The other night, while having a cracker snack, Chloe decided to practice blowing raspberries. This is for you KiKi.

So Ladylike
Sometimes when Chloe doesn't get her way she puckers her lips and makes a sour face. Aunt KiKi has been around on several occasions when Chloe "didn't get her way" and commented that she wasn't making a pretty face.

Halloween 2011
I've gotten a little busy and haven't had as much time to keep up with the blog lately. So, even though it's late, Halloween this year was really amazing and totally worth sharing.
Connor was a lion and Chloe was a pink leopard. Carl and I dressed in khaki safari garb to round out the family theme. (Yes I know we were khaki bee keepers last year and I can't get away with khaki every year, but I think two years is OK)
Getting the costumes on the twins was a battle. Neither wanted to put on their costume and cried like it was covered in acid and I was burning them. Maybe they thought it was the "trick" part.
But as soon as they figured out trick-or-treating, it was a whole new ball game. Of course Chloe picked which part of the statement she wanted to say and to make it clear to neighbors she only said, "treeeaat!" Why even bother with the rest.
Our neighborhood is great for families. Most of the yards were decorated for Halloween and there was a block party at a neighbor's house with a chili cook off. Connor's favorite part of the block party was his bag of Fritos. He also got to have a lollypop that evening so it was The Best Party Ever for him.
Chloe loved trick-or-treating but was totally worn out.
