Just a Picture....

I took this picture of Chase when we were sitting in the driveway the other day....too cute not to share! 

Spring Break

We had a lot of fun over the break. We watched a lot of basketball, ate too much, and had a lot of fun family time.

Monday, my mom brought Chase home from the weekend and my cousin Kyle to go to Incredible Pizza. We took my nieces with us also. Kyle's birthday was yesterday, but we celebrated early with the pizza, games, and a cake. Kyle lives in Saltillo, where I am from in MS.

Chase ended up with several bumps and bruises after the week. He spent the first weekend at

my moms and a couple of nights at Jason's moms where at both places he bumped his head pulling up, then on Sunday he got a carpet burn from falling off a tiny chair he was playing in. The bad thing is that all of the bumps are in the same spot on his little head! He is totally accident prone!

We also went to Jason's game on Wednesday to get some sun! Chase is still not so fond of the grass, but he did try to crawl in it a little bit when Jason put him on

the field. He did like to be pushed around in the stroller now and then and he played on his blanket for a little bit. It was such a great day that day !

Chase got to go to the park one of the nice days, but he wasn't much into it this time. He was hungry and sleepy so we didn't stay long to say the least.

To end the week, I went roller skating with my nieces and my sister-in-law. It was quite hilarious and I am just now not sore anymore, but I didn't fall one time so I was proud! My niece thought I was a good skater, which is even funnier! The most weird thing I did (thanks to my sister-in-law) was get a Mystic Tan. I look really tan and it is UV free so it safe, but that little booth you have to stand in is weird and it is the coldest blast of mist I have ever felt and on all 4 sides of my body. I have 2 more times to go and I would for sure do it again, but it was COLD!

Jason and I had the whole day Sunday to spend together with no baseball or other plans. We finally got the flower beds in the back yard under control. We also got our cars cleaned up and they felt like a brand new cars! Spring break was great, but not long enough! We got to make a lot of memories with Chase that will be so special in the years to come!

What a great weekend!

We really had a great weekend!  On Saturday, I took Chase to the park and let him swing for a bit.  It was way windy so we didn't stay long. This is him looking at the other kids swinging.  He wouldn't look at the camera....just the other kids! 

Sara Beth, my niece also went. 

 She spent the

 night because I was taking her to see the Jonas Brother's 3-D movie

 with a friend and her daughter.  She was so excited and the movie was actually really good! 

 The 3-D made it like you were really at the concert so that was fun for all!  Sara Beth is the one on the right! They danced and had a blast and then we went to Red Robin afterwards for supper.

Sunday, Jason, Chase and I went to visit with Jason's grandmother in Millington.  It was such a nice day that we decided to go to the Memphis Baseball game since they were playing at USA Stadium in Millington.  I decked us all out in University of Memphis gear which is unusual for me since I am all Mississippi State Maroon!  Several of Jason's former players are now playing for Memphis as freshmen so it was fun to watch them play.  

Chase did not know what to make of the grass.  Since he was so little last summer, he didn't get to sit in the grass.  We tried to stand him in it and he did a spread eagle and wanted nothing to do with it and when we sat him in it, he just looked at us like he was in pain. It was hilarious! 

Here are a few more pictures:

I Survived It!

Well, the time came to put Chase back in his own bed. I really can not remember the incident that got him in the same bed as one of us at all times. Sunday night we tried to put him in his bed and shut the door, but I could not handle it at all. He cried for what seemed like an eternity, but it was really only about 10 minutes before I got him out and Jason was not happy with me, but I couldn't handle it. After much discussion, I decided to let Jason do it again Monday night if I didn't have to hear Chase cry, I would be okay. Lucky for me, the Bachelor finale was on so I was all engrossed in that drama and was able to block out Chase's crying a little bit anyway. He went to sleep after about 30 minutes of crying and stayed in his bed all night except for a couple of wake-ups. He did better last night. I hope it is even better tonight and the rest of the nights. I know the time is coming where he will be a big boy and not want to be held as much or snuggle so I was reluctant to let that go so soon, but I think in the long run, he will sleep better and so will Jason and I.

He is such a big boy now! He will be a year old on April 15th! Hard to believe!

Snow in Mississippi

I wasn't aware of the forecast for snow in Memphis or I probably would have stayed home this weekend, but Chase and I went to Saltillo to see my family since Jason had baseball practice all weekend. We got about 3 inches of snow there and it was fun! Before the snow, we took Chase to the mall just to look around and to ride the carousel. He LOVED the carousel. He laughed out loud when it went up and down. Here are a few pictures of the snow at my mom's and of Chase on the Carousel!
