Hanging out with Uncle Bobby at Grandma Peggy and Grandpa Bills house

Lounging watching Sesame Street

How creative....

While out getting flowers, Cash noticed a rock water fountain and asked what it was. I told him and we went on. When we got home and were planting flowers, I noticed he was moving rocks onto the lawn. He told me that he had made a rock fountain like at Wal*Mart! Cool, huh?!?


Last week, I was in the fixing my hair and Cash was playing with some candles. He told me that he built a robot! Check it out, can you see it?? It's in the shape of a stick figure. Such an artistic boy!

FINALLY time to plant some flowers!

Cash and I were finally able to get out and plant some flowers about 2 weeks ago. The weather was warm enough (although, I have had to pull them inside as the weather over night has dipped below freezing several times since...). He picked out his own orange flowers to plant, and had a fun time playing in the dirt. His favorite was playing in the hose with the watering can!

Dillon with Nana

Mom came over yesterday and we made a trip over to Dillon to snoop out the Patagonia Outlet. It was such a BEAUTIFUL day out! We packed a lunch and stopped at a park to play and eat before shopping. It was such a nice day, and I can't wait for a repeat of these kind of days :)

Baby brother got a ni-night! Cash has his *beloved* ni-night that MUST go everywhere with him. We cart it in the car whenever we leave, and he can't go to bed without it. It is a basic thermal blanket with satin trim...the ones we all had as babies. IF you can find them they are only like 12 bucks. Problem is, you can't hardly find them anymore! I searched and searched for 2 yrs to find a backup ni night and haven't found one that has real satin on it. Aunt Tina found one that looks the same but isnt satin trimed, it's some fake stuff (I should know...I was severly attached to pink me-me for YEARS!!) that never was up to par for Cashy either. I fear the day we leave ni night at home on an overnight trip or leave it at Nanas house. I would literally drive back home to get it, or to wherever it was left. So since I got pregnant I have been on the search for a ni night for the new baby. Some raving idiots on EBAY are selling them for upwards of $100...um...not paying that for a $12 blanket! So we were in Missoula for Mother's Day. I was in Dillards shopping for shirts for Cash when low and behold...BLUE NI NIGHT with REAL SATIN!!! I am happy to say that for the price of $12.99, baby brother now has his own! Best part is they are different. There was one pink and one blue, and now looking back on it, I could have made a sweet profit had I picked up that pink one and joined those raving mad women online by selling it! I am sure there is a desperate mother out there that would have paid top dollar for a replacement...(let's face it, if Cash totally lost his, I would totally pay anything for a new one!!)

Cash is getting into the "I can do it myself" stage. Today it was making chocolate milk. He said he had a tummy ache and it would make him feel better. How could I argue with that?! So I snapped a shot (on the floor...not an easy task these days I might add...) He watched a little Dora and downed the super chocolatey milk in about 5 minutes. Afterwards he boasted "my tummy is much better now!"

Here is a shot of my 20 week belly. I don't post this because I want to show off my belly. I just want to remember what I looked like with this little guy growing in my tummy. I feel like I don't have a lot of pic of me pregnant with Cash, and I guess sometimes you just want to remember. As I look back on this blog over the last 2 yrs, there are so many activities or just snippets of our life that have become a distant memory already. I am glad to have this blog to look back on!

The other pic on here is just Cashy being lazy this am. He wore underware for about 3 hrs this morning and peed twice in the potty before having an accident. We are making progress. He is much more enthused to pee for BJ than me...kinda doesn't work out since I am home with him all day tho...we will get there!

Little BROTHER!

We had our 20 week ultrasound on Thursday. After all the checking of the heart, kidneys, bladder etc...baby showed us that he's a BOY!! Cashy is getting a little brother! Baby was flipping and flopping all over the place and was being a bit stubborn for some of the measuring procedures. Everything looks great and he weighs 12 oz already. Cash was 10 oz at the same 20 week check-up. So we shall see how big he ends up being. I had a gut instinct all along that this one was also a boy, and I was right! It works out since we have all boy clothes and toys are our house. And considering he has two boy cousins, we won't have to buy much! This makes four little boys in the family in two years time! We are fully on our way to a baseball team :)

I am so over the moon to have another little man in the house. I am so lucky to have Cash in my life and I love all the "boyish" things that he does, I can't wait for this little guy to bring even more joy and love into my life! My life in the future will be full of baseball games, and dirt bike riding but I can't wait! I truly believe you are meant to have what you get (boy or girl) and even though I am pretty girly myself, I love being a Mom to little boys :) We just can't wait to meet him now!

Well Hello Sunshine!

It was almost 60 here today!!! We got to go outside in the backyard and play in the dirt :) The grass is beginning to turn a shade of green and lose the brownish tint. Cash insisted on wearing his mittens outside. Poor guy is so used to having to bundle up to go out to play!

Easter

Easter morning we were at our house. Cash woke up and wasn't too interested in his Easter basket. He did enjoy his M&M's the most. We had breakfast and then headed over to Bozeman. Nana had Easter baskets for all 3 boys, and an Easter Egg Hunt for the older two. They were pretty excited once they discovered that candy was inside the eggs :) Mom made a fabulous lunch for everyone. She always goes out of her way to make the table so festive and fun. The boys even got new dishes from Pottery Barn! An adorable pattern of Peter Rabbit. There is one pink plate, wonder if we will ever have a girl in the family to eat of it?!
