April 24, 2011 Easter/Tulip Festival

This week I was putting Chloé to bed.

Me:  Chloé do you know where you blanket is?

Chloe: Yes.

Me: Where?

Chloe: It's lost!

Tulip Festival! 

Most beautiful day!

I think everyone had a good time.

Daffodils too!

 Check out that hair. Alfalfa.

I may have been tickling them.

Too much love.

House inspection.  Front yard.

Left is the kitchen, right is the living room and if you put them together this is how it is in real life.

  I hurt my back this week.  We NEEDED a bed.

FULL week but we had a lot of fun.

Rex and Chloé Dancing.

Rex has been so vocal.

Chloé loves Tangled.  A few days ago she was pretending the red chair was the horse from tangled and she is asking him, with the broom to his throat,

 how he found her and if he was after her hair.  

The part I didn't get on film but was adorable. She was pretending she had the guy from the movie wrapped in her hair to the chair.  Chloé pretend pulled him up with her pretend hair, like the movie, while talking to him in her stern voice.

"Super happy face"

Classic Chloé story: "You forgot something....my panties.  They're bunchy,"  complained Chloé.   I was getting her ready for nap put a diaper on and forgot to pull up her panties over her diaper.  However, I managed to get her stretchy pants up.  Needless to say, she was less than pleased with the service.

Rex eating the ball. Look at the size of that mouth.  He may be my child.

I have been telling the kids the story of three little pigs.  When the huff and puff part happens I blow, and it was cute Rex joins in now.  He is picking up on EVERYTHING!!! 

Rex has been standing all the time but I never get a picture.  This is Dad trying to bribe Rex to stand.

Rex eating Red Vines...

and enjoying it.

  Rex after he eats Red Vines.

After Rex is done eating he has been saying all done and doing the sign.

We have been gardening and made a raised square foot garden yesterday.

Love tomatoes

Look at the lines

Phone talkers.

There is a game on the ipod called Dress Chica, and Chloé LOVES itThere are all different clothes and accessories. She makes a zillion of these a week and I thought I would share a chica she has dressed.  

Dri was doing some metal work this week, and this is Chloé watching. We are missing Dri in a big way, but know she is having fun. Chloé made her "grumpy face," and said "I miss Dri!"

Mike has been gone a lot this week...and this is Rex reunited with Dad.

So snuggly with the animals lately. He has also been standing for periods of time, but I can never get a picture.

Big

Bigger

Biggest smile ever.

Another big smile. This week we have been trying to get a house and we have two good choices that haven't gone through yet.  So, as you can imagine, we pray about getting a house regularly.  Chloé, after praying, stated "Oh NO, we didn't pray for the groovy house!"  The groovy house is her vote...and Dri's.

This week Chloé stood behind a stool and with both hands on it said "Brother and Sisters it's been a hard, hard day."  A few times.  I just thought, and yes, she just listened to General Conference.
