Updates, Boating, and Fifth disease

We have been busy these last few weeks! I feel horrible that I don't update my blog very often.  I am working on Chance's baby book and the only way I have a real update is through the blog so I have to be better! 
  • Chance is running and talking like crazy!  He is now putting a few words together such as "Go Dad Go!" and the other day he told me to "put away" when referring to the dog bowls.  He helps me put them away everyday so we don't: 1: eat dog food or 2: play in the dog water!  He can also count to three when prompted with one.....
  •  He also made me sad today because he would ask Daddy Home?? wondering where his Dad was or Mommy Home? making sure I was not going to work today.  I think he really understands more when we leave him for work.  I am so grateful for Ben's mom and Tiffany that take such great care of him!
  • When he is doing number 2 he will look at me and say "poop!" too funny!
  • He knows that Elmo is on his diapers and gets very excited about "Melmo" even though we have only watched Seseame Street a couple of times. 
  • Carries his bat and car everywhere including CVS and Gran's house.
  • Such a little boy playing with choo-choos, cars, and trucks! Loves to watch the garbage men and any big truck that drives by!  He even gets a few honks!
  • He gets this very serious look on his face and squishes up his nose when he is either trying to hit the golf ball or swing his bat!
  • I told him the other day to go get a certain book off his shelf to read and he did!
  • He likes to dance and sing.  Can even finish a few words to songs that he knows!
  • He somehow got Fifths disease last week.  What a horrible rash!  Luckily it has cleared up and he did fine with it.  I had to get my blood drawn to make sure I did not get it since it is harmful to the baby.  Praise God I was immune!
  • We just love this little boy!  He makes me smile!
  • Dont you just love Ben's sunglasses!
    He was worn out!
    Not so happy with Mommy taking pictures of his rash from Fifths disease (they need to name it something else! Sounds so horrible!)
    Was a very weird rash
    He loves the dogs! Laying on Boomer (aka "BoBo)
    His new shoes! Makes him look like a big boy!
    Our receptionist in Bulverde painted this picture for Chance! The background is his baby quilt from his crib! What an amazing gift!  We just love it!
