While I am at it I might as well just post a few pictures of Chloe doing what she does best: climbing. This is what she does in a life sized grocery cart, as well.
On the topic of climbing, Chloe walks up and down the stairs upright and face forward now. She has been for about a month now. I was so worried at first and would always wait at the bottom of the stairs for her. She fell down a couple of stairs twice, but it was on the carpeted part and she was fine. No amount of coercing can get her to change her mind about going down those stairs like a big girl, so we just let her.
She has been given a fair amount of free range around the house now, and she seems happier and less mischievous because of it. We even let Chloe play and watch Elmo (her favorite) in the basement for a couple of minutes at a time while we are up in the kitchen or running to the bathroom.
Speaking of Elmo, Chloe is totally obsessed with him and Sesame Street. I always loved that show as a kid so my Mom started letting her watch it. She gets to watch it every day now and she starts dancing and clapping whenever it comes on. I actually think it is pretty funny to watch, and I love cuddling up with her and flipping it on.
She can almost say Elmo and Big Bird. Chloe isn't too interested in talking, though. She says Mama, Dada, Papa, Dolly Doll (my parents' dog), uh oh, thank you, woof woof, moo moo, and tickle tickle. Her favorite things to do are tickle tickle people, dance, and climb on Griffin. Her tickle tickle is so cute because it is actually sounds more like lithel lithel. She dances to everything from songs on the radio to songs on commercials to songs playing on her toys. She'll stop everything just to dance. Her moves are so cute and usually involve bouncing her butt as she spins in a circle while swinging her arms. Chloe is just so fun right now! Everything just keeps getting more fun as she grows and I'm so grateful for that, because it is easy to get depressed about how fast she is growing up.
