Chloe turns TWO tomorrow. Can you believe it?
Her hair is getting long and beautiful, and I've had fun playing with it. She always pulls everything out, though. I love how elegant she looks in this picture.
I even did 2 french braids one night after a bath.
Which made her hair really wavy the next day. It was super cute.
She loves to play with Levi. Mostly they like to eat snacks together. Whenever he gets something to eat, he gets one for her too. You can't help but adore someone like that.
Outside is her favorite. I especially love to watch the big boys play with her.
She loves to "GO," which reminds me of me when I was little. Sometimes she gets sad when someone leaves her behind, but we appease her by telling her to say "bye" at the window. It actually sounds more like "Die!" when she says it. The other day I was having a relief society meeting, and when she was ready for the ladies to leave, she waved to them and said, "Die!"
She's gone back to loving baths again. Now she throws fits when it's time to get out. She asks to take a "baff!" about three times a day, but I think once a day is plenty. We are having a drought, after all.
She loves "helping," especially cleaning. I have to keep her wipes out of reach or else she will take them all out of the package and wipe down the whole house. She also loves to clean her babies, put diapers on them, wrap them in blankets and put them down for a nap. It is so stinkin' cute! When she is too tired to go to bed, I talk to one of her babies about her. Chloe stops crying, stares at her baby, and answers when I talk to her through the baby. It sounds ridiculous, but I learned about it in the book, "The Happiest Toddler on the Block" when Tyler was 2, and it is such a great way to help an out-of-control toddler.
Chloe loves her daddy. She is sad when he goes to work (thank goodness for the window "die" thing), yells, "My daddy home!" whenever she hears the garage door open, and literally squeals with delight and jumps up and down when he walks through the door.
There is just something special between these two. I've heard the phrase "daddy's girl" before, but I didn't really understand it until we had Chloe. I can't help but think that this is boosting her self-image and preparing her to choose a good man who will treat her like a queen one day.

What a beautiful, fun little girl! Elizabeth is a Daddy's girl as well. He can still get her to talk to him when she's upset and it is so sweet to see, even when she's older!
