where does it go...

I found this picture and i just had to post my cute baby boy!! I feel like just yesterday he was a tiny baby. Where does the time go? Now he is a full blown toddler and somedays (only somedays) i miss that little baby. I can't complain because the picture below is like my all time favorite age. I love Cawa's age now, he is so much fun and it just keeps getting better and better. Sorry all you other moms out there but i think i have the cutest baby boy ever!!! (every mom thinks that, right!!)

It's about time!!!

While everyone was partying for the long weekend we decided to stay home and work. Normally that would totally suck but because it was our yard it was worth it. We finally decided to put in a fence. We are way to poor to get a whole fence so we decided to just get the posts. They are really the most work so now that we have them in, the rest will be easy.

I was planning on helping Brook, but luckily my parents had a free day to come up and help cause my dad was tons more help then i would have been. We owe them big time cause they really saved us a whole day of work. It would have taken Brook and I all day Sat. and Mon. But my daddy and Brook had it done by Sat night. So thank you, thank you, thank you to them!!!

Here is the finished product!!

One day when we are rich we will totally get slats for the middle. Baby steps!!!

house full of puppies

Camdens big thing is pretending that she is a puppy. She has been doing it for a while and she does it everyday. Well Cawa's is just like every little brother and copies everything big sister does. Including acting like a puppy. It is so cute, he crawls around and barks like a dog and pants. I am having a hard time remembering that my baby is 16 months old and he should be doing these things, cause he is still my baby. I just love this age, they are so smart and pick up on everything. I love it!!

Poor little man

Mr Cawa's had a bad day on Tuesday. We were making dinner and Cawa's was playing in the kitchen, unloading cupboards and drawers (the usual), he was unloading the lids from the drawer under the oven (which was on) somehow he pinched his arm in the drawer and it pushed his arm up and burned the top of his arm on the bottom of the oven. He let out a squeal and i had him out in less then 2 sec. But it still got his arm pretty bad. I felt so bad for my little boy. Just tack in on to my ongoing "Mother of the Year Award" tally! Holy H!!
It looks pretty crazy, huh!! I just hope it doesn't scar to nasty!!

Day #2, the blisters are all popped.
The crazy thing is Cawa's doesn't even act like it bothers him, he lays on it, rolls around on it and doesn't even flinch.

After it happened Cawas kept holding his arm up this way, poor little man!!

Listen close...

Mr. Cawa's can't talk much quite yet but his favorite thing is motorcycles so it's only fitting that he can sound like a motorcycle before he can talk, right? Ya, most boys know how to make car sounds pretty early, i hear so i think he is normal. But i still think it's pretty cute. He does it all the time till you whip out the camera. But if you listen close he can hear him. And don't mind Camdens beautiful singing at the end, she is in her own little world sometimes!!

craft it forward

So i saw this fun "craft it forward" idea on my friend Chantells blog and it looked really fun! So I thought i would try it out...

Here is how it works...

The first 3 people to type "Jen is trying to be crafty!" in the comment box on this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you!!!

The catch is you must re-post this on your blog and give the same offer to the first 3 commenter's who will also "craft it forward."

Here are my contingencies (thanks chantell)...
1. I make no guarantee that you will like what i make!
2. What i create will be especially for you!
3. It will be done sometime this year!
4. You will have no clue what it is!
5. I reserve the right to make you something strange!
6. you must post a pic of what you win when you get it!

Who's in!!! Lets get crafty!!!
