Ok so I have tried 3 times this week to update this forgotten blog, somehow i get almost finished and I loose everything. So here it goes one last time.

So many holidays, events and thoughts that I have to write about since it has been so long since my last blog. So I figure it all narrows down to the fact that an entire year has gone by since my precious girl arrived here! She has blown us away by showing us how smart she is, how much she loves us and how darn cute she is. Most of all she has taught me how much I can love. I never imagined that I would love anything this much. She keeps me going, makes me smile and brightens each day.

Scott and I have watched her turn into an amazing young girl. Not a baby anymore, she is a toddler now! Chloe had a play date today with a baby that was 7 months old and we were surprised to see that she is not that much bigger then the baby, but acts and looks so grown up compared to one.

It has been a great year, but more specifically we have had a really great last month or so. We have had birthday party's, Halloween party's and Halloween, Her first birthday/Uncle's 18th and now her Daddy's Birthday. She is turning out to be a regular old party girl! Halloween was awesome Chloe was the cutest Tinkerbell ever and lasted a whole hour of going door to door. Her Birthday was insane, a house full of 32 people celebrating with her and her Uncle at the Tinkerbell party. Her Uncle Travis looked pretty cute as a fairy...I have to track down the photo's of that;)

Anyway, you get the gist of things, busy spoiled beautiful girl!

In a year she has learned so much and I just can't wait to watch what's next.

***I have never been more happy for summer in my life as I am now. I have felt so couped up this winter because of our new addition. I was so scared of her getting sick or me getting sick and making her sick. So more or less we stayed in all winter well I happily watched her sleep the first couple months away!

BUT NOW!!!!

We get to go and do amazing fun things. We can camp, go to the beach, walks for hours with Chevy Dawg, picnics or even just plant flowers in the yard, rollerblade, sit outside and BBQ. All of these things I have done many times, I now know I have taken them for granted HUGELY! I am so excited to show Chloe everything, do everything, and enjoy my time off because it has been 5 years since my last summer vacation!!! Waaahhoooo

The weather here is in around the 30 degree range and absolutely GORGEOUS! I think we are in for a very very Hot one. We had to dig out the air conditioner yesterday and set it up so that we could sleep last night.

(Usually I whine about it being so hot but not this year.)

The other major reason for my complete happiness is that Chevy has been a little neglected since Chloe came along and we decided to be home bound. The poor pup was so bored it was practically written on his forehead.

BUT NOW!

On Thursday Chloe and I took him for a 4 hour adventure. We walked, went to the dog beach and let him swim, walked some more and then eventually ended up at an old friends house and played with her two children. So all and all he was a very happy pup! Yesterday we were out in the yard all day planting flowers so we had lots of playing time in between. Today we took Chevy to the Dog Beach again and hung out in the sun. Chloe touched the wet sand for her very first time. She loved it! I think she is gonna be more like her Daddy who likes to play hard and get dirty, rather then her Uncle Corey who likes to play hard and stay clean!

We had a Blast in the sun today, Can't wait for more fun adventures!***

Chloe's first time in sand and lake. Thanks Auntie Britt

You don't want to mess with me!!!
