Happy birthday Chase!!!!

I can't believe he is one!! This year has gone so fast, yet so slow at the same time. A lot has happened for our little family this past year, but the greatest thing of all is our little Chaser!!! He has brought so much joy and happiness and love into our family. I can't remember life without him!! We love him so much and are enjoying watching him grow. He crawls like a maniac and can take a few steps on his own. He has three teeth and is working on two more. He already has a little attitude and gets mad when he doesn't get his way. (Not looking forward to having to deal more with this!) He is really smart. He watches Carter do something and then does the same thing. He is pretty serious when he is around people he doesn't know and doesn't just give out smiles. He is my climber. I have to pull him down off of things several times a day. His favorite things to do are climb the stairs, play in the garbage, dishwasher and bathroom and listen to music. Just like his older brother he gets very excited when music comes on and loves to dance. His favorite is Carrie Underwood (same as Carter). I'm thinking that there is a little influence from mom there :) Chase loves monkeys. Every time we open a book and show him a monkey he gets super happy and super excited and starts squealing. He can say mama, dada and night night. His favorite food right now are yogurt melts, grapes and pretzels. Chase has beautiful blue eyes and his eyelashes are getting pretty long as well. I get comments all the time about how beautiful Carter and Chase's eyes are. We still aren't sure how we got two blue eyed boys, when neither of us have them, but we love them! Chase absolutely adores Carter and is always playing with him and laughing at him. Carter is a great big brother! We love out little Chase and we are so grateful he is a member of our family. 

I take pictures every month for the first year. I thought it would be fun to see him grow! So here they are!!

Chase's birth was a crazy experience, but I was so glad he was here!!
