a day at the beach

Hooray for the sun! I was beginning to think it had left the New England area for good. Thank goodness it found its way back! We decided to quickly take advantage of the heat and head to the beach! It was just what we all needed!

Chase of course had a blast. He held onto the little yellow shovel the entire time, anytime the shovel found its way into a different set of hands he was on a mission to get it back. At one point he even stood straight up on his own (for the first time) out of desperation to get the shovel back.

Bree and Chase are too cute. They love playing together already.

I don't think we have felt this refreshed in months. Crazy Nate even took a dip with some of the VanBibber girls in the freezing ocean!

Oh and Nate's sister Michelle is visiting! Hooray for Michelle. She came on Thursday and we have managed to go the entire time without taking a single picture....sad. We have had so much fun having her here, we don't want to let her go!

We have had such a fun time the past 10 days! My parents came to visit and we loved every minute of it. Chase ate up every hug, kiss, and all the fun. He LOVES his Nan & Bop.

Chase says, thanks Nan for loving me so much! I loved all of your snuggles, and the funny noises you taught me to make. I had so much fun and I miss you already!

Thanks Bop! I had so much fun riding around in the wheelbarrow with you. I thought it was so funny. I will miss hearing you come up the stairs every morning calling my name! Thanks for all of the fun, I love and miss you!

Easter was kind of cold in Vermont-surprise, surprise! But we still managed to have a quick Easter egg hunt at the VanBibber's. Chase found his 2 eggs and he was happy with that. He is so stinking cute.

The HAIRCUT! Well, Chase's beautiful hair has really been growing lately. We decided after he turned one we would get his hair cut. He was able to wear a cool cape, hold a comb, and even sit in his daddy's lap. That wasn't good enough! He was MAD! I'm not sure if he was mad at the girl cuting his hair, or if he was mad at how she combed his hair before she cut it? In any case, he cried the entire time. Where was his Auntie Cassie when he needed her? We found out after that he probably just really didn't feel well. He ended up really sick the next day, which led to RSV. We had a scary week with a sick little guy, but he is a fighter and has gotten much better. I love my little guy, he is just the best!

I miss you Mom & Dad! Thanks for visiting, you guys are the best!
