I can't keep up!!!







I know, I know, it's been 4 months since I wrote an entry but we have been SOOOO incredibly busy and so much has happened that the thought of sitting down and writing it all out was a little overwhelming. Sooo, I am going to make it short and sweet! We have had so many kiddie birthday parties that I am convinced my one year old's social calendar has now exceeded mine! We went to LA in March for my big 3-0 and got to be on set at our hotel (Beverly Hilton) while they were taping a show that comes out this fall with Dustin Hoffman and etc. We grabbed drinks at Chateau Marmount (so cool) then left Chase with my parents for the weekend and drove to Vegas, stopped at Inn N Out burger on the way (two new locations opened next to us last week in Frisco and Allen and believe it or not the wait --so I heard---is up to 3 hours--FOR A BURGER! Texans are CRAZY!). My mom hooked us up with a suite at the Bellagio the first night then the Wynn Tower Suites the second night. Needless to say, it was an Awesome birthday and Cory and I enjoyed the one on one time! I also had one of my friends, Sara, come and visit from Austin which was SO nice and now that we live closer, I hope to see more of you AUSTINITES! One of the best parts about being back is that we can finally take advantage and go out to Cory's parents' lakehouse! It's so relaxing and serene out there!

In Chase news, he is doing fabulously! He's definitely ALL BOY! He's rough and tough on the outside but my sweet little boy on the inside! He LOVES basketball! He has a hoop in every room and he's become an expert at making baskets. Everytime we drive by a house with a basketball hoop outside (and almost every home in our neighborhood has one) he yells "ball". The kid LOVES balls! He actually will sit and watch a little bit of basketball on TV and enjoys it! My girlfriend even made a comment that "most boys like balls" but my kid "Loves balls and is obsessed". To be honest, I wouldn't want him any other way! I love his determination when we go to the park and he tries to throw his basketball up to the regulation 10 foot hoop over and over again (us yelling "almost" knowing he isn't even close!). I cannot wait until the day when he actually makes it!
