He's a big boy now.

Cache Money.

I bought a book the other day that is called, If I Could Keep You Little. I bought it because  I think of the many conversations we've had about you staying little. You always have very strong, valid reasons about why that is not possible.

Today you told dad, "I do my chores, I pull up my own pants, I can dress myself and you still won't let me drive." 

One thing is for certain, we LOVE you. We love how helpful you are. We love how silly you are. We love how caring and sweet you are.

The other day you and I were playing football and you clocked me right in the face. It kinda hurt. You said in the sweetest voice, "Mom, I told you to catch it." Then you ran over to me, gave me a kiss on the cheek and said, "Sometimes you just have to do it again. This time catch it." And then you threw it to me the way threw to you when you were a baby. I caught it and you cheered for me like I just won the super bowl. Thank you for that  :) Just so you know, your mom does know how to play sports :).

I never want to forget that you love to talk in third person right now. When I correct you, you will say, "No, I love to talk in the fird person!" So I let you. You can be crying your eyes out, pause, look at me and say, "I think he's way sad." Then you'll go right back to crying.

I also want to remember that you are very aware of relationships. For awhile now you have been coming up to me saying, "Mom, you're husband is home from work!" or "Dad, you're mom has sleeping bags at her house!"

You are finally sleeping in your own bed! HOORAY!

You also change your clothes about 5 times a day. Drives me nuts. You climb your closet, pull down clothes (or get them from the dresser) and you'll come out with the proudest smile. Your shorts will be on backwards and you'll hold out your shirt for me to put on, or you'll put it on yourself.

You LOVE to wear socks. You even wear them to bed.

You LOVE sports. You can kick the soccer ball up the steep hill in our neighborhood. You are fast. You can throw like a champ. You can slam dunk on your little tikes hoop and Uncle Tj is helping you become quite the golfer. :)

You say amazing prayers and for the most part you listen to me.

I think you're great. I am blessed to have you!

I love you a whole lot!

Spring Break 2012

I can't believe April is just a day and a half from ending. Spring Break was amazing. AMAZING.

First of all it started out with Easter Sunday, then, my cousin returned home from his mission. Then Dorie had her baby then Darcie had her baby :)

Momentous, right?!

Cache has had babies on his mind ever since he asked me about Auntie Dorie's tummy and I told him there was a baby in there. He was a little bit concerned but then he decided it was really cool and he couldn't wait to meet his two new little cousins!

Cache loved hanging out with Gwenie! Thanks Darcie for letting Gwenie hang out with us!:)
