5 Months

My sweet little buddy is five months old now! This past month with him has been so much fun. He hit that four month mark and it was like a switch flipped. He stopped being as much like a newborn and more like, well, a baby! He talks and laughs. His little face lights up when he sees people he loves. He just knows they are going to talk to him and he loves that. He has the cutest little giggle! He's busy! Always squirming, looking all around. He doesn't want to sit still and snuggle (unless he's really sleepy!) He finally started to not mind being on his tummy. In fact, the biggest milestone of this month was when he learned to roll over! He's so determined. He can go from his back to his tummy. He has gone back over a few times but usually he gets on his tummy then cries until someone rescues him. As soon as we do, he goes right back over. He's started sleeping on his tummy too. He is just so much fun! We are so, so thankful for our sweet, good natured, happy little guy!

Chase's Nursery

I'm finally getting around to posting the pictures of Chase's side of the room. He shares a room with Sarah. Her side has pink with chocolate brown polka dots and some flowers. One of these days the whole room will be clean at the same time and I'll show you how it looks all together! His side has blue, chocolate brown & polka dots and a few animals. I'm happy with how it turned out!


Rag Quilt and a Cute Baby

My mom has made a rag quilt for each of my babies. This is Chase's. It came out so cute! Thanks Grandma!

Spring Break at Lake Murray

We had so much fun camping with my family over Spring Break! My parents rented a cabin at Lake Murray. We used to go camping there when we were kids so it was fun to go back with our kids. Papa made a huge campfire every night which the kids loved. We made S'mores and lots of other yummy camp food! We relaxed in the cabin, went for walks, played at a little beach area, did crafts on the patio (does that surprise anyone?), worked a puzzle, and just enjoyed all being together!

4 Months

Our sweet little guy is 4 months old this week. He's so precious! Look at his sweet little face and those chubby cheeks. :) He's getting more social now. He stays awake a little longer during the day. He laughs and smiles and "talks" to us, epecially in the evenings. He sleeps pretty well at night now. He has been holding on to toys. The kids have fun handing him things to see if he'll hold them. We just love having him around!
