Weekend!

Well its Sunday night... which mean back to work tomorrow! Yuck! I think that thay may be the first time that I have ever thought that. I am losing my motivation for work right now, I found out last Monday that my boss, who I honestly believe is the most incredible person that I have ever worked for is moving to a new position in a couple of weeks! This devastates me more than anyone knows. I also think that we have no idea who will take his place is a little nerve racking as well.

The weekend was great, the weather was great. Saturday I had a baby shower to go to and then Cash and me spent some time at the mall. Who would have ever thought that Cash liked the mall. He had a blast running in and out of the stores and back. He rode the merry go round and I do not think that it was his favorite thing to do, but maybe next time.

Saturday Toby's mom came into town and we met her and Toby's aunt and uncle for dinner. Toby's uncle has been in Iraq and was just home for a short 2 week visit and we were so excited that we got to see him. Here is a picture of the boys after dinner the other night.
Toby's mom brought her famous Easter bunny cake with her this weekend, so we enjoyed snacking on it today. Cash also got to eat his first big person ham sandwich for lunch today, and he ate every bite of it. Well, its off to bed for now, for a work week, that I am not looking forward to.

Easter Party

Tomorrow is Cash's Easter Party at school. Once again for the class party just like a Valentine's I signed up to make cupcakes. But this time I decided that plain white was going to be no fun for Easter. So last night I made my cupcakes, and tonight I had to put icing on them. I decided that they needed to be festive! Anyone who knows my mom knows that she goes all out at the holidays so I decided that I would make icing in 4 different colors for the occasion. Maybe I am following in some of her footsteps afterall. AND by the way when you use a cake mix to make mini-cupcakes... it makes a lot!! A lot as in 56 little cupcakes! I also signed up to bring the Easter goody bags for the kids in his room. I bought cute little Easter sacks and filled them with little bubbles and things that little kids would enjoy like bouncy balls, and squeaky toys.

As you can see I am quite proud of how everything turned out. I am starting to feel like one of those homeroom moms... I guess you can have the career and be a super mom at the same time.. the only thing that I am learning that it then leaves no time for sleep! Well I hope that Cash enjoys his party tomorrow. They are going to have an Easter egg hunt also.... the kids better watch out. Since Cash is bigger than them he may run over them to get the eggs before they can.

Well, now it's almost 10 and I still need to start some laundry so I have some clean clothes to wear to work... how do people do this with more than one kid??? Any answers???

The Many Faces of Cash

So today, I tried to get some good pictures of Cash outside, I tried and tried and tried to get one of him smiling and it never worked. Instead, I ended up with him and some crazy expressions on his face. The one above, he looks like he is looking for someone out of the corner of his eye.

This was he was too amused with what the dog was doing to give me a smile. He has figured out that when I get the camera out he looks the other way! Its so frustrating. But it did give me a good view of his bottom teeth. I just wish some more would come in.

He looks deeply concerned in this picture... maybe he heard that Hillary Clinton was running for president! Thats enough to scare or concern anyone! So at the end of the day I still had no picture of him smiling, instead I ended up with the many facial expressions of Cash Dalton Henson~ Maybe this was better than smiles anyway!

Sandbox!

Toby built Cash a sandbox about a month ago, and we would go outside and let Cash play but as you can see it did not have any sand for it. We did not realize that play sand for kids was so expensive until after the sandbox was built. It was going to cost over $100 just to put sand in it, we decided we would wait until it got warmer and buy some then when he would be outside more. Cash still wanted it now. As you can see in the picture Cash is giving Toby directions and saying, "Dad where's my sand??" Well last night the Sand fairy (paw paw and grandma) came and brought Cash sand for his sandbox as a surprise!

Cash was very unsure of the sand when he got in it. He was hard for him to stand in and keep his balance! He was really wobbly, but he likes it... so this summer its going to be about building the best sandcastle ever!!!

Anyone want to come help????

All BOY!!

Doesn't he look crazy in this picture? His eyes are crazy... I have decided tonight that I am going to have my hands full with this little guy as he grows up... tonight while taking his bath he decided that it would be better if the water that was in his bathtub was on the bathroom floor instead. He has a big cup that he plays with in the bathtub, and he would fill it with water and then dump it on the bathroom floor, as I would scream STOP CASH, he would look at me smile and then giggle. It is so hard to stay mad at the little guy when he does that, he looks so adorable. I now know why people end up letting their kids walk all over them. This picture you can see his evil little look in!! Toby and I have been watching supernanny on tv trying to get some tips, looks like if this contuines we may be calling her to come and help us!!

I also came to realization that Cash is all BOY!! As you can see he has figured out how to crawl on Toby's back and then stand up. He thinks that it is the best thing ever.. little does he know that he is going to fall and break his head open when he falls. He must have crawled and stood up on Toby's back 100 times tonight before I finally told him bath time! Now, when you hear the words Bath Time around our house and your name is Cash, you stop what you are doing that very moment and run to the bathroom and stand at the bathtub and start taking your clothes off, so if Cash ever decided to be a stripper later on in life, his code word to get his clothes off will be BATH TIME!!

He is constantly climbing on everything, jumping, yelling, getting dirty... doing all the things that little boys do... times like this I wonder what a girl would have been like, would she just be sitting in my lap quietly reading a book? Instead we have crazy wild moments in our household right now... and for the next 18 years ... so anytime anyone wants to babysit.. he is all yours.. but you better have some energy, because this little guy never stops!!

Texas Weather

Today, I took off work and Cash I went to visit my dear friend Suzy from high school. When we left this morning it was warm and we were in short sleeve shirts, when we left it was freezing. He is a picture of Cash all bundled up when we got home because he wanted to play outside. I have decided this is why my family is always sick, you can never be prepared to be dressed correctly for this weather! It's nuts I tell you!!

Texas Weather! You never know what you are going to get.

A day at Grandma's and Paw Paw's

Cash spent Sunday at my parents, so Toby and I could spend the day working in the yard... we bought a house outside of town because we did not want to live in a neighborhood, we wanted space, well our 4 acres gave us space along with a great big yard to keep up with! We spent Sunday raking leaves and cleaning out trees what a workout!! As you can see Cash had more fun than we did, he got to go to the park and have a blast!

Now that's a look of excitement!!!

I love this picture! I think that he must have been playing hide and seek, and he was hoping that no one would find him, I think that he thought that he was hidden but big suprise to him they had found him. Thanks for watching me on Sunday Cash says that he had a blast!! If you notice in the top picture and the bottom one Cash has his tounge out, thats a trait he gets from his dad, whenever Toby is thinking about something really hard his tounge comes out! Like I say, he is a minitoby!!
