One of them has certainly grown...

Unbelievable what a difference 10 months makes!

Miscellaneous...

It's been a while since I've updated (for me anyway!) so I will just post some of the pics from our recent adventures. Chase is getting such a little personality - I think he may even be talking back to me at times. He is very verbal, cooing, babbling, and "talking" a ton. He is also starting to really get the hang of cruising. I think he will be walking very soon and then the real fun begins!

Look Ma, I can cruise!

This past Saturday was unseasonably cool so I let Chase do a little exploring out in the yard... Meanwhile, Rigley enjoyed a bit of shade... Still not sure about the "real" grass... This picture is of Chase's monitor. I love watching the little guy sleep. The video monitor may be the best baby invention ever! Last week I took Chase to the water park with his new play friend Alister...Chase has NO fear when it comes to water...Seriously, he was crawling around with the 8 year olds like they should be friends. He looks so determined in this picture!

Another favorite spot...

We went to LA two weekends ago to visit Pete & Katy, to celebrate our 6th anniversary, so Mike could attend a course with a doc, for a little R&R, and to hand out with this guy in Santa Monica...His tap dancing metal dude captured Chase's attention for sure.

I think Pete & Katy look quite comfortable strolling with Chase at the Farmer's Market...don't you?

For our Anniversary, Pete & Katy sent this romantic spread up to our room...THANKS GUYS!!!!!

Could he be any cuter?

I have never done the Runyon Trail so what better time than with a baby....and without his jogging stroller?! We made it anyways and got to check out some pretty incredible views...

Pete, Mike & little girl Zoe! Mike ran the trail and Zoe decided it would be fun to follow him. I cannot tell you the panic that set in when Pete, Katy & I thought we had lost her. We were quite the threesome running all over the trail screaming her name. She had no clue how she scared her mama!

Again, Katy looks quite comfortable with a baby!

More Rythym Than Mom?

I think so!

On The Move!

These days Chase doesn't seem to have any desire to stay in one spot for so long. I think the whole "I can stand" mentality has opened up a whole new world to him! He is also taking swim class which he LOVES...I think he may be my future little Michael Phelps!

Kick - Kick - Kick!Now Flip & Kick!

So Much Fun!

Relaxin... Bye Bye!

Got to meet Nicole's new friend Todd this weekend...we had a blast at Red Rock!

Chase Stands!

Chase has been trying to stand on his own, and has actually made it up a couple of times over the past couple of weeks but today he has officially "gotten" it. As he is now standing, I figured he could start helping me out around the house. Here, you will see, I am teaching him how to sort and fold laundry...

Chase, make sure your sorting by style and color!
