Holladay Ladies.

2010-10-07T23:22:00.000-05:00

I'm TWO!

2010-10-07T23:04:00.000-05:00

She knows the routine..

2010-10-07T22:58:00.000-05:00

Mommy's routine that is ;)

Curious Fingers...

2010-10-07T22:51:00.000-05:00

Newness!

2010-10-07T22:24:00.000-05:00

New couch/sleeper and new bike! First time :) She was having a blast riding her bike up and down the driveway, and playing peek-a-boo in her new princess couch.

She loves to help mommy with work :)

July 28, 2010

2010-10-07T21:44:00.000-05:00

First sight of a ponytail!

Non-Traditionalist

2010-10-07T21:41:00.000-05:00

Here Chloe loved pool time, but had more fun riding it like a pony and sunbathing on it :)

It's been THREE months!

2010-10-07T21:18:00.000-05:00

Sorry my last post was three months ago! I'm going to start making weekly posts with up-to-date news. I hope you stay tuned...

Here's some pictures from July of Chloe.. I will start there and keep adding.

A-Pane

2010-07-03T22:56:00.000-05:00

Found these cute shots of Chloe when we were flying on the airplane a while back. Her expressions are priceless.

Trunk Show (continued)

2010-07-03T21:57:00.000-05:00

Here's my princess laying on the display bed (I think she's the best accessory) and the bedding actually sold that day! She also sat like a big girl and watched Mickey Mouse. Thank goodness for modern technology.

Chloe at Chiffoniers

2010-07-03T21:44:00.000-05:00

The trunk show was wonderful, and I got some candid shots of my cutie pie.

2nd Graduation

2010-07-03T20:57:00.001-05:00

This was Chloe's second graduation from the Little Gym. She loved going, and learned so much! She is now a little monkey and hangs from everything. I'm so proud of her for being a little star. I know she is going to miss Mrs. Ashley, Chloe has loved her being the teacher.

Sink Bath time

2010-07-03T20:49:00.000-05:00

She's growing up

2010-07-03T20:39:00.000-05:00

Here's Clo putting on her shoes by herself, and also her bathing suit (almost)... Love her.

First time to paint!

2010-05-09T20:35:00.000-05:00

Chloe and her animal cookies (she wouldn't part for the pics)

2010-04-11T00:03:00.000-05:00

So fun :)

2010-04-10T23:57:00.002-05:00

Ponytails and the pool

2010-04-10T23:55:00.000-05:00

Pump it up!

2010-04-10T23:39:00.000-05:00

This was Chloe's first time to be invited to Pump It Up. It was a blast, and I think I had just as much fun (maybe more).

Here are some pictures.

Birthday in Houston

2010-04-10T23:20:00.000-05:00

Love these girls. We've been besties since 6th grade (some of them were even close before that...) I love you ladies, and loved my birthday. PS. If it's not your birthday... Don't eat my cupcake (sabrina) or get in my picture. JK.

Birthday in Fort Worth

2010-04-10T23:13:00.000-05:00

I love these ladies! They had a surprise birthday party for three of us ladies that were having a birthday :)

Heather hosted, and the sushi and company was amazing.

First Day of Spring and the Many Faces of Clo

2010-04-05T22:09:00.000-05:00

Make a wish my sweet angel.

2010-04-05T21:54:00.001-05:00

This is what it takes

2010-04-05T21:45:00.000-05:00

Hey, a girl has to take a shower every once in a while. So, in order to do that... I give Chloe the makeup bag to play with. This time, she found out how to open it :)

First time with side walk chalk...

2010-04-05T21:35:00.000-05:00

I love how she notices the details.. just like her mommy. The artist is coming out.. woo hoo!

My Mini-Me

2010-04-05T21:30:00.000-05:00

These photos were actually not staged (unlike some of our pictures). She actually put on my high heels and started sweeping the floor. I was stoked that my camera was nearby... If the pictures seem blurry, it's because I was laughing so hard.

