Reptiles at the zoo

Back in July (yes, we are that far backlogged) while I was off work for a week, we went to the zoo. Mimi came with us. At first Chase wanted nothing to do with the zoo but as time went on...and we went to the water park...he seemed to warm up. Just in time to get up close and personal with some reptiles!

We're back!

It took some time but we are finally back online. New job meant new laptop which meant downloading the software to get pics off the camera. And you say, what is the big deal? Nothing really...just can't seem to find the time with the crazy two year old running around.

So new pics of Chase for the family and friends who visit here! I have a bunch stocked up so some of these may be a little dated but eventually we will get caught up. Here is Mr. Chase himself...ready to take to the road.

Meet my cousin, Bryce

After spending the morning spoiling Todd, going to lunch and hanging at the pool, we all went to Todd's parents to celebrate Father's Day. I am desperately trying to get a good picture of Chase and his cousin Bryce but alas, 18 months difference in age seems HUGE right now. To get both of them to look at the camera at the same time is, well, impossible!

New toy: Water table!

Chase and I got to spend some quality time together on Saturday so what did we do? Shopped, of course! I bought him a new water table. Since we don't seem to be getting to the pool like I hoped, I figured this was the next best thing. (Later that same day we actually did end up at the pool. It looks like I may have a water baby on my hands!)

Finally, a weekend at home

We finally, after two weeks of travelling, had a weekend at home. It was great to be able to play with our own toys, sleep in and get caught up with things at the house. Since we didn't have a whole lot going on, no new pictures from the weekend. However, here are a couple from our weekend in Cleveland.

TGIF!

As promised, I will include some pics of Chase from the lake two weekends ago. We had a blast the past two weekends but it is officially time to take a break this weekend. Looking to go to the pool and hang out at home!

Look mom, I am driving the boat! (Note: this boat is parked in the driveway the house. We would NOT be on the boat without a lifejacket!)

No hands, no hands! Love to be in charge, wonder where he gets that?

Cleaning, swimming, playing...I am exhausted!

The pics from Cleveland

The first one is of Chase and Famous Amois' dog Sammy. Can you see the fear?! The next ones are of Aunt Melissa trying on silly hats in the store. I am still finding glitter from that sparkle hat.
