That's right. Chase is sick again. We haven't had to put him in the hospital and we are hoping that it doesn't come to that. He got x-rays this week and they found the starting of pneumonia. We hope that he gets better so that he doesn't have to do this anymore. He is handling it pretty well. He is definitely our little trooper.

It is funny how things change so quickly. Just this last week Chase has grown up so much. It is so funny how little kids grow in spurts. All the sudden he is doing so much more. He started saying "Oh No." It is pretty cute. He will drop the ball, and they say "Oh No." It is fun to watch him change. He started to love wearing hats. It doesn't matter what it looks like, if it is a hat, it is on his head. He won't let us put hats on him though. If we put it on, he pulls it right off. Just a little of his stubbornness showing through. He loves music. He is always playing his flute or the piano or just plain singing. It is fun to hear some of the songs. We wonder where he gets them from. We can't believe that he is almost 20 months. It is crazy to think how much our little boy is growing up.

We cut Chase's hair yesterday. He told us he wanted to look like Uncle Josh, so we got as close as we could. Just kidding. We didn't mean to cut it that short, but we couldn't find the right clipper attachment. When we decided to just use one number shorter, we didn't think that it would pretty much shave his head. He likes it though. He thinks that it feels cool. He is always walking around rubbing his head.

Chase was watching me clean the bathroom the other day and he got really excited. He wanted to help so much. I have never seen anybody have so much fun washing a toilet.

Ethan took Chase riding around the house the other day. Chase was laughing so hard. At first he was holding on for dear life, but once he got used to things, he started to get a little more brave. I think it is the greatest thing to watch the two of them play together. I almost always have to have my camera with me whenever Ethan is home.

Chase is starting to get into climbing on things. The other day he learned to climb on the coffee table. He climbs on top, and then claps because he is so proud of himself for being able to get up there.

Chase is 18 months old now. We can't believe how fast he has grown. He is such a wonderful boy to be around. He is so full of laughter. It is so fun to watch him play. He loves to read his books. He talks to them and even sings to them. It is all very sweet.
He has recently discovered the camera. He loves to have his picture taken, then he comes around to the other side just to see what the picture looks like.

He really loves to cuddle with daddy after a long day. He just lays down on daddy's chest and gets his back scratched. I think it is one of his favorite things everyday, but who can blame him.

Chase loves playing his little piano. In the first picture he is playing a soft number, but in the second picture, he was playing a more wild piece.

Chase likes his bath so much, he plays in it even without water.

Chase loves his baths. He just plays the whole time. I figured it was about time I got some naki pictures up here.
