Dinner with Friends

Chase and Evey in Annapolis

We are having problems with our laptop- like someone spilled beer on it! It wasn't me:0 Some of the keys don't work and I don't feel like going downstairs to the office so these posts will be just pics.

Morning Smiles

Please reserve judgment regarding my baby voice and singing! Chase is super "chatty" after he eats and we have a morning routine where we take video for Daddy. What's even more hilarious is when we let Chase watch and listen to this video, he squeals and gets excited when he hears himself!!

Stupid Squirrels

I had every intention of taking pictures with Chase and the pumpkins we got a few weeks ago, but as you can see some furry friends decided to stake their claim. We gave up trying to shoo them away, and now we try to get pictures of them climbing inside to dig out the seeds. They've been munching on the pumpkins since the day after we brought them home!

Hat Time

Trying to keep Chase from getting too much sun during his first trip to Federal Hill. Burying his head in daddy's chest works well also.

In this picture we were trying hard to get him to smile or laugh, he ends up getting distracted by the flash and wasn't generally thrilled with mommy's after bath choice for head wear.

Soap box Derby

Chase slept through most of the races

Summer was pretty interested

Go Girls!!

So it was not only the first soap box derby for Chase, but it was also a first for Jas and I this past weekend! In preparation for next year's Baltimore Grand Prix our community association thought it would be great to have local businesses sponsor a soap box derby down Harford Rd. We rushed to get there for the start which was supposed to be at 10am, but didn't miss anything since nothing really got started until about 11am. We took Summer for the adventure, and all considering she was well behaved. She doesn't mind people and kids petting her, but she has never gotten along with other dogs. There unfortunately were lots of people with dogs!

Family Pictures

We just got the link for the album of photos from our visit to VA! Linda captured some wonderful shots, and we can't wait for you all to see them. She even managed to catch the pics of him giving me a little shower-this happened twice during his "au natural" shots:)

You can view Chase's first portraits and some sweet family shots here: Family Photos

Look how big he is!!

So Far, So Good

We started weaning Chase's medication 6 days ago and he has not had any symptoms warranting a call to the pulmonologist! We've had a busy few days-driving to VA to get baby/family portraits from our wedding photographer(she is awesome!!), an actual date night where MomMom and PopPop H. babysat, and brunch with MomMom and PopPop K. and Aunt Zandy in Federal Hill taking advantage of the tail end of the warm weather to eat outside. Its been a long few days and everyone is exhausted so I'll post pics tomorrow:)

Belated news, but last weekend my brother got married in Wales! Congratulations Tim and Fay! Unfortunately we were unable to attend, but the rest of my family got to spend ten days travelling in London and Wales, and we got to see some of the pictures this weekend. Chase thanks all of his new extended family for the wonderful gifts-he even got his first passport booklet for his first trip abroad:)
