Chloe is now One!

I must admit it was hard not having Chloe here for her first birthday.  But, kudos to Valerie for making it as easy as possible.  We "skyped" on her actual birthday (May 14) so we could see her open the presents we sent.  This is one of the few times I am grateful for technology!



Valerie spent some time shopping a couple weeks before Chloe's birthday.  She liked this hat, and Chloe, well, hmmm.



Valerie made Chloe her own special cake.





At first, Chloe just poked her finger in the cake.



Then she got brave and tasted it.



She liked it, and had some more...



...and more..



...and....well...What an opportunity...CAKE!!!



Aw Mom, why did you take it away?  I was having fun. :)



What do you mean "look at the camera"?  I would rather have some more cake!




Here I am all ready for bed surrounded by most of the presents sent from my loved ones back home in Florida.  Tomorrow will be a big day too.  I hear I have to go for a check up whatever that means.


I found out it was the doctor.  Let me catch up on some of this reading.  I hope I don't get any shots today.  "OUCH!  You didn't tell me I'd be getting 4!!!  Are you crazy?!"




Glad to be back home, and in my "Wisconsin" country clothes.
