Good Morning, Cash!!!

Hunter thought Cash might want alittle chicken broth for breakfast....who could say 'no' to this sweet face?!?!?

Toys, Ice, and our idiot dog...

Why does our American Bulldog prefer to sleep in our Westie's bed?? We, unfortunatly, don't know the answer to that question.

Who knew, on a hot sunny day, a bowl of ice could entertain 2 toddlers for more than 30 minutes??? AWESOME!!

Daddy and Hunter's newest toy!!!

Okay, so this might not exactly be 'safe'.

WOW…so we ate horribly today!

I know I’ve said this before, but recently I truly have notice how fast Hunter is growing up. And today, I very unintentionally spoiled him!! One thing I really pride myself on, is the fact that ALMOST always I offer Hunter three very healthy meals a day….I try to cover all four (or however many there are these days) food groups! But today was different….MUCH different. For whatever reason, last night at the grocery store, donuts were calling my name. This morning there were some left over, and I don’t want (need) to eat them, so I fed one to Hunter, and he thought it was AMAZING! Then I gave him some grapes to justify my poor decision! We ran some errands and I made a quick stop thru McDonald’s drive-thru and got him some chicken nuggets. Thinking I would feed them to him on our way home, we made one last stop to The Sugar Loft to order a cake. The girls in there thought Hunter was adorable, and well, he is…so they wanted to know if the could give him a cookie. Sure, why not?? Not thinking it was going to be the BIGGEST Snickerdoodle I’ve ever seen…and THE BEST! So we left, cupcakes in tow (they were too cute to pass up), I strapped him in his car seat, ready to feed him his chicken nuggets and I looked back and he was OUT. That cookie must have been delicious because he slept for 3 hrs!! He woke up eager to go outside to play, so we did. Then we came in for dinner…and well, we HAD to try the cupcakes!!! In my defense, he did eat ½ of a turkey sandwich before the cupcakes. Then, once again, I gave him some organic grapes and granola to justify it!! I’m pretty sure today I broke EVERY rule about teaching your child healthy eating habits…but oh well…Hunter sure thought his mom was pretty cool!! Back to reality tomorrow….

He was telling me "Moey" which ="More" in Hunter's language

Almost too cute to eat!

SOOO BIG!!

Playing in dirt...such a boy

When he is outside, it's almost impossible to get his attention long enough to snap a picture. This was my best attempt!

Randoms...

I feel like Hunter has grown up SO much in just the past month or so. He repeats EVERYTHING we say...which is alittle scary, and is incredibly independent (WHO did he get THAT from???) Anyway, here are a few recent pictures of our little BOY...not a baby anymore:(

We bribe him with popcorn and a movie (It usually works till he's done with the popcorn...a good two min) while Brian and I get out butts kicked doing P90X! Our newest health kick...but it's doing something, b/c today, I literally can hardly walk!!

This is Hunter's newest favorite hang out....weird, I know?!?

Breckenridge

Okay...so our ski trip wasn't 'AWESOME', but we did have fun!! I learned to ski!!! YAHOO!! BUT, Hunter got 'Acute Mountain Sickness' (if you don't know what that is...trust me, I'll spare you...it's awful) PLUS an ear infection. We were in the ER with Oxygen, lots of meds, and projectile vomiting...nice. Brian and I definitely were thrown up on IN OUR MOUTHS on Valentine's day...very romantic. It was exhausting, but definitely a trip we won't forget. Unfortunately I only got a few pictures...so here they are. It really was beautiful!

Hunter in his new bibs. We 'thought' he was better...boy were we WRONG!!

Hunter doing YOGA with Grandma and Aunt Anne

Me getting ready to hit the slopes...I know I look exhausted, it's b/c I was! But, skiing was still FUN!

SNOW!!!

For the past few days, the weather here has consisted of ice and snow!! Today we had alittle bit of 'Cabin Fever', so we went to Wal-Mart and got Hunter some snow gear! We came home and played in the snow!!! When we put the boots on Hunter, it was hilarious, because he would NOT bend his knees when he walked!! But, as you can see, after a while he got used to them, and he and the puppies had an AWESOME time!! OH, and yes, I said PUPPIES. Seriously, did we need another dog?? Let me answer that, NO!!! Brian says this is "Hunter's" puppy. Convenient, b/c guess who get's to take care of him ALL day?!?!? Well, anyway, he IS pretty cute, and he's great with Hunter. He's American Bulldog and his name is CASH.

Arissa's Photography!!!

So, of course I have to show off my handsome little son!! I know he's mine, but I think you, too, will find these pictures pretty darn cute! If you want to see Hunter's newest pictures, check out www.siteskins.net/arissas go to 'viewing and ordering' click on the link and you'll see Hunter (the 5th one down). Arissa is AMAZING. She was so great with Hunter and she had our proofs for us to see THE NEXT MORNING BY 7:30a.m. Her studio is in Overland Park(ATTENTION all my KC friends and family), but she tries to make it to the Lake often if anyone is interested! Thank you, 'Rockley's', for introducing us to her!!!
