So excited to see Cousin Angie on Sunday! And thanks to Angie, we’ve now got a new nickname for Chloe. In her green swaddle and cap, and based on the way she wiggles around all the time, she looks just like a Glow Worm. So we’re calling her Chlo(e)-worm, but she is WAY cuter! I think we’ve figured out what Chloe is going to be for Halloween!
Chloe spent the day with Grandma and Grandpa. Or rather, I should say that Grandpa spent the afternoon torturing poor baby Chloe, keeping her awake and “exercising and strengthening her lung capacity” by making her cry. =0) But she did sleep REALLY well last night because she was up most of the afternoon!
Daddy is giving Mommy a break and bottle feeding breast milk to baby Chloe. I think baby Chloe likes the attention from Daddy. She’s certainly WAY more docile and non-aggressive with Daddy. It’s like a battle every time I try to get Chloe to latch. She’s got such strong arms and legs to push away from me and turns her head with I-don’t-know-what-neck-muscles and then of course when she figures out there’s a boob in the nearby vicinity, she attacks it like she’s been starving to death and there’s a million other babies fighting for it. This crazy little girl… she makes me laugh.
People ask me how I am enjoying my maternity leave… it’s AMAZING! I could really get used to this staying at home business! Although I think I would go stir crazy at some point, but this blog is definitely keeping me entertained and focused. Baby Chloe is only two weeks old and already we have a million pictures… enjoy!
Thanks to all our friends and family that have visited and met baby Chloe! Wish I had been more thorough and taken a picture with all our visitors! Guess that just means you guys will have to stop by again so we can take those pictures! =0)
And by far, the cutest picture yet, courtesy of my CRAZY husband. I think this is going in her high school yearbook for her baby photo submission for sure!
A great collage of the many colorful faces of Chloe from big sister Cecile. Thanks Cecile!
So happy to be home and thanks to big sister Cecile, we’ve got Chloe’s first recorded smile!
I think she’s going to be Daddy’s little girl, what do you think? She is totally going to milk it…
Big sisters Cecile and Emilie and big brother Alex came to visit baby Chloe at the hospital. Say hello to the Richard family!
