This is Chase's new favorite thing to do. This was taken a couple of days before his birthday, and now he has a new little truck that he climbs onto and off of over and again. He also now likes to push it and practice walking. Hopefully he'll take his first unassisted steps in the next few days or weeks!

Chase's First Birthday!
Party time for Chase!We took him to the park for the first time on Monday, his first birthday. He loved the swings, enjoyed the slide, but was a little wary of grass (we don't have any at the house.) Ross and I played catch on the grass and he loved watching us. We even gave him the baseball and had him throw it a couple of times.
Later, when the family gathered for a little birthday party, we gave him a chocolate cupcake and expected him to make a mess all over.. you know, like babies are supposed to on their birthdays.(See picture of Gina, Chase's cousin, below, for an example.) Instead, he would only eat it if we broke pieces off for him, and when he accidentally got his hand stuck in the frosting, flipped out and showed us his hand, motioning for us to clean it off NOW! He apparently doesn't like to have sticky hands. He got some fun toys, and especially loves his new little Disney truck that he can climb onto and off again endlessly. Overall it was a pretty fun day. If only babies understood what birthdays are....
