French food

mmmmm, Gamma and Grandpa's postcard from Paris is très délicieux

Give a hoot!

Hi mama. Do you like my first drawing? I want to be just like dada.

LA Girl, part 1

Last weekend we zoomed down to LA for Don's art show and UP premiere. 

Of course we stopped along the way at Andersen's Pea Soup.

Peek-a-boo Bunny!

Chloe promptly enjoyed her baba upon arrival....

ahhhh, relaxing after the long drive. 

a quick dip in the pool.

and then some frolicking time in the hallway before it was time to put on our party dresses for UP. Chloe is wearing her darling new hairclip from Crewcuts. 

Hobnobbing with Uncle Jonas at the UP preparty at the Roosevelt Hotel

and walking her first red (green) carpet! 

Balloons galore! Chloe's dream come true. 

Celeb sighting with mama. There's Tia Carrera to the right of Chloe. 

Chloe loved this balloon Kevin.

Then we were off to Don's art show. 

Can you find Don signing books at the table alongside Scott? Lou and Nate are somewhere in there too.

happy mother's day

to my mama holding the one who made me a mama

While mama's away....

dada and Chloe will play! 

Chloe enjoyed a weekend with Dada all to herself while I was in DC for a best friend's baby shower. Lucky girl got lots of books read to her (I'm guessing hundreds, she loves a good book), and was smothered with fun and love. Here she is eating some of her tasty snacks. 

and watching her favorite show Miffy alongside her very own plush Miffy and Dug from UP

of course her orange horsey guy had to get on in the action.

Chloe is getting very good with the TiVo remote, oops, we're creating a monster! She grabs the remote and points to the TV demanding, "MIFF, MIFF!" How can we resist when she sings and dances to the opening song??

I miss you mama!

Hello mommy?

FRONT FACING

"I'm so happy to be in my new Maxi-Cosi big girl carseat!"

Now Chloe can see where we are going instead of where we've been!

Btw, How cute are her sneakers? Did you know H&M has the cutest baby stuff?

note the nifty ba-ba cup holder
