Little Boys

My baby is almost one. Just another 38 days til his 1ST birthday. I was really looking forward to his birthday until it hit me yesterday.. My baby isnt going to be a baby anymore. My little boy is becoming Mr. Independent. He loves doing everything on his own. He has been such a naughty boy lately. He will only eat if he is the one putting it in his mouth. He doesnt want mommy to feed him anymore. This has been a challenge and a very messy one at that. I swear i have to change his clothes three times a day because all the food he drops on himself. I am so proud of him and all of his accomplishments. I am so amazed by all the things he is learning everyday. Lately he has been such a meany though. When he gets mad he hits his head on the floor over and over again. If we take something away from him he will start smacking himself in the face. He thinks it is hilarious to kick us. I dont even know where he learned all of this. Logan and I are not like that to him or each other. I think he is too little to pick it up off tv. I really just dont know. I HOPE it is just a phase. I never had any brothers or close boy cousins growing up. I never knew all the things that little boys do. I am really surprised somedays. I know this is just the beginning too. I know that every birthday that passes will amaze me, that i survived another year with a son. I Love having a little boy. I am so blessed to have him as my son. Everyday with him is a great day.

New year already?

WOW! Cant believe its already 2010. This pasy year just went way to fast. This very time last year i was counting down the weeks to be done with pregnancy. This year im counting down the weeks to my babies first birthday. Cache keeps getting more fun everyday. I love him so much and i really am so blessed to be his mommy.

Cache got so many great toys for christmas. His first christmas was so wonderful. Thanks everyone for helping us make it so special. We had such a great time in Utah for the holidays I was glad we got to spend so much time with our families, but said that the time there went so fast. Its good to be back home(our home) because christmas really killed mine and Logans diet. The beginning of december we started being more healthy. I hate using the word diet because a diet is something we all start and stop, but a life change is something we keep doing. We started eating healthier. No more eating out for us. Logan is already a gym rat, but ive been working out alot more too! I lost a whole ten pounds in just a couple of weeks before going home for christmas. My goal for 2010 is to get in my old jeans. My pre-baby jeans. Im laughing at my self right now, but im going to try hard. Im almost there. Going home for christmas set me back just a little. Too many cookies i think. It wouldnt be christmas with out the candy and the tight jeans right? I really do miss Utah and ive only been home a few days. Good thing i have lots of sunshine to take my mind off of being homesick. The weather here in Monterey has been avg. 65 everyday and low 50's at night. Im really enjoying this winter because every winter after this will be full of snow. Cache is sick again. Poor baby. He never gets sick and all the sudden he has got sick 2 times in a row. I wish the viruses would have decide to spread them selves further apart. I really miss getting good sleep. The first time he had H1N1 and this time croup. Neither one has been fun, but i think he is recovering faster from the croup. We took him to the doctor last night and he gave Cache some RX to get better. He also told us to give him popsicles. (Pictures above) We found these mini fruit juice popsicle at the grocery store and they are perfect size for Cache. Hope everyones holidays were wonderful!
