3 Months

Chloe Brooke, at 3 months we are getting to hear some giggles, getting lots more sleep at night, and enjoying your cheerful personality!



Kate all of the sudden looks so grown up in this pic!

Ella is a around 5 months in this pic, but Chloe is definitely looking more and more like Ella did. They share the same beautiful brown eyes and darker hair. Chloe is by far our chubbiest baby, and it is so fun!

November?

Such beautiful weather these first few weeks of November. The girls got lots of outdoor play time. This day was snacks on the front porch.



Now it's time for sweater weather, and I love it!!! Time to break out the boots!
