I am very sorry I have not posted in a while; I have been a very busy girl.

I LOVE my new daycare. They follow a curriculum so there are lots of fun things to do and learn.

My teachers Miss Janet and Miss Sarah are so nice. I get to eat lots of differnt foods and sit at a neat table with all of us sitting around it (it is only a few inches off the floor so we can sit down on our own)

I think I told you already but I am in a room with 9 boys.

Mommy asked me two days ago to say Jake..I said Jke. she asked me to say Hunter..I said Hunter (well close). she asked me to say Gavin..I said Gavin. She asked me to say Tyler and I said MWAH. Mommy made a great big smile (I think her jaw dropped too). Tyler likes me. Everytime I drop something at daycare, he picks it up and brings it to me right away. (he he)

Mommy was keeping track of all the words I was saying but she lost count at 45 as now I pretty much repeat everything. New this week was Sarah, Grass, lalalina (ballerina), and something mommy said in the car while driving..she told me not to say it again.

The weather is better so we have been going to the park and taking walks in the evening again.

I cant wait to go to Granmas and run in the grass at the farm.

Mommy has to go to the UK on business travel next month :(

Hope all is well with y0u all.

Love Chloe

Mommy says I am growing too fast!

I am learning lots of new words (cracker, book, off, cat, hi, and more). I pretty much try and repeat what you say but sometimes my tongue gets stuck and it comes out funny, but I try :)

I love to run in the house while looking over my shoulder to see if someone will chase me. I laugh and giggle and get up on my tiptoes-mommy and daddy just shake their heads and laugh. (and then tell me to slow down)

My new thing is I can get up into the chairs by myself and then I stand up and squeal until daddy yells at me to sit down; I think it is a game and get even more excited and when daddy gets up I flop down real quick, get down, and do it all again.

I am starting a new daycare next week. Mommy and daddy really stressed over this one; the new daycare is closer to mommys work and is open later at night so she doesnt have to keep taking time off from work when daddy works late; it is also accredited and is curriculum based vs general play; they are a little more family oriented (there are pictures in the classroom of our families and do things each month that families can do together), they have less days off (holidays, snow days etc), I hope I like it. I met my teacher last weekend and mommy is taking me to play tomorrow for a few hours. I'll keep you posted.

What was that we told you last week?....that I had 6 teeth? Well.....I have 9 now. OWIE!

Guess what else has been going on this week?....Sometimes I go to the bathroom on the potty. Yup...I dont ask to go yet, but mommy puts me on and I go. If I go in my diaper I sometimes let mommy or daddy know that I went (by pointing and walking funny). Mommy and Daddy get all excited (what else is new) :)

I think I might have an ear infection; I woke up today with a 101.9 fever and drainage in my ear. Mommy said she will get me all fixed up.

Eating Yogurt all by myself

I love my baby and feeding her is one of my favorite things to do

Peek-a-boo!~

I hope you guys have a great week!

I have two new teeth; I am up to 6 that have broken through and two more about to. (I have three on top in front and two on the bottom in front and then a big molar on top in the back).

I still use sign language, but my vocabulary is growing; I am also saying bah-bye, peek-a-boo, cat, ball, and baby (which sounds like bah-bah).

I put my own shoe on tonight. (it was the wrong shoe on the wrong foot, but I did it: I have been working on it for a while now). I try to put my socks on too, but not much luck there yet.

My mommy and daddy are planning a trip to visit Grandma, Uncle Scott, Auntie Julie, Uncle Barry, Aunt Ruth, and Cousin Hannah in Floria; I'll keep you all posted.

I am so happy mommy and daddy had those tubes put in my ears; my stuffy nose is almost gone--yup; I cant believe it.

I can hear so much better that I am starting to talk a lot more. Instead of just using sign language I am trying to say bye-bye, thank you, peek-a-boo, more etc.

I LOVE books; mommy, daddy, and nana read to me everyday; sometimes I just like to look at the pictures and turn the pages but I look at about 5 or 6 a day.

I am getting good at copying too; mommy makes funny faces at me when I eat and I try and copy them :) (she will regret this very soon). I like to dance (mommy says it looks like I am doing squats--whatever that is)

I am learning even more body parts and what different animals say.

I hope you all have a great Valentines Day--I'll be in touch soon.

I had the tubes put in my ears yesterday.

Daddy was sick so mommy and I went. I know mommy was nervous so I was such a good girl.
Mommy saw Dr Abrams in the hall at the Hospital when we first got there and that made her feel much better. We really miss her.

I went with the nurse without any trouble. (I think that helped mommy calm down)
The doctor came back after just 15 minutes and said it was all done; he told mommy that there was a lot of thick fluid in there and that it was old. He said it was a good thing we did this and we did it at the right time.

I woke up very cranky; Mommy heard me screaming when the nurse brought me down the hall to her. I was screaming and flailing around and didnt calm down for about 30-40 minutes. Mommy didnt know what to do to calm me, but as the anesthesia wore off I got better.
(Auntie Tina came to sit with mommy and she held me for a while too; and Dr Abrams came to check on me as well :))

When we got home I got sick to my tummy once but then was good.

I went back to daycare today after almost a whole week of being out; it was fun to play with my friends.

Hope you all have a great week!

Thank you again Dr Abrams!!

My tubes are scheduled to be put in next Tuesday 1/29/08.

I can now name some of my body parts: eyes, mouth (I open and say ah as well as point), belly, feet, hands, and nose. Thank you Meredith for my cool book.

When mommy asks me what a bear says, I put both my arms up over my head and say roar; she thinks it is cute and makes me do it over and over :)

Daddy took some video of me so you can see how good I walk and run but has to edit it before he posts it, the file is too big. So keep an eye out.

Have a good week!~
