Baby Chloe







It's fitting that our last post was announcing our pregnancy and this one is announcing the birth of our daughter. If only time moved so quickly between posts...


Chloe Elise Ballentine was born on December 18th. She weighed 7lbs 2oz and was 19 inches long. She is a mellow baby compared to her big brother. At this point in Preston's short life I think I had tried to send him back multiple times. He was a screamer. Chloe is a sleeper- THANK GOODNESS!! Preston loves her like crazy. Every time that she whimpers he rushes to her side, holds her hand, rubs her head, and asks if she is "okay". It is pretty cute. He loves to hold her and to play with her hands and feet. He isn't too jealous yet, granted, he has had both Mommy and Daddy home with him for the last couple of weeks. We will see how things change next week when Daddy goes back to work and Preston realizes he can't have all of Mommy's time.
