Happy Birthday to Chloe!!!!!!!!!

Chloe is now a big 2 year old! We got to have her birthday party this weekend and it was so much fun! We had lots of family come and it made it so special! We had Nana, Papaw, Aunt Sissy, Uncle Matt, Camdyn, Gran, and Uncle Danny all come from out of town! It was a full house but so worth it! Chloe got so many wonderful presents and she was so happy with her party! Thank you to everyone who came to the party and to everyone who sent their love and presents that couldn't make it to Oklahoma!

Chloe with her spread! She was in heaven!!!

Chloe blowing out the candles on her birthday cake! She loved having everyone singing to her! She was eating it all up... the cake and the attention!

Enjoying a cupcake... she LOVED the cupcake!!!

Loving on her daddy with one of her new princesses... she got 3 new princesses! and loves them all.

I think this picture is priceless! Chloe is wearing some dress-up stuff that Aunt Sissy and Uncle Matt and Camdyn got her... and she is carrying another princess. After the party died down and everyone went home Chloe put this on and wouldn't take it off! She had a hard time walking in her shoes at first but she got pretty good at it! :) I think this might be one of her favorite presents!! Too cute!
I have been trying to get some more pictures up but the site is too busy and our internet isn't working too great due to bad weather and storms... so this is just a little teaser! I have a lot more pictures and I will try to get some more up later today if the internet gets better!
Thanks again to everyone for all the wonderful presents!!!

Easter continued!!!

we had a wonderful Easter!!! It was a great day! We woke up and found all the eggs the Easter Bunny hid for us. Then we got to open presents from the Easter bunny. The girls loved everything that was in their baskets! After that we got to go to church. It was a really good service. After church we went to our friends house for Easter dinner and another egg hunt! we had so much fun! The girls watching Charlie Brown's Easter movie.... Chloe got a new bink from the Easter Bunny! :)

All 4 girls had matching dresses... we tried to get a picture of all of them... we failed miserably!

The egg hunt!! All the girls loved it but Ireland was the one who liked it the most! She loved look for the eggs and holding all of them! It was a really fun Easter for her!

Ireland and all of her eggs!!! She couldn't look at me because the sun was too bright... but i thought it showed how much fun she was having!

I hope everyone had a great Easter and God bless you all!!!!

Easter!!!!

This was just the start of the maddness that was easter egg dying! Chloe was covered with dye up to her elbow by the end!!! it was so funny and a little stressful! ha ha! But if anyone is wondering how to get easter egg dye off.... laundry soap is the answer!!! just put a little on a towel and get it nice and soapy and then wipe away!!! after that and a nice bath there was no more dye!!!

Here is a look at our much neater daughter!!! Ireland got messy but nothing like Chloe... actually, the most dye that she got on her was from Chloe touching her arm!

Artist at work!

Here is a picture of the girls in their Easter dresses from Gramma King! they look so dang cute! Ireland's hat is from church... she wouldn't take it off for the picture! :)

What the Easter Bunny brought Ireland! It is a sticker book of Princesses and 600 stickers!! For those of you who know Ireland, I think this book was MADE for her!!!

Another picture of them in their Easter dresses! They are yelling "CANDY!!!!!" Chris told them they could have candy after they took a pretty picture... we like to call that positive encouragement... not bribing! :)

Loving the weather!!!!

We found a new park on Post today! I think it is the coolest park I have ever played at! It was a blast! We will be going back there a few times before we have to leave!

This is a picture of the monkey bars... they weren't just bars across.... it was this spiral thing! I thought it looked neat so we took some fun pictures!

Ireland climbed up this thing all by herself... for those of you who really know Ireland, know that is a big deal! She didn't use to be very coordinated and she use to be very timid... but she is getting more use to her body and she is getting much more brave! Chris didn't even have to help her... he was just a little nervous! :) What a good daddy!

Here we are in Medicine Park.... they are looking at the ducks. Chloe LOVED seeing real life "quack quacks" up close! She is so funny when it comes to ducks! She has this weird love for them... maybe its a woobie thing.... who knows!

This is a picture of Ireland feeding the ducks! We had to take french fries from our lunch because we forgot crackers.... but we learned that ducks aren't picky cause they liked them all the same!

Someone's almost 2!!!!!

Chloe got her ears pierced!!!!!!

We were at the mall to see the Horton Hears a Who movie and had to time to walk around... when we walked by claires, Chris just decided that he wanted to get Chloe's ears pierced! So we did it and she loves it! She had been asking to get them done every since Ireland got hers done... but i just didn't think daddy would go for it... but he did and he loves them as much as she does!

After we got them done we went to have some dinner and Chloe feed Chris some guacamole the whole time! She sure is a daddy's girl! I think this is the best picture I have of her earings... I will try to get a better one but she isn't the greatest picture taker!

This is how cute she looked right before I had to hold her down.... thats right.... I had to physically hold her down to get them done! But after she got them done she only cried for about 20 seconds and then she noticed that she had earings and loved them from the start! What a big girl!!!

fun visit!!

Grandma Sherry got to come for a little visit! it was lots of fun!!! we had a lot of fun stuff to do in a short time! but the girls sure did enjoy having her around!

Grandma Sherry got Chloe some new babies for her birthday. I just love watching her play with them! She feeds them and gives them bottles and everything! I think she looks like such a big girls playing with them!

We went to Medicine Park today before Grandma Sherry left for some lunch... the girls wanted to feed the ducks! It was lots of fun! We tired to get a good picture but the sun was too bright so this is what we came out with! Still cute though!

I thought this was a cute picture of Ireland and Grandma Sherry! We sure did have lots of fun and I know that the girls are looking forward to the next time they will see her... even if it will be a long time! :)

all grown up!!!!

Ireland got her ears pierced!!!!!! She LOVES them! She asked her Daddy if she could get them done and he said yes... so we made sure that she got them done before Daddy came home... She is doing soooooo good at letting me clean them this time! She doesn't even cry!
Here she is showing them to you! What a ham!!!!!! We had to be even... had to take pictures of the other ear!
She wanted to make sure that I told everyone she got to pick out the color and that she picked out the blue ones because that is the color of Cinderella's dress... and she wanted to have that color and be like Cinderella because Ireland is a princess too! What a goofball! I love her!
