SPRING IS HERE!!

So, we decided to change the color of our front room. We (um...Miker) chose a color that he swore was green ( I told him it was yellow but...) After taping, and putting the tarp down (about 2 hours of work) we began painting. First stroke in he looks at me and says - um...this is yellow. We decided to just keep going. After it dried it did darken up and turn a shade of green. By the end we totally agreed - WE HATED IT!! So, we hit up Home Depot once again and chose something completely opposite. The color is called Pepper Spice and it turned out so warm and pretty. Here are a few pics. We have the before, the bad and the after. Today we did a ton of yard/house work. We planted a bunch of new stuff. It was a blast but also a lot of work. We're beat!!

Well, off to have a nice home cooked meal and a well deserved bath!!

Happy weekend to you all!!

THE MANY LOOKS OF A GROWING GIRL

I was going through pics from the last couple of months and it really brought a smile to my face to see just how expressive and fun Chloe has become. All these pictures are from right before Christmas until yesterday.

Enjoy!

















She's quite the little poser. Happy 2010.

I HEART YOU!

Me: Good morning!

Chloe : Um...um...Mommy....I love you. I love you with all your heart and my heart and daddy's heart and Snow White and blue elephant and Christmas puppy and my princess book.

Not a bad way to start the day!

FRIDAY

Where should I start? We had a super fun weekend. Miker decided to take Friday off so we got an extra day together. We started the day with some house work. Miker and Chloe worked out in the yard while I took care of the inside. We met Mike (Cearley) for lunch to celebrate his last day at IMC2. After a nice long lunch, we hit the mall. Chloe and Miker played at the indoor playground while I did a little shopping. Before we left we noticed that they had an area set up with these huge trampolines. Chloe got all strapped in to a little harness and away she went. The harness was attached to a cord that the guy running the place held on to. As she jumped he would pull the cord and she would go higher and higher. She had a blast!




She's so brave. Definitely doesn't take after me in that department.

We got home and had dinner. Chloe was so beat. She took her bath, watched a little tv and was in bed by 7.

PICS BY CHLOE

YES....We are dorks.

CHLOE'S FAVORITE BABY

Notice the pink "lip stuff" (that's what Chloe calls it) next to Monko. He is so good with her!

READY FOR THE PARK

Here are some random pics I took yesterday. Enjoy!!
