Cute Nightly Prayer

I found this on another blog and thought I would post it here so I can remember it.
I love the prayer that Jen from Mommay's Mayhem taught her children
I think I am going to try to teach this to Chloe.

Thank you Lord for the day I had
Thank you for my mom & dad.
Help them take good care of me
God bless my friends & family.
Help me sleep well all night long
Guard me with your angels strong
When I wake up, on a brand new day
Help me love & learn & play. Amen.

Poor Sick Baby Girl

Chloe had her first virus yesterday. She woke up early Sunday Morning (3:30 am) throwing up. At first we thought it was food poisoning but we found out that my niece and my Mom had it too. She got in bed with us and pretty much threw up every half hour during the night. It was so sad and pitiful. She ended up getting sick about 25 times before it was all over. By Sunday night she was finally keeping liquids down. Praise Jesus!

She slept last night from 9 until 8:30 this morning! She was tired. Today she is feeling much much better. She still doesn't want to eat but she is keeping lots of liquids down so that is good. I hope and pray that this doesn't happen again for a long time!

Calling Daddy....

Chloe has a new "skill" that I think is quite humorous! The other night I was trying to get Ryan to come into the kitchen with me and Chloe. I was calling his name. Suddenly there was a cute little redhead yelling "RYAN" I almost cracked up. She was going to the back of the house just a calling his name.

Of course we laughed...bad idea. Now she knows that we think it is funny. She does still call him Daddy most of the time but tries to entertain us by calling for her Daddy by name! RYAN....RYAN...RYAN....

Carving a Pumpkin






Just one of the Dolls

Chloe loves dolls.. She is a girl after her Moms own heart! We have lots of them. Several of them were actually mine when I was a little girl. Here are some pictures of here playing with her dolls and watching Little Bear with them.Kissing her baby (this was one of my baby dolls)

Looking at my friends

Watching "Little Bear" on TV

Kiss, Kiss, Kiss

Serious Chloe

Forgive her mismatched clothes. She was only half dressed. We were looking for her matching shirt.

Chloe-Bug the Bumble Bee

I can't believe we haven't posted anything since September. Where did October go? Being a youth pastor has added a bit more to our plates but we are getting into the swing of things quite nicely. Ryan is loving his new job and I am still loving mine. I have started to do a little bit of "school" with Chloe. Yes, I know she is only 17 months old but it is never to early to learn your colors and shapes. She loves art time. I will have to post pictures of some of our projects. She also loves books. She brings me books to read to her all day long. We are having a great time.

Youth ministry is AWESOME! Ryan is a natural. I am really enjoying watching him step into the ministry that God has been preparing him for. The kids love him! We have our first trip coming up this month complete with a lock-in at the church. We will let you know if we survive.

Well we don't get too into the whole Halloween thing but we do enjoy Fall, pumpkins and dressing Chloe up for Oct. 31st. This year she was a bumble bee and she was the cutest one I have ever seen.


Here are some pictures. More to come later.
