Crawling, Fantasy Football and Green Day?

So Chloe started crawling this week. WOW! She has become mobile! We are now proud owners of a baby gate, (professionally installed by me, thank you), and many, many, many outlet covers (which by the way are VERY hard to get off!) Yes, I know that is the point! Anyway......

Chloe and Chris accompanied me to my Fantasy Football draft last week. She played, slept a little and even had an alcoholic drink! (I'm talking about Chris! Jeeeezzz) Chloe had a great time also! She got many compliments. I have posted a few pics here.

Lastly........

Now that the Olympics are over, I remember one of the announcers always commenting on just what is it that Michael Phelps was listening to on his Ipod? Well, we never found out. So I will tell you what I am listening to. My current album of choice is Green Day - American Idiot. Very good rock album. (If it keeps you moving while cutting the grass or vacuuming the house, it is good in my book! Seriously, check it out!) What are you listening to? Let me know!

The Christening was a success!

So the Christening was a huge success! My in-laws were up from Florida and had a great time with the baby. Here are just a couple of pictures. I will post more soon. Thanks to my father in- law for these. Here are just a few highlights of the day.....

Chloe loved her little white shoes so much she refused to get them dirty by actually wearing them.

She kept insisting that she wasn't Amish!

Thanks to Chloe's Godmother for making an awsome cake (mmmm homemade frosting)

Thanks to Chloe's Godfather for having to move his truck more than once. (That darn single lane driveway!)

Great food back at the house!

Good times! Good times!

Thank you for all that were able to come, and for all that weren't, thanks for the best wishes!

Time for a Christening and In-Laws!

So Chloe will be Christened on Sunday! My in-laws, Julius and Maria Nagy are coming up from Florida tomorrow for the occasion. Boy are they going to be surprised when they see how big she has gotten! Here is a picture of Maria with Chloe back in February. (Yup, sleeping again!) I will be sure to have some pictures of the special occasion posted soon!

Batman! Finally!

So I was finally able to go see the new Batman movie today! Excellent movie! Worth they hype! Heath Ledger's Joker makes Jack Nicholson's Joker look like a choir boy. So, I said that I saw it. Well, it was a trade off you see.....

I watched Chloe yesterday while Chris was finally able to use that gift certificate that she received for Mother's Day to have her nails done. Well, Chris insisted that I go see the movie today while she watched Chloe. What a great wife! She still wants to see it. Maybe Netflix, maybe not, but I can tell you that I will see it again!

I will also say this. This is an intense movie and not for the young. Yes, Batman is an icon, but do not bring your young children to this movie thinking that you are going to see the cartoon like images that were the mainstay for the TV series. Yes, it appears that you can go to the local Wal Mart or Toys R Us and buy any toy imaginable linked to this movie, but remember, you could have bought those same toys for the very "R" rated Alien in 1978. I am not preaching, just giving an observation.

Anyway, I can't post without talking about Chloe! She has her voice back and is still working on those teeth! Here's a picture of her taken just tonight after her bath!

What a baby!

Shhhhh

Babies sure do sleep a lot! Shhhhh...........
