Two pounds of bologna in a one pound bag.

As you all know, exploiting Chloe is my highest form of entertainment. Today was no exception. Ryan came home early to puke his guts out so we excused ourselves to the upstairs to stay away from the funkmaster.

The devil made me do it. Aunt Meridyth gave us this little gem awhile back and I decided I needed a good laugh at Chloe’s expense.

Meet the newest member of the New York City Ballet. She is a bit of a prima donna!

Chloe rocking the Barbie Unitard....standing room only!

I mean who can’t pull off a Barbie unitard? I know I look exceptionally trim in mine. They are virtually universal in fit. After I stopped laughing at her I took some shots of her messing around in her room. See all you moms out there, you think I put Chloe in a straight jacket every day so she doesn’t mess anything up…not true…..there are toys OUT and AROUND her room.

This shot reminds me of someone else from the back…..who is it? I just can’t put my finger on it….oh yeah…ME!

Squatting shot. Little grunt escaped her lips when she bent over to get her puzzle. I am fully aware that she may hate me some day for these kinds of pictures. I am willing to risk that.

Chloe, just play it cool. You know you look fly. Just hang out by the toy tub and put out the vibe.

That’s it….. subtle!

I think you need to go to the next level of cool. NICE!

How about a few deep knee bends to get warmed up.

Never mind…just sit there and be cute.

Tell everyone peace out Chloe.

She was actually walking around the room with her hand behind her back doing the peace sign. How convenient for me.

Hope you enjoyed every square inch of Chloe. I know I did! This kid is the best.

    Oh how I adore thee. I cannot help but to giggle at every inch of her rolls.
    Secretly I was hoping that was an anti-Barbie punk something or other when I saw black & Barbie. ;) Down with the tall skinny unrealistic blonde!@

    she is just the cutest thing ever! You can totally exploit her with photos any time! I just want to scoop her up and give her a big hug!

  8. 8 Prue Jan 22nd, 2008 at 10:01 pm

    Oh, that poor girl! Those sunnies are way cool! The thing that really got me was that you went as far as to put stockings on AND shoes with the delightful little outfit!

    And, as an aside, hope Ryan is feeling better soon.

    I hope she has some sort of sequin jumper for Saturdays Guitar shredding. Maybe you could make her something - Elvis in Vegas?

  10. 10 donna Jan 22nd, 2008 at 10:54 pm

    Thanks so much for the giggles! She looks great!

  11. 11 Angella Jan 22nd, 2008 at 11:31 pm

    I love it!

    She and Emily are rocking the Toddler Chubb!

    So, so sweet.

    I think I can safely say that Chole is the cutest child I have seen next to my own of course..loveys!!

  13. 13 Amanda Brown Jan 23rd, 2008 at 12:26 am

    That shot of her pudgy rump and thighs from behind made me laugh out loud. What a sweet, rolly, chubster. With total ballerina potential, of course.

  14. 14 Melany aka Supermom Jan 23rd, 2008 at 12:49 am

  16. 16 christin Jan 23rd, 2008 at 10:07 am

    you are the meaniest and also the funniest mom in the world. that kills me. i need to send this post to my mom, because I feel she will get a good hardy laugh out of it - LOVE IT.

    I remember that once, in middle school, somebody told me that my butt looked like “Two squirrels fighting in a plaid bag.” That sounds v. similar to your title.

  17. 17 meridyth Jan 23rd, 2008 at 12:38 pm

    oh my word! LOVE IT! i knew she would rock that little gem when the time was right. it was totally a joke when i bought it, but it looks so stinkin’ cute on her! oh chloe, who can resist you?

  18. 18 Holli Jan 23rd, 2008 at 1:48 pm

    I hope you’re saving up some serious cashola for Chloe’s future therapy needs…that is pure evil! I love it! Her hair is really getting dark, she’s looking more like you every day…lucky girl. And I never got a chance to comment on your last post..i SO miss the Lynchburg frenzy when snow is coming. You’de think the world were coming to an end. Up here they’re like “Leave an hour early and pack some blankets in case you get stranded”…thanks for the concern. The subaru is a beast now that she has her winter tires, best car ever!

  19. 19 Jamie Jan 23rd, 2008 at 2:56 pm

    OMG she is too cute! I am feelin’ the vibe Chloe!

    My girls would go bananas over a Barbie unitard. Seriously anything Barbie, dance, dress up? ALL OVER IT! It’s like crack.

    Hope your hubby is feeling better.

  20. 20 dar Jan 23rd, 2008 at 6:06 pm

    i wish i looked that good in a unitard…

  21. 21 Kaili Jan 23rd, 2008 at 6:21 pm

    It is NOT possible for the little ballet master Chloe to get any cuter, she is over the top adorable!

  22. 22 Jude Jan 23rd, 2008 at 6:41 pm

    I have tears of laughter happening here. That is damn cute! I love the tights - I think they are the piece de resistance!

  23. 23 Julie Nickerson Jan 23rd, 2008 at 9:01 pm

    She is great. My fav is the one of her hanging around the toy bin with her cute little booty hanging out. Girlfriend-Got Back!

  24. 24 Katie Jan 24th, 2008 at 12:08 pm

    ADORABLE! you are an amazing photographer and i have loved all the chloe moments you share!

  25. 25 Kristin Jan 24th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
