14 Weeks

Getting bigger! At this appointment, on April 20, 2011, the babe was moving all over the place and trying to suck its thumb. The doctor asked me if I wanted to know the gender of the baby but because Jory couldn't make it to this appointment (he was taking a final) I had to tell them that we would wait until our next appointment which was 3 weeks away. Looking at the positive...that was 3 more weeks that I didn't spend buying baby stuff! This particular appointment was in the morning before work...what a great way to start the day!

We're Having A Baby!!!

Jory and I were thrilled (and shocked) to find out that we are expecting our first baby on October 15, 2011. This is a picture of our babe at 12 weeks. We could not be happier!

Richard's visit to San Diego - February 2010

Jory's Dad Richard drove his Grandparents down to San Diego from Idaho Falls so that they could celebrate Grandpa and Uncle Vern's birthday. We met them up in Palmdale for a round of golf followed by dinner and birthday cake.

It was a gorgeous day

Happy as a clam!

Me trying to get a picture with Bailey and Maggie...and a random dog in the background! I didn't realize there was a dog behind me until after we took the picture! Maybe that's why Maggie wanted me to let her go :-)

I'm 30!

Well...I have hit 30! I have to admit that it felt much more scary before the actual day got there. Once I hit my actual birthday and turned 30, I realized it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I had a lovely and relaxing weekend with some dear friends. Caitlin flew in from Seattle and Kali flew in from Hawaii. I enjoyed being absolutely spoiled! Even though I got a new camera for my birthday I don't seem to have that many pictures. I'll have to do better next year!

Caitlin flew in and surprised me for the occasion

Cheers!

Jory got me a new camera and I spent the weekend testing it out

Right before dinner and dancing (please excuse the mess in the background)

Merry Christmas!

Christmas with palm trees is different from what we are used to but we still had a delightful 1st Christmas in sunny San Diego!

We got the tree!

Making sure its tight enough

2010 Chase Family Christmas Card

Trying to get a family picture with 3 dogs isn't the easiest thing to do however, I insist on it every year! Being in San Diego, we figured we needed a picture on the beach in our San Diego Charger jerseys! I mean...the beach and the Chargers are 2 of our favorite things about San Diego after all!

We took close to 100 pictures but this is the one we went with.

Maggie being sassy!

Zoe! Turn around!

That's better!

Disneyland - November 2010

Jordan was able to come and visit us for 5 weeks while he was in between moving from Hawaii to Idaho and we enjoyed every moment we had with him! We had to visit the happiest place on earth while he was there and to make it even more special, Disney was decorated with all of their Christmas decor. It was so much fun. Disneyland just never gets old!

Greg (our cousin) and Krista came with us and we were able to celebrate Krista's birthday
