Chloe Post: 1-2-3-4 ROCK AND ROLL ROCK AND ROLL

I love music! I am very musical, indeed. I love to tap my drum sticks together and say, "1, 2, 3, 4" before drumming and singing really loudly. The other day, I hung out with Aunt Diane and she taught me how to VERY LOUDLY sing, "1, 2, 3, 4 ROCK AND ROLL ROCK AND ROLL" over and over again which Mommy says is just lovely.

Usually, if I'm feeling musical, I have had to either stick with my drum or when I'm watching the Fresh Beats and want to be like Kiki, I grab my broom and pretend it's a guitar...

...Until now! Grams sent me this 'tar that's all mine!!! It's awesome! I let Mommy or Daddy use my drum and then we can be a band!

Except when Daddy is sleeping. Then, I am allowed to only HOLD my 'tar.

Mommy and Amber

Mommy: Hi, Littlest! How is my KitKat?

Amber: I am doing very well, Mommy... isn't it nice, Mommy, to spend time together? QUIET time together... with just US. Know what I mean?

Chloe (off screen): LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME LA LA LA

Amber: Sigh.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Chloe: Happy St. Patrick's Day, AMBER!

Amber: Christ, what are you wearing now?

Chloe: I look FABULOUS today!! THE SHAMROCKS ON MY LEGWARMERS MATCH THE SHAMROCKS ON OUR SHIRTS WHICH MATCH THE CLOVER I PAINTED YESTERDAY AT SCHOOL.

Amber: Are you drunk? Seriously. Take Caps Lock off.

Chloe: I'm HIGH ON CHLOE. Just kidding. That's a pop culture reference. No, man, I'm just excited! Mommy made cookies last night for me to bring to school for the St. Patrick's Day party in my class. Is your class having a party?

Amber: Oh, yeah. The formula will be dyed green all day. Sure.

Chloe: Are you messing with me, Amber?

Amber: Sigh. Cross your legs, drunkalina!

My Angelic Children

Chloe: 99% Angel, huh? So, I guess that was the 1% that showered our entire living room (including my monkey bean bag chair) with poop this morning, huh?

Amber: Nice hat.

Chloe: No one's asking for your opinion, Little Miss Poops A Lot.

Chloe Post: Sigh.

You know what that is? 

My monkey bean bag chair.

You know who that is sitting in my monkey?

(Hint: NOT ME)

Sigh. It just keeps getting worse.  That kid!

Amber's First Day at School

Look how relaxed she is!

Mommy's Favorite Hand-Me-Down

I'm not sure this should actually count as a hand-me-down. My parents bought this cute Pooh onesie for Chloe and according to my mom, had quite the debate in the store over which size to buy. My mom (like most moms) thinks, "Let me get the most use of this I can - buy it bigger." My dad (like most men) thinks, "Babies are small! Buy the smallest one they have."


Eh, both are right. I agree - buy it a little bigger to make it last longer... but this is tough when the kid is a peanut who is always in the 12th percentile for height and weight (Chloe). So by the time she could wear this adorable onesie (size 3mos - 6mos) without the feet dragging six inches past her, it was too warm to use.

However, my little baby linebacker (Amber) is in the 50th percentile and started wearing her 3mos clothes a week ago. Score for Pooh!

P.S. I know that one of these photos is off-center... but I was trying to get her to laugh and take the photo at the same time! She scowls when she sees the camera, so I was trying to be crafty.
