Chase is 8 weeks old!

Chase will be 8 weeks old on Tuesday.  We can't believe how much he has grown and how much weight he has gained since birth!  He will catch up soon with the other babies.  It is hard for me to believe that some babies are born as large as he is now!  We are so enjoying him. He has become a lot more active and stays awake for a lot longer.   Chase has begun to smile and grab things.  It is so fun. 

We have found out that Chase has acid reflux and some other stomach problems.  We went to a pediatric gastro specialist and everything is getting much better with some Prevacid for the reflux.  He is like a new baby.  

Jason and I pretty much have had a busy summer so far.  We have been busy taking care of Chase for the most part. Jason is coaching summer baseball.  He has had 2 weeks of camp in the mornings, practice, then a game at night so he has been really busy with that. The summer is an opportunity for Jason to see what they will have for a team for the next season since the seniors have left. Jason has been spending his free time playing golf with his nephew and friends.  The summer is about the only time he gets to play.  He has plans to help his friend coach golf at Bartlett High in the fall.  He will love getting to play with the kids a few times a week.   As for me, I will be teaching 3 days of technology classes to teachers in a couple of weeks.   I need to be better prepared for it than I am if I ever have time to sit down and get ready for it!  I also have made a couple of trips to Saltillo to my mom's and she has came here several times.  I try for her and my grandmother to see Chase once a week since I am off in the summer and can go.   

Here are a couple more pictures of Chase.  My friend Jennifer took all of these this past Friday. The link to her blog is in our links list.