It's Snowing (Feb 23rd!) with Nae-Nae :)

2010-04-05T21:19:00.000-05:00

Sunglasses from Bea Bea

Sing Hallelujah (Pics from DC in Feb)

2010-03-31T22:19:00.000-05:00

Chloe is so sweet, and sings hallelujah with her hands in the air... She must have seen mama at church like this. She is my angel :)

Chloe at The Little Gym (January)

2010-03-31T22:04:00.000-05:00

Typical Shower

2010-03-13T21:22:00.000-06:00

When I'm in the shower, Chloe is usually in the bathroom with me. Usually, she likes to read a book and/or play with my make-up bag. Today, she not only figured out how to open it, but how to apply it. She did a pretty good job. The eye liner is by her eyes, and the lipstick on and in her mouth!

She loves flowers

2010-03-13T17:50:00.000-06:00

Death by Chocolate

2010-03-13T17:47:00.000-06:00

So, while I was up in the DC area... we went to Georgetown Cupcake. Seriously, I could eat these cupcakes until I am no more. They are so so delicious. Thank goodness, we don't have anything like this in The Woodlands. It could be the end of me... or at least my figure :)

Lovin Mama's Shoes

2010-03-13T17:42:00.001-06:00

The cuteness continues

Chloe makes a great model!

2010-02-07T20:54:00.001-06:00

I love when I have some new children's products, and Chloe can be my model. It sure saves me time and money... and she's super cute. So is Jackson! They have such a sweet interaction with each other :)

Heather and Jonnie's Wedding

Sleeping Beauty

2010-01-16T13:54:00.002-06:00

This picture is not great, but I was trying to capture the moment, and forgot my flash. Chloe fell asleep sitting up and slouched over in her crib. As soon as I snapped the picture, she woke up! I just thought it was too cute to not remember this moment.

Mickey Mouse House Boo

2010-01-16T13:52:00.002-06:00

Chloe likes to stand inside of her Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and Say Boo. Then duck down so I can't see her. It's adorable!

I love this picture- goldfish remnants

2010-01-16T13:49:00.001-06:00

This picture was taken in July 2009, and I just think it's so adorable. How she has grown!

Money on the Tree

2010-01-16T13:46:00.003-06:00

From the time I was a little girl, Nana and Pop Pop have put money on the tree for Christmas. Each dollar had a unique ribbon around the center for each child. We each had our own color. I remember some years that my brother must have been color-blind, because somehow he ended up with my ribbon color...lol

This year, was Chloe's first year to see the money on the tree!

Thanks Nana and Pop Pop for this great memory.

2010-01-16T13:23:00.003-06:00

So, Unkie Jay comes into town, and gets a million cuddles. I have to work hard for these suckers!

Chloe's Kitchen!

2010-01-06T19:58:00.007-06:00

This is what Chloe got for Christmas. Now she just needs pots/pans and play food :)

Ms. Manners

2010-01-06T19:55:00.003-06:00

Chloe knows sign language, and was asking her mommy "please". How can you say no to this?

I just had to add this picture. The advent calendar has been a tradition in my family, and Chloe was all about it. She reminded me daily that she needed to open a fold to get her piece of chocolate.

Houston, it's SNOWING!

Thanks again Caryn!

Clo and Her Kitty Friend

2009-11-30T22:00:00.002-06:00

Every time we go see Aunt Heather, we get to see the neighborhood kitty. Chloe loves to visit with her. She even sits at the front door, waiting for us to come out and play.

DC Trip Continued!

2009-11-30T21:53:00.002-06:00

Chloe and her Baby Grand Piano

2009-11-30T21:34:00.004-06:00

She LOVES this thing.. It was a birthday gift from her Papa Gibson, and Nana and Pop Pop! Here is Chloe enjoying herself.

One of these pictures I took when she decided to stand up on the stool, before mommy could come get her. Sneaky girl.

Children's Museum

2009-11-30T20:58:00.004-06:00

Here are some pictures of Chloe at the Children's Museum with the Sumrall Crew. This was taken right before her birthday on September 21 st!

Enjoy.

December is already here!

