busy week with friends

On Tuesday we started our summer class at The Little Gym.  We got there a little early and Chloe wanted to go in and play sooo bad! She kept jumping up and down and squeeling! After a while she finally sat down and tried to patiently watch the big kids...but then her friends Caleb & Caroline got there! Off the chair and off to play she went! It was so much fun! Chloe's favorite part was the end when the teacher gave her 5 stamps! One on her belly too! On Wednesday we went to Toddler Time at the library where we listened to stories and sang and even made Daddy a Father's Day card.  Afterwards we all went to eat lunch at the church playground! There was a lot of playing and not much eating! Surprised?! Today we went to swim with our friends Ally, Brynn, Molly, Matthew & Jenny but I forgot to take any pictures! Sorry! We have a busy weekend ahead of us with 2 photo shoots, a birthday party and I feel like there is something else...oh yeah! Father's Day! :0

today after church we went to our friend Kristen Smith's new coffeehouse that she just opened this weekend! it was super yummy and oh so cute! I went to high school with Kristen and her brother Sean.  Sean's adorable daughter was there and Chloe loved playing with her and enjoying Mimi's strawberry smoothie! Afterwards we hit up the Dallas Farmers Market where Chloe tasted ALL the samples!! We came home with peaches, mangos and some enormous lemons! Mmmm...time to make lemonade!!! Here are some pictures...and if you're in uptown go visit Crooked Tree! You'll love it!

today chloe and daddy got to watch cartoons and have breakfast without me because I had a photo shoot.  Afterwards we went to the farmers market to get chloe some yummy cucumbers, strawberries and blackberries! Then we ran to Home Depot to get a new doorknob and Chloe got a fancy little apron! We opted not to make the Home Depot kiddie craft because we were in a hurry...maybe next month though! When we got home Chloe was determined to keep her apron on and help Daddy! What would he do without her! :) Tonight our friends the Theauxs came over for dinner and Chloe got to play with her sweet friend Taylor! Here are some pictures!

she is sooo my child!

Thursday we went up to Mimi's school and as we were leaving Chloe grabbed her camera and her Elmo purse to take with us! I had to take a picture because I wondered if she always sees me do that! Then on Friday Chloe got into my purses and was filling them up and carrying them! She tried to carry as many purses and bags as she could and finally gave up on holding Elmo and threw him down! We'll see if Chloe is as much a purse fan as I am!!! :) The signs so far point to yes...poor Daddy!!

a little girl time.

tonight the girls and i got together to see the movie-finally! are we the last girls to see it? maybe...but it was worth the wait!

my big girl.

today we visited mimi at school...chloe played the whole time on the playground with all the big kids...the 3rd graders.  i really think she thinks she is as big as they are! she loved it! 

Caleb & Caroline's Big Party!

On Sunday we went to our sweet friends, Caleb & Caroline's 2nd birthday party! It was sooo much fun! The big hit of the evening was...Elmo! Chloe was so excited to see him-but for the first 5 minutes wanted to just call his name and wave at him...not get too close! Here are some pictures! Afterwards mom & dad watched Chloe and we ran off to dinner and Cats with Lindsay & Lance! It was as good as I remembered it as a kid! 

waiting patiently as she got her face painted
