10 on Tuesday!!

1. Man, it's windy outside!! I about got blown away when I left for my doctors appointment.

2. The doctor gave me a prescription for a painkiller and a muscle relaxer, so I should sleep really good tonight! :)

3. Chase is getting his first haircut this week! He's going to go to Sports Clips with Kyle because they both need their ears lowered. Chase still doesn't have a lot of hair, but what he does has is getting long and starting to curl and look like a duck tail.

4. Chase is crawling EVERYWHERE!! He ventured into his playroom last night for the first time and the look on his face was priceless. It was like a whole new worl to him.

5. Not only is he crawling everywhere, but he is pulling up on EVERYTHING! He is currently obsessed with the TV stand and the Wii remotes.

6. What is so appealing about electrical outlets to babies?? Chase goes straight to them. Once he spots one he picks up speed and reaches right for it. Little Chase is going to end up with a 'fro!

7. Big Easter egg hunt this weekend! I can't wait. Chase will get a kick out of crawling around in the grass.

8. We are STILL house hunting...... This has turned out to be a very long and drawn out process. We don't want to just settle just to be buying a house. We want our first home to be perfect, something our kids can grow up in.

9. I think Kyle's Tahoe is finally starting to bite the dust. The ignition is acting all funny. We're hoping it decides to have a long and painful death. The longer we can postpone having to replace it, the better!

10. Took Chase to Toys R Us last night to get a baby gate. What happened to that place??? Where all the clothes used to be is now replaced with groceries, toilet paper, and laundry detergent! Wal-mart now has a better toy selection than them. We went in for a gate, and walked out with a gate only.

We have a crawler!

Chase's day care sent me this picture this afternoon. He crawled about 15 feet to get underneath this table! My bets are that he will figure out that table leg and it will come crashing down.....
He always seems to figure out how to take things apart, but doesn't put it back together. Such a man! :)

10 on Tuesday

1. Rain, Rain go away! I was a soggy muffing when I got into work this morning!

2. I'm drinking some McD's sweet tea right now and it doesn't get much better than this!

3. Chase is really getting the hang of of pulling up on stuff now. He has started to pull up on our couch and we now have water stains from his drool. That would mean the treatment they put on our couch doesn't work!

4. Chase has his first Easter Party at State Farm next weekend. Going to have his pictures taken with the Easter Bunny. We're hoping he does ok like he did with Santa. He just gave Santa dirty looks, but a giant bunny may freak him out. It freaks me out!

5. Chase's vocabulary has really grown lately. He has been saying dog and his most favorite word is "yeah." I swear he said S**T last night. I hope not!

6. I sure it warms up soon because I cannot wait to get out in the yard and start planting some flowers! First we need to get some mole killer and knock those suckers out!

7. Chase has FINALLY started to crawl, he's going about 3-4 feet at a time!

8. We have decided to get a family membership to the ARC so we can start working out again and take Chase swimming in the indoor pool. Cannot wait to get started burning off this fat!

9. Chase has become an avid Dancing With the Stars fan! His eyes were glued to the TV last night and he just bounces around and claps his hands when they are dancing. And if we stand in front of the tv, he strains his neck to try to see around us. Kyle's not sure what to think about his choice in tv shows!

10. Megan's little Kaiden is having surgery tomorrow, so they are in our thoughts and prayers. Little guy will pull through just fine!

John Deer Baby!

Had to take some pictures of Chase on his Papa's John Deer tractor! By the look on his face, he wasn't so sure what to think about it. If I pretended to honk the horn or said "vroom, vroom!" he would just crack up. Once he found the gear shift, he was determined to make that thing move.

10 on Tuesday

1. Happy St. Patricks Day!


2. The weather is so nice today!! I've got full blown spring fever now.


3. Along with Spring fever comes allergies. My allergies are awful right now. I think poor little Chase is going to have severe allergies just like his mommy. I just hope he doesn't have to get shots every week like me, I won't be able to stand watching that week after week.


4. Chase's daycare is taking advantage of the weather today and are taking a field trip to the park. I hope he has fun!


5. Kyle starts his traveling job next week. Not real happy about it, but the money will be nice. He is not happy about it either, but it was too good to turn down.


