Who's Your Sugar Daddy?

We visited a town called Sugar Loaf in upstate where leaves have already turned to thier fancy colors. It was a beautiful day spent with my beautiful family.
Come to papa.

GRAND • Parents

My parents arrived Wednesday night from Korea. It was absolutely wonderful seeing Chloe interacting well with them. I suspect she remembers them from six months ago and was anticipating this moment. Initially, she's usually shy (sometimes cries) when a stranger is trying to hold her but with my mom, Chloe reach out when she first saw her. Then, Chloe started to bust out with all sorts of tricks for them by the following afternoon. She was repeating little words my mom was saying like, "gigi" and "kka kka", also performed her famous butt dance followed by her clapping feet gig, just to name the few. She even seemed like she was understanding our conversations. Immediately, my parents were convinced that we have a genius in the family... of course, along with their two other grandsons. :) Chole was at her most happiest self this weekend. We all had a GRAND time!

Swing Dance

We took Chloe to a park in Tarrytown, upstate New York, where she enjoyed the real swing. She also began to dance these days whenever she hears music, or beat. She definitely got that genes from me, not her dad. :) Her favorite tune, besides her baby Bible songs, are my train song and Andrew's drum beat. My train song and dance can not only make her stop crying instantly, but can have her laughing almost immediately.

FALL in Love

It was a crisp cold autumn day at the mountain. We went apple picking in Warwick. It was a beautiful town but what we enjoyed more was the drive there through the mountains and lakes. As the weather was getting windier, I could feel Chloe's hands digging deeper into me. Oh how I love her so deeply.

Pick a Pumpkin

I know which one I want!

High Five!

Last Monday, Chloe gave me a high five for the first time. Then, she asked for one today. So cool...

How Big is Chloe?

So big!
Chloe responds to me with both of her arms way up. I LOVE this!!! It only took me a few minutes to teach her how to do this. It was amazing how quickly she learned it. Something so simple as this can make me go sO CrAzY about her. I love that we are communicating with gestures now. :)

Capturing the Magic

I had to give her my camera so I could sneak a picture of her with another one. Like me, she goes ga ga over shiny sparkling objects, and has to have it. ; )
My favorite time of the day is her bathtime. These days, she's learned to relax and enjoy her bathtime. As for me, there's nothing more magical than the smell of your own child's skin at the end of the day...