2009-11-30T20:48:00.003-06:00

Hi everyone,

It's been so long since my last post. It seems that blogging is another thing on the "list" and really gets neglected. I am going to try and keep it up, as I know so many of you love to see what's going on over here (mainly with the sweet clo baby).

Devon and Heather are now both married! I can't believe how the times are changing. Cole and Roman are just growing up and getting so big. I will finally be posting some of Chloe's birthday pictures (yes, from September) and post some pictures of our upcoming Christmas Party hosted by the Mistrettas.

Chloe is 14 months, and is no longer nursing. Yes, I nursed for 14 months!! She is now going potty in the potty (at bedtime) and can say mama so sweetly. I just can't believe my baby girl is growing up so fast.

Kevin is at DLI and is learning Ethiopian, and is top in his class. He just seems to have a gift with languages.

Rosebud Lips is doing so wonderful... more to come later.

I love you all. Thank you so much!

Some random pictures from the last few months...

2009-11-30T20:34:00.002-06:00

Chloe loving her juice

Helping mama before a photo shoot

Loving outdoors!

Loves to hang out with Brent and Brayden

"Pop"

2009-11-30T20:14:00.003-06:00

This is probably Chloe's favorite word... "pop"

This means she wants a dum-dum pop. She has realized that they are above the refrigerator, and upon walking into the kitchen will immediately point up to where they are. Just to give her mama a little hint. She is so sweet these days. I just love her more every day.

This picture is when she found some "pops" at her Aunt Heathers house, and pulled them out of the pantry. The bag weighed almost as much as her, so she proceeded to drag it to where I was at, and lift it as high as she could. Then came the cheese grin.

I love how she sleeps

2009-11-30T20:08:00.002-06:00

This is Clo's new way of sleeping...

My little stinger :)

2009-11-01T14:29:00.004-06:00

Travis and Hillary got married!

2009-10-29T16:53:00.008-05:00

We went to the beautiful wedding in Round Rock, and it was picture perfect. I don't have any pics of the bride and groom, but I do have some of the little munchkin and Elexa. More pictures to come...

On the way home...

2009-10-08T20:38:00.005-05:00

I found some abandoned buildings, and they had some great spots. I thought that since Chloe wasn't sleeping anyways, we might as well stop and shoot some pics. I'm so glad that I did.

Clo Playing in the Rain!

More of September...

2009-09-29T20:35:00.005-05:00

I LOVE these pictures of Chloe. They make me laugh so hard. Chloe was playing with Kinsey, and was knocked over by her numerous times. The picture where her nose is on the ground, is when Kinsey knocked her over, and quickly passed her up and faced her. She is still in mid air turning over...

She makes me smile so much. My funny little girl.

"What about my picture mom?"

Chloe always goes with me when I take pictures of little ones, and she is such a great helper. She makes it even more fun!

Sweet thing

2009-09-06T22:41:00.003-05:00

My sweet little girl is growing up so fast! Time flies when they are young, so I'm learning more and more to treasure these moments.

I'm Back

2009-08-21T22:30:00.002-05:00

So.. It feels like Chloe has grown up so much since my last post. This week she said, "papa, bye bye, up, and uh-uh (for uh-o)! My big girl walks all around the place and is even bending down to pick stuff up while standing!

She did have a big boo boo this last week, and fell flat on her face and gave us a scare. I thought that she may have broken her tooth, but we were assured by the dentist that the tooth is just perfect. I guess I will have to tell her about her first trip to the dentist at 10 months old!

Work is going great, and it's picking up so much nowadays! I'm so excited and feel very blessed to have such great friends that help me out with my business.

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks. Tomorrow I will be posting some new videos of Chloe (including the one where she fell on her face).

Thanks to mama

2009-08-13T20:07:00.003-05:00

I decided to start a slimming down process today to lose my baby weight. The thought of sewing her 1st birthday outfit, jump started my thinking...

Tonight I swapped the chocolate mint cookies for a fruity almond milk smoothie. Chloe loves this whole idea of mom slimming down. She even joined in on the smoothie.

Sweet Nothings...
