Catching up!



So it's been a few weeks since I've updated so get ready for a long post! Hopefully you don't get too bored reading this. Easter was great this year---nothing says Easter like an Elmo Easter basket with bunny ears! The little yellow "duckie" inside is Cash's new favorite toy. He pretty much takes it everywhere with him and he likes to wear the bunny ears around his neck like a necklace.....yes, it makes Jed nervous. We had an Easter egg hunt in our back yard for Kylee, Kade and Carter.....a big thanks to Kami for coloring the eggs! Kami and I had a throw back to our childhood by writing on the eggs with white crayon before she colored them. We put $.25 or $.10 or "prize".....just like my grandma Oram use to do ....Jed said we were lame and that the kids would rather have candy......boy was he wrong......and boy was he surprised when I pulled out his change jar to pay up on the eggs!!!!

The next adventure was Cash going to Seattle with Kami and Meridith for 5 days!!!! I was a little hesitant at first but then agreed. Jed and I went to Park City for a couple of days which was awesome but by Sunday night I was happy, happy, happy that my baby was coming home!!! It's nice to have a break but even nicer to have Cashy back home. I love the picture of Cashy snuggling with my mom---so cute! That's pretty much the highlight of her life.....snuggling with grandkids. I also love the picture of Cash with the tissue blowing his nose......totally cracks me up every time he does it. Oh the simple pleasures of being a mom. A big thanks to Meridith for taking Cash on the plane.....although Kami finally admitted tonight that he was a stinker on the plane and to not be surprised if Meridith doesn't offer again.....ouch! HA! HA!---I don't blame her!

Nate and Quinn came to visit for a few days last week. Quinn of course had to go see the baby cows out at Grandpa Baadsgaards house---of course he really had twist Jed's arm to take him out there. They tell me that everytime Cash gets in the truck he jumps on grandpas lap and takes the wheel ---he's pretty sure he's driving that rig!.....now don't freak out and call child protective services---out in Spanish Fork it's totally legal for a 14 month old to drive a farm truck! Cash has started a new thing lately where he has a motor sound for everything. (I just realized I've turned into one of those annoying people who all they talk about it their kids on their blog---lame. oh well.)

At last but not least a few pictures that I almost didn't post....why you might ask....because my nanny (aka Kami) didn't match Cash's clothes very well this day----how embarassing! I pride myself on a matching kid! I mean seriously Kami---what kind of aunt, I mean nanny are you?????----grey shirt with blue sweatpants---yikes! Kami took the boys to the park the other day (I know you all wish you had a nanny like her) and they loved it, as you can tell from Kai's face....actually you can really tell from Cash's nice belly laugh he's got going on! I love that kid! Hopefully some day he'll have a nice cackle to go along with that belly laugh.

The end.

Gangster Cash

So it's no secret that Cash is a little runt.....I put these 12 month pants on him the other day and they so cute---but still to big but I let him wear them anyway. Well, about half way through the day he was watching Yo Gabba Gabba of course and his pants feel right down! I think it's pretty darn funny actually.......he's going for the gangsta' look! I'm happy to let you all know that I did figure out how to tighten them with those little elastic sinchers inside the pants---a big thank you to whoever invented those!!!!
