Back to Blogging

Hello!!!  Well a mommy group friend inspired me to restart the blog.  I figure with us being a way from all of our family this might be a way to keep everyone up to date.  I know Facebook really helps with that too!  Well in the past year we have had a baby (Chase) and moved to Georgia!  Casey got a new job working for Delta Dental in Alpharetta, GA.  He really seems to be enjoying himself.  With the move I was able to stay home with Chase which is time I will cherish for the rest of my life.  I will not get these years back and I am thankful for the opportunity to stay home with him!

We have now been in Georgia for 6 months and seem to be fitting in well. We are very lucky to have awesome neighbors!  They are our age and have made the move down here so much nicer.  It is nice to have that person/people right next door to help you out.  It is really pretty here and we live only about 30 minutes away from the airport.  So if anyone wants to visit it is a close drive to come get you!!!

Chase visited Grammy and Papa in Idaho in September and had a great time!  He has also visited Sacramento a few times.  Once for Kristen and Ryan's reception and the other time to travel with Casey to San Fran.  He seems to do well on the plane.  We spent new years in Gulf Shores with Gamma and Grandpa and Chase got to see the beach for the first time.  Yep.  Loved eating the sand.

Some of Chase's milestones...  He sat up on his own around 5 months of age.  Looked like he really wanted to perfect that because he did not crawl until after his 1st birthday.  Around that time he also started using a push walker.  He looks like little old man Chase.  He has gotten a lot faster crawling now to.   He got his first hair cut at 11 months.  Man he was really rocking a mullet for months!

Chase has met some very nice friends here.  I am sure they will make their debet soon!  They are all about his age and it is so fun to see them reach each milestone together.  We try to do a few play dates a month and today was Chase's first playdate at his house.  They seemed to have a fun time so I hope they come back!!!

















Well I will try to do better and keep this updated more!!!
