Mommy goes to work and so does baby Chloe! She is Daddy’s number one helper! I don’t know what’s better, the overalls or the headlamp?  LOL!

This post comes a few days late… but that’s what happens when the pediatrician goes on summer vacation and hence our six month appointment was later than usual.  Baby Chloe got her last round of Hep shots and is growing like a weed.  Doc says she’s super cute, but I’m sure he says that about ALL his patients.

Chloe does a great job of sitting although she still doesn’t have it down 100% as she’ll topple to the sides every now and then.  But while she’s sitting, it’s so much fun to snap pictures of her!

The funniest part of her visit though was how amused she was with the sound of the paper on the changing table.  Who would have thought?  Check out this video:

So what’s the youngest age of a baby behind the wheel?  Check out the personality behind that smile!  If I had to imagine what she was thinking at that exact moment, it would be something like “Mommy, can I borrow the keys?”

Chloe took a trip up to New Paltz to meet her new friend, Meghan.

Meghan had only seen baby Chloe via Facetime and was super excited to finally get to meet her in person.  Babysitter in the making!  Meghan was very attentive and we had a great time in the park despite the melodic symphony the SUNY New Paltz college kids were playing in the background. Chloe had her first go around in the kiddie swing and while it was WAY too big for her, she sat up nice and steady and we got a big ol’ smile out of it!

So it was just a matter of time before Chloe got the full Brooklyn Heights pizza experience at one of our favorite pizza joints.  At least our favorite in the winter season when there are no tourists.  Or on early weekdays in the summer when we know we can avoid the tourists.  Basically as long as we can avoid the tourists, we’re happy, ha ha.  Chloe got a nice carriage ride home in Mommy’s baby carrier and while I tried to cover her with the convenient hoodie, Daddy snapped these two great pictures of these BIG EYES staring out through the side windows.  Silly baby.  What am I going to do with her?

You know what the best part of the weekends are?  Staying in pajamas till Mommy and Daddy are ready to get up!  And going to Grandma’s house and going food shopping in all the stores and seeing all these new things, it’s incredibly exhausting to keep up with which is why I crash in the car on the way home (to Mommy’s pleasure).  Here are some pics from the weekend…

Spent Friday with Auntie Tina and Uncle David at their beautiful new home. Didn’t take a dip in their pool because it was a little sunny for Baby Chloe but will definitely take pictures of that when that does happen! But we did get some nice closeups on the lounge chair, even took some with a nice fade. Baby Chloe is just so picture friendly!

As Chloe gets older and her features change, we’re constantly comparing her to see if there’s any family resemblance.  What do you think?  Here’s Chloe at 2 months and here’s Mommy at 2 months… when we go to France in October, we’re going to try and dig up a younger family photo of Daddy so we can compare as well.

Other than the baldness factor, I don’t really know that there’s any more resemblance.  Maybe Grandpa was right and I took the wrong baby home.  I’ll tell you what though, there is DEFINITELY some resemblance to Myrtle the Turtle, let me tell you!
