you have it! I had hoped to get this post out a little bit sooner, but as I said at the start "where do the days go!?"
