Happy Halloween!

Sean and Chloe started the day off carving pumpkins and later on we went Trick-or-Treating with Maya, Katie and Pete in their neighborhood. The girls had so much fun, it was really cute to see them together. They learned pretty quickly how the process works!

After a few houses, Chloe wanted to go to Maya's house and eat her candy; Maya wanted to continue shopping for more.

With Chloe's peanut allergy, we had to remove most of her candy, anything with peanuts or made on equipment that processes peanuts or other nuts is off the list. :(

Sweet Two-year old sayings

Today Chloe was eating breakfast and she said "Mommy, I miss you all day."
Then she said "You're the best mommy in the world." I couldn't believe it, how does a two year old pick this stuff up?

This is our morning routine. Daddy gets her, and then she hangs out watching TV (Curious George) in our room.




Bath time, the little swimmer!

"Are you having twins?" I was asked by the waitress at dinner on Saturday night! :)

Hot Air Balloon

Sean, Chloe and I totally missed all of the excitement on our street a few Sundays ago when this balloon landed at 7:30am. Normally we're up by then, but on this particular day Chloe slept in, and so did we! Our neighbor, Debi, called Sean's cell phone but we didn't hear the phone ring.

This balloon took off from Derry, NH and touched down at the beginning of our street. Then they walked the balloon down to the cul de sac and took it down.

Thanks to Debi for the picture!

Halloween Outfit

Aunt Katie found a really cute Mouse costume for Chloe, for Halloween. It has a tu-tu and Tiara which Chloe loves.

We put the costume on her yesterday and she kept saying "I'm a ballerina!" Needless to say she loves the costume and didn't want to take it off.

Krochmalfarms

On Saturday, we went to Krochmalfarms with Maya, Katie and Pete to look for pumpkins, despite the chilly weather. They also have Hay rides, pony rides a petting zoo (goats) and many animals (Pigs, Llamas, Horses and Turkeys).

Chloe didn't enjoy the Pony ride. After smiling while sitting on the Pony, she was "all done" about 20 seconds into the ride. She also wasn't too keen on feeding the goats either. Maya loved every minute of the Pony ride and feeding the animals.



Chloe loved the pumpkins...

Chloe is really talking up a storm these days.

She says things like:

I can't do it..

Momma, come on!

I want to play in Chloe's house

Daddy can fix it


Lounging on the couch watching Sesame Street...


Eating Mara's "Happy Cake" (a.k.a. Pumpkin Whoopie Pies) Mara brought over the dessert and put a smiley face on Chloe's piece. Chloe said "More Happy Cake, please" after she finished hers...

Chloe and Maya - October

The latest pictures of the girls.

They have so much fun together. Usually when they're together, screaming and running is involved.

Chubby Cheeks

Today we had an interesting day. We spent a good portion of the day at Labor and Delivery at Winchester Hospital to investigate an issue that turned out to be fine. We were there for a couple of hours and the baby was monitored for several hours and we had an ultrasound to make sure all was well.

As a result we got to see the boy and he has some chubby cheeks! Just like Chloe had at birth.

Chloe's House

A couple of weekends ago Nana found this great Step2 playhouse at a yard sale. It was supposed to be Chloe's xmas gift but it's too big to hide, so it's an early present. Chloe absolutely loves it. She pretends to call "Nana" and "Mama Bear" from the phone inside. There is a table and chairs, a kitchen with sink, a door and windows. She closes the windows when she leaves the house. It's been torture trying to distract her from this house when it's time to go inside. :)






The dogs feeling a little left out...

She puts on these glasses whenever she uses her toy computer...

More dress up...

Little Ballerina

Grammie sent Chloe ballet shoes and that's all Chloe has talked about for two days. They go nicely with her pink tutu and hat! She wouldn't let me take a picture at first but I managed to convince her.



Then she decided while she was eating to say "Cheese!"
