Splish, splash, Chase was takin' a bath...

This kid absolutely cracked himself (and his mother) up in the bathtub tonight. Who knew the simple act of splashing water everywhere was the funniest thing imaginable?!?

Sometimes... just every once in a while... the good guys win!

Chase was nearly inconsolable when the bad guys led 50-54 at halftime, but he learned from Daddy that you've gotta believe, and the Celtics came back to beat the Lakers, 109-96. What a good lesson for the Cajun Critter and a good birthday present for his dad.

Green Day

Chase took advantage of the continued warm weather to roll through The Denver Botanic Gardens today. His constant giggles throughout our tour made his parents re-discover the humor inherent in flora.

Groundhog Day?

With a near-record temperature of 67 degrees in Denver today, Chase popped out of his burrow and declared winter over. We hope!

Rec Center

Chase enjoys christening some toys at a "sneak peak" of the new Central Park Rec Center in Stapleton. Looks pretty good for a kid with a low grade temperature.

Waiting for Daddy

Chase looks out the rumpus room window in anticipation.

3 Shots to the Leg

Today Chase visited Dr. Amy. If you look hard you can see his tears. Also, if you look hard you can see the Bugs Bunny Band-Aid that helped in his recovery.

Something Fishy

Chase checks out a friendly critter at the Cherry Creek Mall.

Yoda and Chase -- Perfect Together

Chase enjoys a post nap laugh with his newest buddy courtesy of Maryjean, Travis, Maddie, Bella, Karen and Ashley. Thank you New Hampshire!

Wait...what did you say is behind me?

We enjoyed a beautiful Saturday morning at the Denver Zoo, where Chase got very up close and personal with a friendly (we hope!) lion.

Doin' Hard Time

"Nobody knows the trouble I've seen...

Nobody knows my sorrow."

The Snowy Day

Chase plays in the snow for the very first time. His mitten came off leading to brief tears, but he recovered quickly.

Bust A Move

Some nights, Chase likes to fire up the stereo, grab his corncob pipe, and trip the light fantastic. If you had his moves, so would you.

Um, he likes this... really...

Here are my questions...

For Trane: Why in the heck are you just sitting there as he does this?

For Chase: Just what are you planning to do with that right finger?

Cowboy Up!

Chase enjoyed (and constantly screeched at) the animals at the National Western Stock Show. It is, after all, the "Superbowl of Livestock Shows." Wecome to the West, Young Man.

Losers

Jets - 28, Patriots - 21.

This is no way to start year number two.

And now for his second trip around the sun...

And joining other luminaries such as Martin Luther King, Drew Brees, and Wikipedia (seriously, go ahead and verify it on Wikipedia!), is our newest entry on the list of great figures born on January 15th -- Ace!

Two Monkeys

Chase and Jamey chillin' in the turtle at everybody's favorite Denver hot spot, Lil' Monkey Bizness.

Unchain My Heart

Kid, if we opened that gate, you'd tumble down the stairs. It's for your own good, really. Are you scared straight, yet?

Uncle Lewis

"Hey, Gris, if you're not doing anything constructive, run into the living room and get my stogie."

First Friends

Chase and Jamey tear up the rumpus room. Think these kids have enough toys to occupy them?

Have you tried this?!? It's delicious!

Chase enjoys some Mommy-made finger foods.

Reading is FUNdamental

While we were sitting at the kitchen counter, Chase was laughing hysterically. We turned around and this is what we saw. He loves looking at other baby's faces.

Parks & Recreation

Out for a walk with Mommy & Daddy on a beautiful January day to check out our new neighborhood Denver Recreation Center.

Stars in my eyes

Cute? Yes.

But he's tired. Watch out if you take that sucker out of his mouth.

Enter the Matrix

"I know Kung Fu!"

T. Tommy Terrific

The Tom Brady jersey arrived! The Tom Brady jersey arrived! The Tom Brady jersey arrived!

And it has a tag!!!

Having a drink with friends

Chase enjoys a little afternoon refreshment with his new Christmas friends, Mr. Elephant and Mr. Loon.

Mallrat

Chase explores the children's play area at the Cherry Creek Mall with Mom.

I have four big teeth, too!

Chase at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Our first of many trips there, to be sure.

New Year's Day
