15 Months Old

Sunday Chance turned 15 months old.  I cant believe that 15 months ago I was in the hospital having this precious little boy.  It's weird...I cant even remember what my life was like before I had Chance.  I often wonder why I couldnt get things done before  and now with a baby, I mean toddler, running around I really cant.  I use to procrastinate with cleaning house, grading papers, working out, you name it I was a last min type girl.  Now I think why was I like that...why couldnt I get more things accomplished.  Because now...its 10 times worse having a toddler pulling at my leg if I try to do dishes or a toddler taking everything out as I put it away...but to be honest I love my new life.  I truly do...its challenging yet rewarding.  Chance brightens my day so much!
Chance this is what you are up to these days:
You are part monkey - you climb on everything.  The table, your crib, the couch, the chairs, the swing outside, mommy and daddy's bed, the stroller (when not being used of course).  You have so much fire for life its so fun to watch - scary at times - but you love doing things on your own.  Mr. Independent!
You wear size 4 diapers.  I think you weigh about 23-24lbs (you go to the dr Friday) You are getting taller too! You wear 12 month pants and 18 month tops.  You are wearing 24 month old pajamas though.  However, your lil waist is so tiny you can still wear some of your 6-9 month old shorts from Children's Place (they tend to run big)
You point at everything wanting to know what it is.  You recently have found the moon (when we are outside at the weeeeee hours of the night watching baseball) and you point at it over and over.
You are obsessed with the word "dawwwg" and saying "ruff ruff" you can say "quack quack" and "vroom vroom" for a car and duck too.

(He loves playing in this duck bathtub.  We got it when he was smaller and he wouldnt even go near it, now it is a fun toy - outside of the bath)

You still do not sleep through the night.  I pretty much have given up on the fact that you ever will.  Routine is not in our vocabulary as far as going to bed at the same time every night.  We have baseball games every Tuesday and Friday and those nights are some of your favorite nights to play but you get so tired that you almost cant sleep.  We take a bath and sing and read books every night but the TIME you go to bed is different. 
You still take 2 naps a day (sometimes 1 nap - just depends)
You have now developed a strong attachment to your paci - needing it mainly when you are tired but then spit it out once you fall asleep.
You entertain us A LOT.  You are so fun to watch and laugh with.  You are just growing up way too fast!

He is just so stinkin cute!

I have many more photos to upload but I am very tired and need to go to bed! 

Happy 15 Months Chance!  We love you!

Date Night and More Baseball

This last weekend Doug and I went on a little date.  Thank you mom, dad and Robin for keeping Chance so we could enjoy dinner together.  We went to Outback!  It was so good.

After a big win Tuesday!

Us girls!  I am so blessed that I live in the same town as my family.  They are sooo supportive and come with me to every game.  :)

He wants to be out on the field so bad! 

and these last two pictures are of Chance's new outfit Nana bought him.  :)

Adventures with this Blue Eyed Boy

Sad we took it away from him.

Insight on what we do at the games.  Climb fences!  I have a monkey on my hands!

and one sweet face!

My mom tried to get a picture of me and chance before the game and this is the best we got.

Drinking my water after running around.  Apparently he was pretty parched.  :)

Family Photo after the win!

Then it was time to chase lil man again

I have been out of the blogging mood lately.  It is sad when your husband emails you and says "you need to do a new blog".  It's true...Ever since I got my iphone I have either done a couple of blogs from my phone - the pictures turn out stretched and huge - and or I am so tired at night that I havent been wanting to sit and blog.  Our life is filled with baseball games two nights a week and with TAKS testing and getting my kiddos ready for that I have been exhausted.  Anyhow - Here are a bunch of pictures a baseball mom took of Chance at the first district game.  Some of them he is in the middle of showing his dance "moves" to the entire crowd.  I told my mom last night I was going to start charging a fee for Chance entertaining the crowd.  :)  He truly is so funny to watch.  Last night he was turning in circles so much to the music he couldnt walk straight and fell and face planted - you would think that would slow him down...nope...He got right back up and started again.  After the games...I am so tired.  It is so fun to watch him run and play and make us laugh.  But sometimes...I just would like for him to sit in my lap and watch the game.  Is that too much to ask of my soon to be 15 month old? :) 

 Music started...head starts bouncing...

 Go Chance....Go Chance...(that really gets him going too when you chant him on)

 He likes to throw his "paci" in the trash.  Last night when he did...it stayed in there and we waved "Bye Bye"

Not sure what I was looking at in this picture.  But this is the only family picture we have taken the whole season.  Nice. 
At the game last night...not a pretty game...Chance found where to go in the dugout...and he was literally on the field by the time I could catch him.  Luckily his daddy didnt see!  :)  I have one active, loving, funny, so cute lil boy on my hands!
