Halloween and other fun times!

For Halloween, Chloe dressed up as a butterfly.

We tried to take her around to some of the neighboors, but it was so early that no one was home :(

I did a funky pumpkin carving this year....

Oliver and Chloe with the pumpkin

Chloe was very interested in the pumpkin

Chloe and Oliver "playing" together....as long as each of them sticks to their own toys, it's all good.

Grandma, mommy and Chloe have been doing some baking. Chloe gets really excited about the wooden spoon.

Partners in Crime?

Chloe's uncle Brendan sent us some shots that he had taken of her in September. Look what turned up....

Curious George!

He also sent us this picture, which I absolutely love!

Lots of Firsts in the fall!

We've been busy this fall, but haven't been able to post anything because our camera cord was misplaced. So, here is what Chloe has been up to the last month or so.....

6 month picture with the bear....

Still no teeth, but she's discovered that toes make excellent teething toys.

We had a visit with GREAT grandpa! She thought he was GREAT!

She loves to play with Oliver now. She can be in the grumpiest mood ever, and the minute he pays attention to her, all is wonderful in the world - she giggles so hard!

Chloe had her first trip to the park, and she LOVED the swing the best.

Chloe also had fun with mommy on the slide....oops, Daddy makes the ride look more exciting!

Chloe had her first taste of rice cereal on Thanksgiving Day (with her cute little bib from Great Aunt Karen). We think she liked it (the cereal and the bib!).

She is learning how to sit up on her own, and is pretty much independent now...with the occasional topple!

We did some apple-picking, and to get into the spirit, Chloe wore her apple hat.

All in all, a busy month!

Look out! I'm a fish!!

Chloe had her first swimming lesson today, and she LOVED it! She wouldn't stop trying to eat the water. She was the youngest one there, but I think she was the most excited! She also had an entourage of Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Brendan and Mommy, all taking pictures - we're not excited or anything!



Here is some video of our little fish......



Kick Kick Kick!

Trying to eat the floaty board!

We had a fun time :)

Visit from Grandma and Grandpa!

Chloe had a visit from Grandma and Grandpa this week, and they took lots of pictures!

They brought her a nice big bib to catch all her spit-ups from the Gaspe....

A brief recap of the last few months! Oh how time flies when you're having fun!

Here are a few pictures of Chloe, from birth to 5 months....

First week home!

Two weeks old! (I got the idea to take pictures of Chloe with a stuffed bear from a friend, so that we could see her size relative to something!)

Early Days

A few early pictures from the hospital. March 21, 2008. Chloe was born at 2:23 am, weighing 6 lbs. She was 3.5 weeks early, but she just couldn't wait to meet everyone!

Proud Daddy

Welcome to the Sutton's Spot!

When Chloe was born, I was hoping to set up a blog so that family and friends could watch her grow and change....however, then we were all consumed by COLIC (EWWWW!!) for several months. So, finally I am getting around to this :) Just a little spot to see what we are up to, and how our family is growing and changing.
