Its been 4 months since I last posted here. Sorry guys! I have been so busy with Chase, and this is literally the first time I have been able to sit down and have a thought for myself! What has happened in the 4 months that I haven't been letting you guys know? Well....
Chase celebrated his first christmas! He didn't really get what was going on, but I think he had fun playing with all his new toys and all the new things that my parents got him, they are loving being grandparents, and Chase loves playing with his cousin Mikayla, who is my older brother Josh's daughter. She is almost 3, and she loves having a little cousin to play with. Josh and his wife Lauren live about 10 minutes away, and Chase goes over to their house a lot, and Bryant and I love spending time with Josh and Lauren.
My brother Jeff got into college! He got accepted into UCSD, Stanford, UC Berkeley, Yale, and NYU. He's so freaking smart. He is going to major in business. I don't know where he is going to end up, he can't decide. I think he should go to Yale, just because, HELLO its YALE!!! but he is worried about leaving and going that far away, because he wants to be a part of Chase's life. I told him not to worry, that Chase will be here when he gets back!
We had a memorial for my brother Brent, because March 29th was the 14th year since he died. It was really emotional for me, since he was my twin. He and I went through so much together, and I wish he was still alive. Bryant was really sensitive to me that day, and it just proved that he is perfect for me, because he knew just what to say to make me feel better. Sometimes I take responsibility for Brent not being here anymore, because I lived through everything, and he didn't. Want to know what it was, pm me.
My sister Christina got accepted into the school that I used to go to, but I don't think that she is excited about going to an all girls school, because she wants to date boys! Thats her reasoning. I don't think she will have any problems with that. She and her boyfriend Kyle broke up, but now she has been dating some guy named Aaron. I have only met him a few times, but he was drafted to the local all boys high school as the first draft varsity football player, as a freshman. Jeff says he is really good, because he is on the team at that school, so he watched the tryout.
March 23rd was Bryant and my 1 year marriage anniversary, and our 3 year anniversary together. Josh and Lauren watched Chase, and Bryant and I went out to dinner. We went to Outback, which is my favorite restaurant, and I went off my diet for one night! :) I have been trying to get my pre-Chase body back, and it has been a challenge. I gained about 45 pounds while I was pregnant, and I have lost 30 of them, so I only have 15 left!!
I have gone back to dance clas.s, not too much, but just enough to get exercise and get back in shape. I haven't gone up on pointe, but that is going to take time, since I took about a year off.
Chase is 9 months old, and he is starting to talk! He says cook, mama, dada, kaykay(mikayla), oshie(josh), lowie(lauren), effie(jeff), gammy(grandma, my mom), gappa(grandpa, my dad), teena(christina), gam deb (grandma deb, bryants mom), gap bo (grandpa bob, bryants dad), bed, toy, teebee(tv), up, down, couch(more like cooch), bed, bath, and a few other words. He is also walking! Usually he has to hold onto something, but he has been walking without holding onto things for a few steps recently.
I guess this is it for now. I am always willing to answer your questions, so if you have any, you can comment here, or pm me if you want. Whatever.
Love you all, thanks for being so supportive through all of this, and not shutting me out of your lives for being a teenage mother and all that. I will try to go on more now, and not wait another 4 months to post something else!
