It's amazing how much this little boy has changed my life and the person that I have become. Chase makes Shane and I so happy and has us laughing every day. It's so funny to see such a little person with my face on Shane's body frame. I think Chase is the perfect mix of both of us.
The Big Boy didn't know what to think of the candle in his waffle as Mamma and Dadda sang Happy Birthday to him this morning :-)
Here is Chase at his 1 week and 1 year lamb picture:
Just some of the lessons that I have learned over the past year:
•Grandparents are the best!
•You may lose your pregnancy weight, but you’re body will NEVER be the same
•Limit the “Wait Until…” stories to new moms
•Doctors don’t know everything, most often a mother’s instinct is best
•Children’s music is a MUST have
•Dropping your child off at daycare for the first time is one of the hardest things to do
•Sick babies often pass their cooties onto Mamma and Dadda
•Babies’ poop smells just as bad as grown up poop!
•A baby with reflux should not have carpet in the bedroom
•Never, Never, Ever touch a strange baby’s hands
•The best tricks for a screaming baby…take them outside or show them a light fixture
•Sometimes the empty box is more fun than the toy that came inside of it
•Nothing melts your heart more than a baby’s laugh
•That video camera is just not going to get as much use as you thought it would
•When a toddler is quiet, it usually means he’s up to no good
•There is no worse feeling than watching your baby scream in pain and you have no idea what to do
•Going out for errands requires a lot of pre-planning and packing
•My child’s accomplishments become my own
•A little boy's favorite toy in the tub is his very own do-la-le
