Cash's First Birthday



Today is Cash's first birthday. I'll admit that i did get a little sad putting him to bed last night thinking that it would be the last night i put him to sleep as a baby (i know, he'll always be my baby, but you know what i mean). So today he turns one and we've really had a great year. We are so different from one year ago, beside the obvious Chandler and I have grown as individuals and as a team. I just think how timid Chandler was picking up his newborn - not exactly sure what to do. But now he doesn't even think twice before tending to Cash's needs. Chandler has turned out to be a great dad (not that i had any doubt). I think i've done a pretty good job at being a mom too. Sometimes i get frustrated and always regret overreacting to little things but all-in-all we've gotten through it and we've got Cash - a great little boy - to show for it.
Cash is an amazing child. He is cool and laid back. He loves his circle of friends (mommy, daddy, sylvia, family) and easily warms up to new people. This morning he really did just get up and walk across the room - i guess he felt it was time. So we are dealing with a toddler now people. It sometimes seems like he is having a complete conversation with us - we just don't know what he's saying. I am really looking forward to watching him grow.
He is getting some more teeth and has a bit of a cold so his birthday isn't all perfect. He is a snotty, coughy, drooly mess but we love him to death!
