Chasey is growing so fast!

Chase is just growing and changing everyday and I want to capture a few of the special things he's doing now...
Personality: While he still very much owns the name, "Crazy Chasey" he has become a bit of a mama's boy (which I love!). He likes to be held. He notices everything Colby is doing and wants to do the exact same thing, sit in the big boy chair, drink out of a big boy cup, play with the same toys. We've reached the stage where we need to have two of everything. He is so joyful (as my mom has called him). He jumps for joy when he's excited.
Words: Mama, Dada, Fish, Baba (for bottle or paci), Truck (which he especially articulates the K), Shark, Up, Hold You, Down, Please, Dan Dan, Papa, Bro (for Colby), Buzz, Doc, Football, Ball, Bear. He makes attempts at saying everything and prefers to say the word than to sign it (a sign of being the second born I suppose).
Likes: Loves his paci, loves his bottles, loves his bears and his blankie. He loves the Leapfrog bus, Cell phones, hats, music and dancing. Helping to put laundry in the basket or trash away, he'll also put the trashcan back under the sink. He loves baths and is a crazy splasher. He is getting better about brushing his teeth and loves to check himself out in the mirror while he's naked, loves playing with the bathroom scale and toilet paper provides hours of entertainment, he loves to read. His favorite books include, First 100 Words, Big Book of Animals, Pop Up Jungle, and Dinosaur Stomp (another pop up book). He loves being outside.
Dislikes: Being changed, sitting in his highchair, wrestling with Colby, being without his paci or when we give him milk in a cup instead of a bottle, while he likes being held he doesn't like to snuggle, doesn't like sleeping with us - prefers to be sleeping in his own crib. He doesn't eat much anymore so mealtime isn't his favorite time, he is very cranky if Colby wakes him up and he can't wake up on his own.
Here are a few pictures of our happy baby...

Such a cute little boy! Hope Colby is back to 100%! Hey I was wondering if I could get that contact that I remember you telling me about for carpet cleaning? That's would be so helpfully! Thanks! Hope you have a GREAT week!
