Five Month Update

It's already hard to remember life without Chloe. She has just fallen right into her own special place in the family. She is adored beyond measure in this house. The adoption was finalized on December 14. After the papers were signed and we were all thanking the judge and shaking hands, Chloe reached her right hand out to the judge, shook the judges hand and said, "thank-you."

Chloe is putting 3-4 word phrases togehter. She tells everyone where to sit and when to sit. She reminds us all to "buckle" when we get in the car. She is very friendly. She tells everyone in Wal-Mart "hello." Chloe is CRAZY about ice cream and chocolate! She is very much into Elmo and VeggieTales right now. She is learning to have good manners and rarely ever forgets a "please" or "thank-you."

A few nights ago, Robert was putting her in bed. She reminded him that they needed to say prayers. So Robert prayed with her. Then Chloe said, "Thank You" and went right to sleep.

Chloe loves music and ipods. She has a cute little pink preschool MP3 player, but she wants the Apple ipod. Her favorite song is "Soulja Boy." It's a rap song that has been very popular recently with kids and teens. She sings, "oh, boy-Youuuuuuuuuu." That's funny for those of you that know the song.


Today Ryan and Kellan were fighting. Chloe started saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Chloe will be 2 years-old on February 20! She can hold up 2 fingers and say, "two." Sometimes though she holds up 2 fingers and says, "peace."

She's a sweety and our best form of entertainment these days. She is close enough to perfect for us! We are tremendously blest and absolutely amazed that God lead us to find each other.
