Random pictures

Just some random pictures over the last couple of weeks. Chase is just growing up so fast and we are enjoying him so much!!! He now runs everywhere instead of walking and has LOVED being outside since it's warmed up. He is saying more words like "thank you", he even says it on his own some without us asking. He is also learning animal sounds, he says "moo", "baa", "quack quack", and how do you really type what a dog says? "ruff ruff?", either way he knows it. And my favorite new trick right now is giving real kisses. He has been blowing kisses to people forever but he will now give a open mouth, sloppy but real kiss and I LOVE IT!!!!! And the crazy thing lately is he is sitting on the potty at Miss Angies house. I haven't even bought a potty for home yet(we are soon), but she called last week to tell me that he went potty and everyone clapped and danced for him. I'm not sure he really knew what was going on but he is attempting it so that's good. Enjoy! He loves taking showers...how cute is that tushy?
Happy 2nd birthday Bryce Sefton

We're home!!!

Hi everyone! We're home from Florida, we are tan(and peeling), we loved the beach and we finally have high speed internet!! Thanks Chad for hooking it up and making my blogger life much easier. Now I don't have an excuse for not posting. Our trip was AWESOME!!!! We went to Tiffany's wedding on Sunday and spent the rest of the time at Siesta Key beach. It's was in the 80's everyday and only rained a couple of evenings. We drove down with the Sefton family because we were both going to Bradenton and ended up staying within a few blocks of them. A HUGE thanks to Uncle Tom and aunt Lois Cormany for letting us use their place for the week. Chase learned a couple of new words while we were on vacation, he says "cheese" and he can now sign "more", I think I'm missing one but can't remember right now. I uploaded a bunch of pics so enjoy, sorry some of them are a little out of order. This was Chase about 1 hour from Bradenton. If you could have seen me I was making the same face I think, because 20 hours in the car straight through the night is plenty!!! Chad was a trooper and drove most of the way. I think I only drove a total of 6 hours there and back.
First time at the beach in Bradenton
Not sure what to think of the sand and blinding sun at first
When Daddy holds me it's all good!

I also love eating twinkies (filled with sand of course)
Pick me up Daddy!

Showing off our tans!!! Chase got the best tan out of the three of us. No peeling because Mommy was a little smarter about re-applying his sunscreen.




This is my favorite picture from the whole trip. Thursday night we went to Bradenton beach for the sunset and I snapped this one. So precious of my two favorite guys!!!!!
Sunset on the beach
Wow! We don't take hardly any pictures just the two of us anymore! This was usually the case after a long day at the beach. Chase napped in the car most of the week. We took the long way back a couple of times so he could sleep longer and we got to drive through beautiful Florida weather.
I love the water!! Chase wasn't so sure about the water at first but by the end of the week he would run to the ocean and splash with his hands. We had a great time and hope to go back next year!!! Hope everyone is doing well!
