The Cochrans: Chase's First Spring Break!

We had a great Spring Break together! Thankfully, Drew got done early most days so he was able to enjoy it with us. I put all of Spring Break into one post, so this is going to be a long one...we were just having too much fun all week to stop and update the blog!

We started our Spring Break last Saturday...we went to Montgomery to my good friend Sara's house and we had so much fun! Sara and her husband, Davis, moved to Montgomery almost 2 years ago, so our little group of college friends hasn't gotten together quite as much since then. So, Meredith, Mary Laura, Drew, Chase, and I all met Sara, Davis, and Traci at Sara and Davis's house for lunch. We had a great time and it was so much fun for all of the kids to meet! In this picture, Chase is having fun playing with Sara's youngest son, Dawson...

Here, Chase is having a great time with Traci's little girl, Amelia....

Here is the group of us (Mary Laura, Traci, Amelia, Me, Chase, Sara, Dawson, Davis, and Meredith)....

After we left Sara's, Drew, Chase, and I went to visit my cousin Jenn who also lives in Montgomery. Karl and Jack had gone to see Karl's family in Pheonix City for the weekend, but we were excited that we got to see Jenn and Annie Elizabeth!

On Tuesday, Alex came to our house for the morning...we played at the house and then went to the playground! Anna and Drew met us there after a while, and everyone had a great time! Here is Chase trying to walk with Drew...

Chase and Drew sliding...Chase had a look on his face like he wasn't so sure about the playground....

Chase and Alex playing on the tire swing...they had fun!

Chase swinging....he is very serious!

Alex going down the slide!

Alex and Anna playing...

Drew got a golf ball out of his car and Chase liked playing with the ball on the slide...he LOVES balls these days and that is definitely his favorite word!

Chase crawling on the little bridge...

On Wednesday, we had fun playing out in the yard...Chase loves playing in the balls and sliding and swinging on his little playset!

No matter how many balls are around him...he still likes Ruby's tennis ball the most!

Chase liked to put the ball at the top of the slide and watch it go down...

His pants got dirty, so we are just sporting the diaper for the camera!

The sun was in Ruby and Chase's eyes :)

Chase loves to slide!

Chase had so much fun on his swing...he likes to go high!

Whenever we say "Hello", Chase picks up the phone (or whatever else may be close by), holds it to his ear, and says "Hi"

On Thursday, we went to the Zoo! We bought the year long family pass, but this was our first time to go. We had a great time! Chase slept for most of the Zoo trip in the stroller, but he enjoyed it when he woke up! (and Drew and I enjoyed it the whole time!) This was right after Chase woke up...

He made sure that he woke up for his Mama's favorite...the seals- he liked them!

Playing at home after the Zoo...

He has started cruising a lot more...here he was going from the coffee table to Drew...

Always have to include a picture of "Ruby girl"...

Chase loves to climb on his chair, and he is very into opening drawers :)

The chair is very often used as a means to an end....

He will usually point to the light now when you ask him to...

On Friday, Chase got his first haircut and he did such a great job! The lady who cuts my hair, Marcella, cut his hair. Marcella has cut my hair since I was a little girl...she cuts my parents' hair too, and she and her family have truly become special friends of my family through the years. So, it was really special for her to give him his first haircut. He sat in Drew's lap the whole time and was so sweet. He really loved when she gave him a sucker, and his haircut looks great!

Chase and Marcella after his haircut...he is still hanging on to that sucker!

We wrapped up Spring Break on Saturday and Sunday playing out in the yard and spending as much time outside in the beautiful weather as possible! Chase is playing in my t-shirt and his sunglasses!
