I think he's trying to tell me to put the camera down


Thank you Tanya (Best.toy.idea.ever!)

Chase Update

Been a very busy baby lately, so you'll have to forgive the delay in my blogging. I'm busy crawling all over the place now and does that take forever! I prefer to walk, but since I haven't started that yet, I'll just work on my standing.

Mom says I'm like a little rock climber, I grab the couch piping with the tips of my fingers and pull myself up. Of course I fall sometimes, so it's a good thing I'm wearing my Pampers.

Not a whole lot to report, getting ready for my first birthday! Carter/Brody & Will have been showing me how it's done- I can't wait for my own party.

Other than that- still no teeth (Mom prays to the tooth fairy everynight!) I'm talking up a storm, and just hanging out with my favorite people. OH! Mom did get a new job so now I spend part of my days at Aunt Tara's with my cousins Dustin and Charrley. They're WAY older, so they're showing me the ropes. It's a pretty sweet deal bc The G's (Klett and Lehman) still pick me up so I get to see them a lot too.

A nice little weekend

Mark & Amber have heart attacks when Mom does this, so she does it often!


Gaudreaus- the next Generation



GGG (Great Grandpa Gaudreau)

Poppa, me & Mom

Prolly not :-)

Not so sure about this swing thing. . .

I had myself a nice little weekend. Saturday was GG Gaudreau's birthday party. Got to hang out with my cousins Kendall and Dillon, and my Poppa! It was fun and Kendall and I even got lessons in sharing. I feel more of those are coming our way. Baby Dillon is still too small to play with us, but it was nice to have him there.

On Sunday Mom and I went down to Tenney park. We were very disappointed that you can't feed the ducks anymore, but I tried out the swings and then Mom took me to see the boats. I've heard rumors that Dad and Gpa Lehman have those too, but neither have taken me out yet. . . HINT HINT!

PS- Mom wanted to share the latest stats from my 9 month apt.

I'm 15lbs 12oz and 26.5 inches! Dr Pagel thinks I'm doing PERFECT!

Reading hour

Here's some cute pics of Chase with GG Kessenich!

In our family it's a big deal when you "outgrow" Gma Kessenich. I would say Chase is definetaly on his way!

He was never this small!!

We've got a new addition to the Gaudreau Fam. Actually two- my nephew Gabriel was born in June (but I don't have any pictures yet- someone should help me out with that!)

But my latest cousin is Dillon Matthew Gaudreau! Born last Wednesday, the 29th :-) Everyone is doing great.

Chase wasn't too impressed with the baby, was more interested in Matt's shoelaces to be honest. But we got one cute pic of the two of them. . .

Busy Weekend

We had a busy weekend, Saturday Mom took me to her friend's wedding. I was her new "plus one" & I was chaaarming! The ladies were loving me!!!

Sunday was a lunch date with my cousin Kendall at TGI Fridays & then off to Milwaukee for my boy Carter's Bday. He's TWO!! Last year I was hiding out, so this year we did it up big with swimming, bike riding & I even snatched some cake from Will- the picture is me eyeing up his plate. I had peas, he had cake- so not fair!

It was a long day for sure, but totally worth it.
And PS- check out my new shoes!

What's up now!

This was a very big week for me, not only did I learn to clap, wave goodbye AND shake my head "no"- with excellent comic timing by the way!

I also got the ok to wear my "special shoes" at night only!!! Dr Noonan said my feet look so good, he couldn't believe it was both feet! So Mom and I went shopping for new shoes yesterday. She was a little disappointed on the selection, but I talked her into some sandals & sneakers. Gpa Lehman will be SO excited when he comes back from Canada today- he hates my "special shoes."

Oh! Almost forgot, our Birth to Three lady, Tracy, came out with my PT crush (Darcy) and did my 6 month eval. I know I'm almost nine months, but I've been working with them since I got home. She said ,and I quote:

"For only 8/1/2 months, he seems ahead of the game in the areas of speech and fine motor." !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take that!

Still a rockstar- Chase :-)
