Happy Mother's Day

It is Mother's Day everyday in my book. I pinch Cash most days just to make sure he's really real.

Life is so sweet and I count the blessings I have been given. 1. 2. 3. husband. baby. my very own family.

7 Months Old

There has always been a spark in Cash's eyes. Everyone, friend or foe, comments on how beautiful his eyes are. Yes, they are beautiful but I think people see that contagious spark by just looking at him. His light has only gotten brighter. Cash sees his world differently now, every toy must be examined, he glances around objects to see what's beyond them, he gives loves and kisses, and genuinely loves certain things in his environment. For example, we read a few books every night before bed and he has his favorites, "Goodnight Moon," "While the World is Sleeping," and "Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny."
He makes every experience sweeter and every day brighter than the last.

Skate or Die

We've taken to Family Fun Fridays by skate boarding at Newport Elementary or our back alley. It's really never too early to teach babies to skate, right? At this point Cash skates better than he sleeps so we're focusing on his interests....

Mommy & Me Swim Lessons

Hooray!
Swim lessons finally!
I used to take our friend's kid to swim lessons at this place and would long (sob uncontrollably and long) for the day when I could take my own child to swim lessons. The mommies and babies were so cute bobbing up and down, singing songs, and twirling round (it was visual torture really). Now I'm that mommy!!! I know it sounds sooooo STUPID but my dreams came true!
Cash was a champ, like always. He was in awe at his surroundings and very overwhelmed at the sights and sounds. It was his first time going under water and floating. I was waiting for the tears when he came up from under water and the water drained out of his nose. But no tears, just a few shocked blinks like, "what the hell did you just do that for?" Curious, calm, collective, smiley, and alert....that's my Cashie pants.
