Chloe

Eric's getting ready for his annual January backpacking trip. While I don't totally understand the need to go backpacking when its freezing cold, he and the other guys seem to have a good time every year. So he's starting to get out his stuff and make sure he's ready to go in a couple of weeks. Chloe discovered daddy's sleeping bag and had a ball playing in it.

In other news, notice Chloe's upper left front tooth?

She chipped a big chunk out of it on Thursday. Evidently not being allowed to eat the play doh you are supposed to be molding at the YMCA's babysitting room is cause to slam your head down on a table. She got a little surprise when she hit the table tooth first. Good news is that the dentist says she didn't hurt the root of her tooth or expose the nerve, so no further treatment is needed. It should also smooth out a bit over the next couple of months. Think that'll tame the toddler temper tantrums? I'm thinking not... Oh well.
