What a great week!

Well time has flown, and we are about to head back to Utah! We had a great week this past week in Florida and Georgia. The wedding was perfect and it was so much fun to visit with all the family. There are so many grankids now it makes it so much fun. Here are a few pics of the rest of the time spent in Florida! Thanks to everyone for a great time!

Trunk or Treat!

Trunk or Treat

2007

After trick or treating Chase was ready to get in his jams and go to bed!

Tonight was Trunk or Treat at the Daytona Beach Ward. It was quite the experience getting ready. I told Jathan that I would do his hair, (he was a vampire). I had a great idea of what I thought I could do and it seems that me and him were not on the same page. I spent about 20 minutes in the bathroom with him going over hair styles that I thought would complete the look he was going for.....No Such Luck! It ended with him pretty much letting me know I was fired. He stayed in the bathroom for about another half hour and continued to work on it, finally he came out with his finished product letting everyone that know that his hair was hideous. It was so funny! Michelle finally went in and dragged him out of the bathroom. Wow....us Coates sure do like the mirrors! Here is some pics of the evening. It was a great time....even if there was not enough food to go around!

I'm in Florida!

From This....

To 85 Degree Weather in Florida!

Chase and I flew into Florida yesterday. I was very nervous to see how Chase was going to react for his very first flight, and he did a great job! He slept the whole first flight until we got into Denver, and then played and slept through part of the flight to Florida! I was so happy and releived that it was such a good experience for us! When we got into Florida, Aunt Jan and Michelle were there waiting to see Chase. Needless to say he has been passed around and loved on since we have been here. Here are a few pics f our first day in Florida...I figure I better post them a little at a time! Picking up Jathan from school today. It was crazy hat day and all the kids had to make a hat at home and bring it in. As you can see Michelle and Mike worked hard making this hat. It was so cute, and he was so excited.

After we picked up Jathan we sat on the river and watched the space shuttle go off!

Waiting for the shuttle to go off!

Meeting up with some old friends!

Grandaddy got Chase a high chair/rocking chair and is determoned to have him it in it.

Hee Haws and Pumpkin Patch- 19 weeks

Well Chase was 19 weeks old yesterday. As you can all see from his doctors appointment earlier this week he is growing like a weed. He is such a cutie and Chris and I have so much fun with him. He loves our weekend date nights and is glad that he is included. We always get lots of attention from tables near by...what can I say attracts a lot of attention with all that cuteness! He is just having lots of fun and is super active! I think his favorite game is rolling over when I am not around. I have been trying to catch it on video for weeks now, and the only time he does it is when I leave the room. Silly Boy! Once Chase was feeling better from his shots we decided to have a family night at the Hee Haw farms. We went with Ted and Sara and their family. So we bundled up the baby and strapped him in his little carrier and were off!
The first place we went to had a haunted forest and a corn maze. The guy was a friend of Ted and Sara's so we got in for free. We did not think the "Spooks" were in so we headed off into the haunted forest. It was so funny because Chris kicked open this door and out jumped an hairy monster. Chris jumped and the twins started screaming. It was hard to get them to go through the rest. Chase just sat and watched all the action. It was a lot of fun, we headed to dinner at like 10:30 and the kids were just

Big Family Pic before heading into the maze!

Chase's 4 month apointment

We had Chase's 4 month appointment today! He was a trooper and delt with the shots very well. The doctor had only good things to say about our little guy. He said that he was very healty and strong, you can tell that by his giant rolls on his legs.

Weight- 16lbs 11 oz- 81th Percentile

Height- 26 inches- 85th Percentile

Chases big weigh in.

Waiting for the doctor!
Chase got bored and decided to have a little bit of his bottle while waiting! As you can see, he loves to use his feet!
This does not work as well as I thought...

Conference Weekend

Conference Weekend

It was a great conference weekend! There are always two traditions that we stick with, girls night and conference breakfast! It was fun spending time with everyone and enjoying all the yummy food! What more could you ask for....Good food and Friends!

My Favorite Boys! (17 Weeks Old)

I LOVE MY FEET!

Chase was 17 weeks old yesterday! I feel as if just in the past week he has gotten so big and is fitting in all of his clothes differently. It is always fun to watch a new dad with their babies. Chris is such a great dad and I love to watch them together. Anytime Chris sits down to play the panio I always sit Chase next to him so he can watch him play and he loves it. He bounces up and down and makes lots of Chase noises. Chris will always sit him in his lap and they play together and I just think it is so cute. What I love the most now is watching Chris put Chase to sleep. He uses the Ssshhhing method and it works like a charm. The best part about it is when Chris does get him to sleep and lays him down he dances around the house and wants high fives! I love it and think it is the cutest! What can I say, I have two cute boys!

Chase is just so cute! He loves putting his feet in his mouth, his fingers, and basically anything that is close enough to get in his mouth. He is just one happy baby, and Chris and I could not be happier! He keeps us entertained!Chris and Chase playing the panio!My cute little basketball player! (In a couple of years)

Chases new toy...the excersaucer!
