Time out from Christmas talk.......Chase is T minus 1 month from the big ONE!

I cannot believe that my baby Chase Cooper will soon be the big ONE!  11-months old today, I feel like time is just slipping by.  His baby days are numbered, I just know it.  He's still such a mellow guy, and surely a momma's boy.  The past week or so, he's been feeling under the weather and only Mommy can comfort him.  He would just lay on my chest and snuggle to go to sleep. I'm definitely taking advantage of every second he wants to cuddle!  He's finally feeling better and back to his usual self, sleeping 11-12 hours at night.  Hooray!

Chase has pretty much mastered walking along the furniture, but refuses to let go and walk on his own.  But that's fine; he can take his sweet little time. :)  And because he's into everything, we set up our Christmas tree in the office this year so that we can keep the french doors to it shut.  Hopefully next year we can move the tree back out for us all to enjoy.  He babbles all the time, but hasn't managed to say anything that I can make out into actual words.  I'm threatening him that his first word better be 'Momma'. It's going to melt my heart, I just know it!

I don't think I ever got around to doing a post about our Thanksgiving holiday, but Chase enjoyed every bite of lunch and dinner.  He devoured everything and practically licked his plate clean.  And then enjoyed some banana pudding and pumpkin pie to top it all off. He has yet to experience the deliciousness of a cupcake or a slice of cake (he was sick and napping during Austin's celebration), so I can't wait til his birthday next month!!  Speaking of, I better get on it!  I'm definitely wayyyyy behind on party planning for his 1st birthday, but I'm hoping that my three weeks off for Christmas break will be just what I need to get my butt in gear!
