Halloween 09

Mommy and Chase's first time carving pumpkins. Daddy had to help us!

Yummy, candy! Gnomes and little boys love candy!

Come on, we gotta get to some more houses.

Ok, I'm leaving without you!!

Come on! Quit messing with my costume so I can go get the good stuff!

We all had a good Halloween. Hope you all did as well. Chase went as our little garden gnome and he was a big hit with all the neighbors. Every single person commented on how cute he was (duh, of course he's cute). He had a blast, but was cranky the next because of Halloween overload. I think he would do Halloween every night if he could (and so would Dan, lol).

At The County Fair!

Chase went to the county fair for the first time in Oct and he loved it. He loved getting on all the rides, especially this one above. I was a little surprised because it went around pretty quickly and went up pretty high. He laughed the whole time. Grandma got to be the lucky one who got to ride most of the rides with him. Next year hopefully he'll be a little taller and be able to ride a few more.

Riding the fake ponies.

Riding the real ponies.

Nebraska Trip 2009

Dan, Chase and I spent a week in Nebraska with Grandma and Grandpa Costello in early September. We had an awesome time. Chase really enjoyed the zoo, the children's museum, and just spending time with his grandma and grandpa. So here are some pics of our fab trip!

I know there are more pics, but now I have to find them. More to come!

Chase and his train table

Chase's 2nd Birthday!

This is our 2 year old little monkey the morning of his birthday in his little man outfit!
He looks so grown up!

Rollin with my homey Chuck!

Whackin' some moles at Chuck E. Cheese!

Already 2 hours devoted to putting together the train table and only half way done!

The finished train table 3 hours later! But Chase loves it and that is all that matters!

Chase had a great birthday! We started off going to Chuck E. Cheese before lunch and then came home for some well needed rest. When Chase woke up he ran to his train table and played with it till dinner time. After dinner we had cupcakes and opened some more presents and then back to the train table. He finally tired out about 10, only to take a train with him to bed! I know where he'll be first thing in the morning. I will post more pics and a couple of videos tomorrow, but I am exhausted for tonight and headed to bed. Thanks to everyone who made his birthday special.

A Few Pics

Some recent pics!

I'm helping Mommy with the yard work. She won't let me turn it on though!

Up, Close and Personal! Don't I have a great smile!

This is what mommy calls my "whiny face"!
