Chase's 1st Easter

Tina, Chase, and I shared our first Easter Sunday together with the Guenther family.  We went to church at Trinity Luthern where Aunt Tammy held Chase the whole time. Chase liked his outfit with the bunny feet.  After church we went to Uncle Eric and Aunt Mariel's to have lunch.  Chase also had is first experiece with a balloon which he quite enjoyed.

Chase's Baptism

Chase was baptised at First United Methodist Church on March 11th by Pastor David Kalas with his Godparents are Uncle Greg and Aunt Tammy Huza.  After the event, our families went to brunch at 1951 where everyone enjoyed the Chocolate Fountain and desert room (especially Mason, Emma, Collin, and Kyleigh).  We thank our families for the wonderful gifts he received.

Chase Needs a Schedule

After reading some "Becoming Baby Wise", we think Chase might need to start getting some consistency for sleep, feeding, and playing.  Now if we could only control what he did, setting a schedule would be as easy as they make it sound.  He still isn't sleeping through the night, but we have about a month left before Tina needs to go back to work. 

We like bring Chaes various places (Oak Street, Walmart, Bay Park Mall).  Any waitress that doesn't comment on how cute he is gets a smaller tip (yeah, that really happened). 

Mishler Portrait Studios produced some good shots today in his Green Bay Packer outfit (gift from Great Aunt Diane) and Wisconsin Hat from (Buddha and Heidi and Jaime Metoxen).

After a pricey trip to Picture People, I decided to invest in a wireless flash and umbrella kit so I could take fancy pictures on my own.  Still learning how it all works, but I was able to pull of this gem below.  I called it "Chase in a Basket" which I thought was really creative.

I'm almost a month old!

Hello, this is Chase!  I turned 3 weeks old last Thursday and I like my new home.  Mom and Dad are up with me all the time.  They took me to Olive Garden last week for my first night out in public.  I ate four breadsticks and then pretty much slept the whole time. 

The following day, they took me the Kelly Lake Ice Fishing Derby.  I didn't do much ice fishing, but instead spent most of the time being held by my 9 year old named Collin.

iBABY

Tina and I have made it through the first two nights with Chase.  He sleeps must of the time and we are talking turns with the whole diaper thing.  One of the most helpful things we've found is the the free Google app called iBaby.  We can keep track of feedings, medications, set reminders, etc.  I would definitely recommend it.

Our first doctor check up is tomorrow. 

Chase is Home!

Chase is finally home. He's really liking it here so far.  This will be the first night without the nurses so we'll have to see how that goes.
