This little girl is just growing like a weed. She had a doctor appointment last week, and here are her stats:

Height: 32 inches tall (80th percentile)

Weight: 21.5 lbs (20th percentile).

I shouldn't be one bit surprised... I mean, look at her daddy.

She is still obsessed with headbands, the cat, books, and has now added shoes to her obsession list. She loves her shoes. Most babies love being naked... not this one. If I leave her in just a diaper, she will go to her dresser and bring me some clothes to put on her. Then, after I'm done dressing her she says "shoes", so I put on some shoes - even if we aren't going anywhere. Then after her shoes are on, she says "bow" - meaning headband. I mean, of course you need shoes and a headband to complete any outfit. This girl is 100% girl.

Oh, and last week she learned how to open doors. Yes, like our front door... now I need to make sure it's locked all the time so she can't escape.

A few weeks ago, she started saying "no". She definitely knows what it means, and she says it all the time now. It's pretty funny. She is talking like crazy, and is still signing a lot. Teaching her sign language was seriously the best idea ever (thanks Stacey!), because she is so good at communicating and getting her needs met.

And lastly, Chloe got sick last week. I know they are gross, but I had to post these pics because it's just too funny...


She woke up crying around midnight so we go in her room to see what the problem was, and she had thrown up all over herself, her sheets and her blankets. She just looked confused. The pics say it all. So we gave her a bath, and she went right back to sleep and was fine the next day. The evening she got sick, I had fed her a banana and oatmeal... and now (a week later), unfortunately, she refuses to even take a bite of a banana or oatmeal. Bummer, those were her two staples.

Everything else is going great with us... Danny will be done with his first year of med school in a little over a month. I couldn't be more excited, and this means he'll have a couple months off for the summer! It will be nice to actually have a husband around once in a while. Can't wait.
