We have a walker on our hands...4 days before Christmas

So Chloe is WALKING!!!! Here it is 4 day's before Christmas and we have a walker finally.  
She is so proud of herself.  Along with the new adventures of her walking, she is also cutting a whole bunch of teeth.  Chloe is going to have her two front teeth for Christmas (I hope)!!


Today also marks are 1st day of Christmas Break!! Crazy to think that we only have a half a of a year left of school, then summer TIME! 

With the holiday's right around the corner I have to share a yummy recipe I enjoy making.

HAPPY HOLIDAY'S!

Life as a toddler!

Boy are we busy!! Chloe is a busy girl. She is always going :) Life is crazy at times but I would not change it for anything.


Chloe has recently decided she is going to walk....well on her terms only!! Stubborn as can be.  She is to funny.  She will wait until we are not looking and stand in the middle of the floor and take a few steps.  Of course when the video camera is not ready or even this momma!!

1st Birthday!

Our baby girl's 1st birthday bash!! 

Some of the goodies from the dessert table!

Chloe's smash cake

This day was amazing.  We had lots of people there.  I think Chloe enjoyed herself and I know I was one happy mommy!!  We our over joyed with our little girl.  She has changed our life forever.  Happy Birthday to our big 1 year old!

Life is crazy....

So I am dying to add birthday pictures on here but life has been so busy.  Last week grades were due, P.T. conferences for two days and a crazy, busy weekend.  Not to mention, I have to take my Praxis Exam this week over PLT 7-12.  After that I will be certified in almost every area in teaching.  I know I am crazy but why not?!?!

I promise by Thanksgiving I will have birthday and Halloween pictures up and some information about our lil peanut.  So hard to believe that she is 1!!! This time last year she was so little we didn't even dress her up, well maybe a Halloween outfit. 

Mommy's lil helper

Chloe loves to help mom with everything!! She even loves to make a mess!! 

Not much longer will Chloe be walking everywhere.  She is so interested in walking but still gets a little scared!! Crazy to think in 2 weeks we will be celebrating her 1st birthday!! We are so excited and can't wait!!

I caught a picture of her with her two bottom teeth....

I love this little girl!!!

11 months old!!

It's so crazy to think that our little peanut; at one time, is no longer a little peanut.  She is full of energy, love and silliness.  She completes our world and I couldn't imagine what life would be without her in our lives.

1 month until the big birthday bash!! I am slowing getting everything together but man does it take a lot of dough to make it the right 1st birthday bash :) Photos to come soon!!
We are going this weekend to get her pictures done for her invitations.  I hope she does good with them.  Normally it takes every ounce of me to get a good smile at photo time (funny how that works). 

Chloe having a blast!!!

It was a 3 day weekend and let me to you we were having a blast!! Check out what Chloe got herself into over this long weekend.....

You wouldn't believe she didn't feel good!!

 Chloe 1st pair of bib overalls...even pink!!

She loves to crawl in the coffee table..then she hits her head and gets mad

She has any toy you can image:)

Chloe is feeling a little better today but still crabby and fussy.  Hope this shall pass soon once those two top teeth come in.  Poor thing.  She is growing up so fast!!

Ideas...for Chloe 1st Birthday!!

Man Chloe's birthday is just like Christmas time in the Fuemmeler household!! We have so many wonderful ideas to do and get Chloe for her 1st Birthday!!

One thing that I am for sure is her theme for her party!! That's right..
OWLS!!!

Here is a similar idea to what Chloe's shirt will look like!! Such a adorable idea, for such an amazing little girl!!

Here is an idea of her cake!! Want to do something similar to this but with more brown and light pink!!! What do you think?!?!

Man having a girl to plan things for is going to be so much fun!! Let the party planning begin!!

Wish me luck :)

Chloe is almost 10 months old!!!

So crazy to think that Chloe (our little turkey is almost 10 months old in two day).  She is such a happy and loving girl.  I love each and every moment with her.  Well....it's that time again, uuggghhh (school resumes) so that means, a very busy mommy!!!
Took Chloe in today for a few hours to work in my room and believe it or not she did amazing!! I am so glad she loved it.  I was so worried she wouldn't like it or remember it but she did!! 

 She loves mommy's cup with the straw!!

 My 1st pig tail :)

She had her 1st spaghetti meal, she loved it!!

This past weekend we went to the zoo and Chloe loved it.  It was a great family day.  The weather was so beautiful.  Chloe's newest love is animals and everything about them.  Can't wait to go again.  Pictures to come!

Finally..back on!! Our little blessing is now almost 9 months old...

Crazy how time flies and how busy life can get being a mom!!!! I wouldn't trade it for the world and I love each and every moment of it.
