Filling up our Days

As I write this, I'm feeling a little sad...I looked at Cash this morning and realized that he doesn't look like a baby anymore. He's a walking, jabbering, climbing, happy, chubby little toddler. Where did my baby go? He will be one in a month. I remember his birth date like yesterday. Wow. Time flies...

Dane had been begging Daddy for a baseball mitten. Daily he would ask if we could go get one. Ross was stoked. As soon as we found out Dane was a boy (in my belly) he was looking forward to the day that they would play catch together. He ran right out and got the cutest little mitt and ball for Dane.
Here he is showing it off. He LOVES it!

Daddy's dream!
And our little sportsters, too. Anything he can play, is his most favorite!

This picture is so sweet to me. He looks so innocent and grown up.
I think this might have been right after I told him he couldn't do something. He said, "seriously Mom?" What?? Then, "that's obnoxious." Hmmm...

This day was quite busy for us. Here we are going for another walk.
The boys were so cute~talking to each other most of the walk.

We were out to eat one night with Grandma and Grandpa Greenwald and the boys were a bit restless after dinner. So we came outside. This happened immediately. Whatever. They just rode home nakey!

Their little squeals of delight were music to my ears.
Everyone always says it's the simple things--it really is.


We hit up the Sherburne County Fair for what Dane loves most in the world right now. Games. Games of any kind. But games where he can win junkie carnival toys are the best!

The game won him a big stuffed pug. Of which he named Monkey.

"Hi guys! I'm a pilot!"
Every time around he would scream 'hi guys' and wave with a huge smile.
Ross said, "that's the cutest thing in the whole world." First the kid melts my heart then the daddy. I love it.


Finally a warm enough day for my cold blooded crew. We pulled out the pool and sprinkler early. They were having a blast. As soon as Ross got home from work, he joined in on the fun!

Such great action shots!

Life!

Nothing much new with the Greenwald Crew. Just LIFE!

Dane received a fishing pole that's "just perfect for me guys," for his 2nd birthday. He broke it shortly there after, but Daddy (mr. fix-it) fixed it. Anyway, Dane has mastered the cast. He always asks us to watch his cast. He really is good at it. He doesn't try to catch anything, but he casts quite often. This is his favorite place to cast from.

On the 4th of July this year, we got together at my parent's house with all of my family. We celebrated the July birthday's, as well. My brother's 3 kids were all born in July, my cousin Hannah and my Uncle Bob.

Here are the cute cakes my Mom made.
Hunter turns 5. Hannah turns 6. Ava turned 3 on July 4th. Uncle Bob...and Cooper turned 1.
It was a fun day. I love watching all of the little kids together. I didn't get much for pictures as the kids are craaaazzy!

Cooper really enjoyed his first cake experience. So cute and funny watching him dive in.
Even funnier watching him sit there all dirty.

That afternoon we let Dane nap extra long to keep him up for fireworks. He was so excited. He made it up until they started, but was so tired. When he gets over tired like that, he's quite annoying. Oh well. He had fun and so did we!

We could see fireworks from every direction off of our deck.
Here is Dane watching.

I like this picture. So funny.


Now that Cash is getting bigger, it's been fun to go to the park with both of the boys. (more fun for me if Ross is with!!)

Mommy and Cashie!

I tried really hard to get them to both look, but this was the best we could get.

Cash and Daddy!

Swinging Brothers!

Loving the swing!
