a camping we will go


thats right...camping! those of you who know me, know that I AM NOT a camper. growing up my dad would put our tent up in the backyard and me, my dad & sister would haul out the tv, nintendo, snacks, etc and "camp". Nate, on the other hand, grew up camping with his family ALL the time...like for real camping. So Nate has been wanting to take me camping for a long time so I finally decided to surprise him with a camping trip for fathers day. Okay, maybe I should call it a "mini-camping trip" but still...for me...it was camping! we went to The Vineyards Campground in Grapevine...a whopping 10 minutes from our house & went for only one night...baby steps right? But guess what...I did it & I actually enjoyed it!! And best of all...Chloe LOVED it! She kept looking at us saying, "I camping! Daddy, I really camping!!!" Oh she melts our hearts...just like those tasty smores! :)


peeky boo!

see-see sasssy

it was time for another bang cut so we were off to "see-see sassy" with Mimi & Lindsay! Chloe got her "thumbs painted" and her hair cut and then was ready for prom! seriously? i wanted to tell the lady..."hello! she is TWO years old...she doesn't need an updo....or sparkle hair spray...or sparkle stars on her face...because we are headed home for a NAP!!!!! :)
Oh well...Chloe felt like a princess so I guess it was all worth it!! :)

sunday night swim party

last night we had a yummy dinner at lance and lindsays and then swam. while we were drying her off we heard the ice cream man so we threw a diaper on her & raaaaaaan outside! chloe hadn't ever seen the ice cream truck and she was sooooo excited! she had a hard time deciding on which ice cream she wanted, but finally settled on a "dorda" (dora) pop. She totally loved it and made one big ol mess!















taylor turns 2!

on Saturday we went to Taylor's second birthday! Chloe had a great time playing with balloons, decorating her cupcake...and of course...eating it!
