Sisters... and fast friends

I have a feeling that Chloe and Adrianna are going to be good friends, they already really like hanging out together!

Happy Halloween!!

Well, Halloween has come and gone, and the last piece of candy has been devoured. I don't know who ate more; Steve, Chloe or myself. I'm happy to say it's all gone now though, and we can start looking forward to a holiday that doesn't involve so many sweets. Wait... all that Christmas baking... oh great.  How is this bit of baby weight ever going to come off?? Anyways, here are a few shots of Halloween. Chloe was a "fairy godmother princess". Don't get it twisted!

Happy Fall

Well, I guess that's it. Summer is officially over. We had so much fun with all that sunshine, and it was so nice to be off with my two beautiful girls. Time now though to start thinking about pumpkins and trick-or-treating... Chloe's got a lot of ideas about what she's going to be for Halloween - stay tuned!

One, two... we're off to the Zoo!

I have been wanting to take Chloe to the Zoo all summer, and finally last week, the girls, my mom, and I decided to head across the river to see the animals. I don't know why places like this deicde that it would be a good idea to put a playground as soon as you enter... but that's all Chloe wanted to do the entire time we were there! She wasn't nearly as interested in the animals as she was infactuated with the big slide and the swings at the park.

"So you mean to tell me we just spent 22 bucks to hang out at a park?? No way! We're checking out these animals whether you like it or not!!"

Would you believe these two are cousins??

Big and Small

Our little ballerina

Chloe is taking on a few new activites this fall, including ballet.  She's taking the class with her cousin Holly and a couple other girls we know.  It's really cute to see all these tiny ballerina's all dressed up, running around on their tippy toes. 

I don't know though, somehow I think maybe we should have put her in karate...

Happy Birthday Adrianna!!

Adrianna turns 3 months old today!  And to mark the occasion, she decided to roll over... she was THAT excited about it.  Looks like we may have another early mover on our hands!

We sure are enjoying the newest addition to our family!

It's a GIRL!

On Friday, June 18th, at 8:22am we were blessed with a beautiful little girl! I was so convinced we were having a boy that we didn't even have a girl's name chosen. After 4 days and much debate, we settled on Adrianna Noelle Koga. She is a real sweetheart and initially, we thought she looked like a lot like Chloe (just a paler version).  Day by day though, she's changing - and they look similar...but little Adrianna is definitely her own unique person!
