It seems like it has been taking forever for it to get warm-so when it was (amazingly!) 85 degrees on Monday we decided to have a little fun in the sun. I put the sprinkler out and Logan had fun playing in it and running through it. She was a little timid at first, but then she decided it was fun. I may or may not have laid out too-and got a little burned. oops

FINALLY, A WARM SUNNY DAY

Oh my goodness I meant to do this post 2 weeks ago. Where does the time go?? Life sure has been different with two kids as opposed to one. Ever since Cache has gotten out of the newborn (sleep all the time stage) I have been alot busier. He requires alot more attention than Logan did at his age. Simply put.. he cries alot.. and likes to be held alot, and doesn't sleep very well. It makes it hard for me when I want to get something done. Sometimes I can't imagine having more than two kids.. I look at my sisters in law and others and wonder how they do it and always manage to have it "all together"?? They are amazing moms. Sometimes I find myself exhausted with the lack of sleep, crying children, keeping the house clean, changing 500 diapers a day. (no Logan is still not potty-trained) It is not until Logan asks me in her sweet voice"Are you okay mom?" or tells me she loves me or I get a cute dimple smile from Cache that gives me the smallest sense of pride in what I am doing as a mother. Don't get me wrong. I do love being a mom-and I think my kids are the greatest things on earth-but sometimes it can be challenging. Anyway-I don't know why I went on such a long tangent. Motherhood is great-just hard sometimes. I wanted to post a couple pictures of our last trip to Utah. Actually I have been to Utah twice now since my last post. The first time I went because Perry was out of town for a week, and Perry and I went this past weekend (short trip) to go to the supercross in Salt Lake. It was actually really fun-besides the fact we froze our hinies off. Needless to say we got rained on a little-well not a little-more like a downpour. Thank goodness for a large poncho to cover our laps. What is up with the weather lately? I say bring on the heat already!! Anyway, we had a good time in spite of the weather.
Here are a couple pics
Love these of Logan on my sister Lauri's horse. I didn't think she would dare get on the horse-but she did and she loved it.

4 MONTHS
I cannot believe my little guy is 4 months already! (actually he is almost 4and1/2 now) I meant to do this post before leaving town but didn't. Anyway here is a quick update on our little buddy.
-Took him to the Dr. yesterday and he was 13 lbs 3 oz. and 24 inches long. (10-25th percentile) not big but definitely bigger than Logan was at his age.
-Still has a hard time sleeping. Usually wakes up to eat 2-3 times a night. (I also have to give him his bink all the time) Some nights are okay-some are horrible. Hopefully he will start sleeping well and I will stop feeling like a walking zombie. bleh-not used to to it because Logan slept the whole night from 3 months on.
-Loves to have attention.. Perry called him our A.D.D child the other day (attention deficiency disorder) He loves to be played with and talked to all the time.
-He is the spit up King..I keep thinking it will get better the older he gets but it doesn't. I have never been puked on so much-he definitely keeps me busy with laundry.
-He is so ticklish and loves to giggle.
-Yesterday he had his first taste of baby cereal. He wasn't sure what to think.. Most of it ended up on his shirt.
-Loves the sound of the blowdryer. He will stop crying the instant I turn it on.
-He has the biggest dark blue eyes.
-Right now he has a definite grandpa hairdo. Not much on top or the sides but a small dark strip in the back. (He is taking after his grandpa)
-My favorite thing about him is his smile. His dimples are the cutest.
-He has definitely been a challenging baby sometimes but he is the sweetest little guy and I wouldn't trade him for the world.

HAPPY EASTER
Hope everyone had a good easter. I know we did. It was fun this year having Logan be so much more interactive. She had a blast finding eggs, painting eggs, eating candy..the whole bit. Maybe next year Cache will join in on the fun too. WARNING: picture overload
All the cousins had fun coloring eggs at Aunt Brittani's house.

FISHING WITH DAD
My husband talked me into going camping last weekend, even though it is still March-yeah we're nuts but it was still fun anyway. While we were there Perry went to get a fish licence and came back with an adorable princess pole for Logan. She thought she was in heaven (princesses are one of her favs right now) When we asked her what she was going to catch she informed us that she was going to catch a crocodile. She constantly cracks me up. Anyway-we went fishing for a couple hours and much to our dissapointment we didn't catch a crocodile or a fish..oh well..At least it was nice to enjoy the sun. Here are some pictures of fishing.
