Ever since Chase has learned to crawl and pull himself to a standing position (he started doing this at the beginning of October), that is all he wants to do! He cannot stand being restrained, which is making it almost impossible to get any errands done! He cries when he is stuck in his carseat, he doesn't like being put in a shopping cart, and I won't even discuss the fits he throws when in his stroller. Changing his diaper and getting him dressed are THE most stressful events in my life! (okay that may be an exaggeration, but it is quite stressful for me) He throws a fit, rolls over and starts crawling away. He also likes to take off his diaper now. But even though this stage of his life is stressful for me, I am still highly enjoying it. I mean, it is pretty funny that he takes off his own diaper. And if an accident happens on my carpet, big deal, that is why I have a carpet cleaner. And I love that he loves to move around and be so active. Hopefully he keeps that up throughout his life!
Here are some pictures of him moving around the house:
Standing in his crib. Luckily his ability to stand up in his crib still hasn't interfered with his sleep.
Playing with his toy...I love how absorbed he gets with his toys! Although I do have to admit I feel like I should be playing with him more often. I usually take advantage of these times to get stuff done!
He loves the vacuum! I think it's time to get him his own vacuum soon...Playskool makes a cute one.
Opening and closing drawers
He loves going into the mudroom. I have since put up a gate...one time he went in there and started rubbing his hand on the bottom of one of Jason's shoes...gross.
This is the first time he pulled himself to a stand! He was so proud of himself. Now he is starting to get brave and will let go of whatever he's holding onto so he's standing by himself.
I caught him in action!

He's getting so big! And he looks taller, too. It might be time to lower his crib--soon he will try to climb out!
Seriously...what a little chub! I LOVE IT! I just want to squish him! What a fun time to watch him grow and explore!
he's getting so big! how fun!
so glad jason will be home more!
He is such a cutie! My kids were never happy unless they were moving around. When it came to diaper changing, with both of them, I perfected the move of holding them down with one of my legs over their body so they couldn't roll away.