6. Our neighbors came over last night to see Chase and they brought him some gold $1 coins. I had never seen them before, so we're going put the cash into his savings account and let him hold onto the coins. Will be nice to see how much those are worth when he's 18 years old.


7. Our neighbors have a horse that is getting ready to deliver a baby horse, so I can't wait to go see it! I have never seen a newborn horse before.


8. Chase still not wanting to crawl. They said he's been standing on his own at daycare without holding onto anything, so he'll probably just skip the whole crawling thing and just move onto walking.


9. Kyle's dad got Chase his first golf club. He'll be going to the golf course when he's 2.


10. Here is a picture I took this morning of our Lil' Leprachaun. I was taking a picture of a moving object with a phone camera, so not the best quality:

Look what I can do!

Chase has started to pull up now and he is quite proud of himself. He has mastered getting up, he just hasn't figured out the getting down part. He either tries to walk and and ends up falling, or just fusses until somebody comes to resuce him. We've had a few falling episodes where his head went crashing against the railing, but he just smiles and goes at it again!



"Let's Get Physical, Physical!!"

I have these fuzzy socks that I like to wear around the house to keep my feet warm, and the other day I was wearing two that didn't match. We decided to go out for lunch, so I threw them off before we left the house and just threw them on the floor. When we got home, I went into the kitchen to get Chase's snack ready and when I came back into the living room I saw that Kyle had put those socks on Chase. He looks like he's ready for an 80's excercise video!

Worless Wednesday (or Thursday!)


10 on Tuesday

1. Ok, not really 10 on Tuesday. Thursday in this case.

2. I have spent the whole week with Chase, was really hard to come into work today.

3. Chase's party decorations are bought and I cannot wait! Still two months away, but I get so excited just thinking about it.

4. This last Saturday night was girls night and boy were there some crazy girls! I have learned that I am not as young as I used to be. At 8:45 I started yawning and was already thinking about going and picking up Chase and going to bed. Pathetic, I know.

5. We got a new digital camcorder, so once I get the hang of how to use all of the technical stuff I will start posting some videos of Chase. He has been such a ham lately. He was being so funny the other day that Kyle and I were laughing so hard we could barely breathe.

6. Kyle is taking a new job, so keep your fingers crossed for him!

7. Going to the Lake with the girls on Saturday and I cannot wait to get my Coach purse!

8. Our puppy Riley is turning 3, Daisy is turning 8, and Kyle's crazy cat Lily is turning 4. You would think we lived on a farm. Oh wait, we do.

9. Kyle is going to a friend's house tonight and I am pretty excited about having the time to myself after I put Chase to bed.

10. Chase painted another picture, I will have to post a picture of that.

10 on Tuesday

1. Might have to force ten thoughts for today. It's one of those days, really don't feel like doing much.

2. My abs hurt like crazy today! I did the Wii Fit and it kicked my butt. First time I've done crunches since getting pregnant.

3. Kyle sure got a kick out of my doing the Wii Fit. He was taking pictures and recording video of me looking like a fool. I'm planning my payback....

4. The past few nights have pretty restless at our house. Not only is Chase cutting his fourth tooth, but he has learned to pull himself into a sitting position and has been doing it during the night in his crib. And then he gets mad that he's sitting because he's sleeping. So I spend most of the night going in there to lay him back down. Over and over and over again.

5. Chase tried a sugar cookie for the first time and loved it! We shared one yesterday after getting home from work. He wanted the whole thing, but so did I.

6. Feeding Chase dinner last night was interesting. I was feeding him green beans and he kept blowing them back out, spraying everywhere. I shook my head no and said "No, no Chase. We don't do that." He looked at me and just kept shaking his head "no" at me. Little stinker already knows how to play his mommy!

7. Chase finger painted again at day care yesterday. I love bringing home something he made to hang on the fridge.

8. I just saw a $209,000.00 ring on Zales website. I can't even fathom being stupid enough to pay that kind of money for a ring. Kind of ugly too.

9. I'm ready to go home and veg out on the couch watching The Biggest Loser. The Bachelor made me mad last night, not going to waste my time watching Part 2 tonight.

10. I'm outta here in 45 minutes.....THANK GOODNESS!
