New Words for the Week

Cash's new words are faffle for waffle, towws for toast, waatie for water, and tells you when he wants to put something "back". He also says "See!" "See!" all the time--when he wants to see something. He also really likes to show you his belly button, which he calls his "buck". Cash is still a dancer, a great sleeper (still), a huge ham and such a delight! We are loving every minute with him!

Blah, Blah, Blah...But wait, they are words!

Cash is probably saying well over 30 words now--and he knows what all of them are. He just amazes me! What can I say...I'm a proud Mommy! Some of the words he says...

Baawwl, shoe, ssside (slide), get down, get out, sit down, onnkey or sometimes it comes out as honnkey for donkey (Haha), horsey, dog, book, mulk (milk), Mommy, Da-da, Doddy(Dottie--a toy dog), Dixie, oookie (cookie), juice, boose for moose, bunkey for monkey, Meme just naming a few. Abby used to be Addie--it's more like Assie now (haha!). When asked what Santa says he says ho-ho-ho (it has a Fat Albert ring to it). Cash pretty much tries to say many of the words you ask him to say now.

White Christmas!

Can you believe it? We actually had a White Christmas!! It started snowing last night, Christmas night at about 8 o'clock. It was a very beautiful snow-with about 7 inches. Cash liked it. He really didn't pay it that much attention...he just walked and explored/played like he usually does outside. Mommy and Me.

Fun with Daddy. I think Cash is trying to catch a snowflake on his tongue.

Look at me!

Our Snowman. Time to go in.

Baking Santa Cookies

Kinsi and the boys came over to make coookies for Santa with me and Cash. We all had a great time!! This is definitely a new tradition of ours! Fun! Fun! Fun! All of the boys did an awesome job cutting the cookies out and decorating them.

Check out all the flour all over Cash's face and hand. Ha. He had a good time rolling out the cookie dough.

Our cookies before baking. Looking good. The ones with the little finger prints are Cash's handy work.

Daddy (Uncle Casey) is entertaining the boys while the cookies bake.

Reid is so proud of his decorated cookie.

A little help from Mommy.

I think they look great! Santa will love them!!

Happy Thanksgiving

Yum! Yum! Cash is a good eater so he really enjoyed his Thanksgiving meals! Our little pilgrim.

First Hair Cut

Cash finally got his first hair cut...I couldn't decide if I wanted to have it cut just yet because I kind of liked his WILD "baby" hair but, it was time and I really liked it afterward. It does make him look more like a little boy though. He did really well. He was very still (ok, kind of still--but I thought he was really good for a very active 13 month old).

Dillard Trip

We took a trip up to the Mountains to Dillard with Casey's family. What a great opportunity to really try out my new Canon Rebel camera!

Cash is checking out the animals in the pic below. He kept saying "Wooo! Wooo!" when the animals would come up to see us.

Matheson Family Pics

My good friend, Joanna, asked me to take her family pictures...It was a great shoot. She has such a beautiful family it was easy to get beautiful pictures. Thanks for the opportunity Mathesons. Here's just a taste.

Here are a couple from after the shoot.

Me and Joanna

Me and my lovely assistant and husband, Casey. Haha!

After this...we were on our way to the Jason Aldean concert! This was my birthday gift and a great one. We had a really good time at the concert!
