14 Months

Chase will be 14 months old tomorrow! As you can see in the pictures, he loves putting miles on his walker. We're still anxiously waiting for him to take steps on his own, but he's not quite there yet. Not much has changed since the last posting, other than another tooth or two making an appearance through his swollen, sore gums. Aside from teething, he is happy on the go and loves climbing the stairs. If I turn my head just for a second, he is up the stairs (thank God for baby gates), and he can even go down them. He is so cautious about going up and down the stairs; his cautiousness may be one reason he hesitates to walk on his own. Another funny thing to note for this month is that he LOVES talking on the phone. He has accidentally speed dialed my parents and Tim's parents. Whenever the phone rings, he makes a bee line for it. I have to high-tail it to beat him to it. He'll put the phone up against his ear and say, "daddadadda." His vocabulary is still primarily the "daddadda" language. He's such a ham!
