5 months for Cutler!

This little boy is crazy busy! Moving all over the place and he loves getting his sisters things all ready! Ronnee isn’t a huge fan of him playing with her horses but we are working on that! If he sees something he wants he will find a way to get it. It moves around like an inch worm and reaches for things.  While we were camping he started pulling his knees underneath him. He is so ready to crawl!  

He is a happy little guy and smiles and talks to everyone. He likes to play with his sister. He thinks she is hilarious! He loves to be wherever she is so he can watch her and bother her! These 2 are going to be a lot of fun as they grow older!

Sleeping for Cutler is still fun. We can count on one hand how times he has actually only woken up  once to eat in the night. Most of the time it is 2 or 3 and we still have times where it is every 2 hours! Yes I am a tired Mama! He still wants to go to bed around 7:30pm and wakes up around 6:30am for the day. And goes to nap around 9am. The rest of his naps are non consistent or non existent. Wish we could get a good schedule for this boy that involved taking a nap when his sister does! 

The last few days he has been so grumpy so I hope that he is teething so there is an excuse for this nonsense!

We sure love this little boy even with the sleep issues! He keeps us all entertained and it is so fun watching him figure out things!

He is 14lbs 15oz and 26in tall! Getting so big way to fast!

Camping weekend for Tyler's Birthday!

Tyler turned 29 on Thursday and we hit the road to go camping! All he wanted for his birthday was to go camping and fishing. He is sure is easy to please!

We went camping on the June Lake loop up by Mammoth, California. It was so beautiful up there!  The weather was great and the company was even better. We went with the Adams family and the Fedewas!  We got to the campsite and of course right across the road from us were about 50 or more mules and horses! The kids were beyond happy! Made us mothers  a little nervous because we were afraid the kids would venture on their own to go see them.  Lucky for us they didn’t but they begged every second to go and see them. We wanted to take them for a ride but they didn’t allow kids under the age of 6 to ride. So sad! They were so disappointed because petting them just wasn’t enough for them!

The kids had a blast at night wearing the headlamps and chasing each other around!

Seth and Jeri brought their little canoe thing and the kids got to float around in it!

We went for a little hike one morning to try and get to the bottom of the waterfall but couldn’t get to it. But it was still a fun little hike for the kids!

The men rented a boat to go fishing in and took the kids for little rides. For as spunky and crazy and Ronnee is she is a little scaredy cat. She had fun but had to be grabbing Tyler and would whine if he let go!

Callie is so sweet and would hold Ronnee when Tyler couldn’t. It is no wonder why she loves her so much!

Overall camping was really fun even though they only caught 1 fish! Tyler was really mad about that but at least he was out fishing! I told Tyler that I dont want to go camping ever again because it is so not relaxing for the mom’s. We still had to cook and clean and chase the kids while the men were off fishing! I am used to having more help at home! Tyler is like a little kid in a candy store when he gets in the mountains. He forgets about his family and just goes into his own world. 

Oh and one time when Ty was gone the dogs broke their rope and luckily I was there to save them from the angry man walking bye. I am so glad our dogs are nice so they didn’t do anything but sniff them. But I am sure it was a little scary for the guy because they are big dogs! 

Glad we are home but I am glad we went. The kids and the men had a lot of fun and I guess that was the point of going! 

Sunday night when we got home Cutler and I went to bed before 7:30pm and I have spent the last 2 days doing laundry and I still have to go through the camping boxes. So glad I will not be going camping again anytime soon if ever! lol

Cereal for the little man!

I was talking to a friend about when to start baby food and so it got the idea in my head so I decided to start it right then! He hates it and makes a gagging noise. I figured he wouldn’t like the cereal because it taste like crap but he didn’t even like the fresh pumpkin or the pumpkin applesauce.  Every time I go to give him a bite he would flap his arms and then dry heave! lol  I gave him the spoon even and he would put it in his mouth and take it out and gag but then put it back in. Haha Funny boy. And of course when I was feeding Cutler Ronnee needed to try. She had one bite and was done!

The “please dont give me a bite” face!

First time cereal! 005

Kids

Now that Cutler is getting older Ronnee is finding him more and more fun! She tells me that he is her Best Friend! She loves that when she talks to him he smiles at her and pulls on her!  She loves to build forts around them and lay there with him.

005 010 011 015 019 023

It is funny how she worries about him and wants to be with him more and more. Whenever Cutler smiles at her she tells me “he loves me.”  And he really does. Any time he hears her voice he looks for her. These 2 are going to be best friends! I am sure she cant wait for him to crawl and walk but I know I can! He gets into enough stuff just being able to roll around from room to room.

Ronnee has been super funny lately. She still doesn’t like to wear a swimsuit top but when we are just here at home she prefers to just go naked in the pool.

026 030 Enjoy it while you can little girl!

She is so Tyler’s child and talks to everyone. She always asks them what their name is and what are they doing. I am trying to change it to how are you doing but she prefers to be nosey and wants to know what they are doing. Probably wants to check if is something more fun then what she is doing so she can join them!

At the grocery store the other day a lady came up to talk to her because she had just talked to Cutler. And she asked Ronnee if she smiled had a pretty smile and Ronnee smiles at her and grabs the ladies face and kisses her!  No concept of personal space. Good thing the lady didn’t mind. But then Ronnee kept asking me if she could kiss her again. HAHA Yeah that is not something her mom would do but I wouldn’t put it pass Tyler.

The other day she begged and begged to take the dogs for a walk, so we attempted… they did pretty good but then Ronnee would drop the leash and I would have to run catch them. It was a nice short walk and I was glad we didn’t see anything that grabbed there attention and would cause them to drag Ronnee down the street!

I am not sure what I would do without these 2 little kids to keep me entertained. Most days I try to just laugh with them when they do things that make me want to cry! So crazy that Ronnee is almost 3!

My Flowers

I love love flowers and hope to one day have a beautiful garden like my mom and my in-laws! But for now I will just get the pretty random flowers that we happen to keep alive and help make my yard happy!

These are some pics of my in-laws front yard and flowers.
