I know, it's been a while..........

It's a rough life!!!! Cache sleeping so peaceful. Honestly, I thought our family was going to die. By this picture you would think he was an angel! Well, aside from his reflux, Cache was very colicky. We all took turns walking the floor with him. He has been so demanding of my time it was hard to do anything. I don't know what happen, and knock on wood, but he is over it! He is now a total angel!!!!

And speaking of angels, we had Caleb's 10th birthday party!!! Twelve 10 year old boys racing

go-carts. Luckily everyone walked away in one piece. What the hizell was I thinking!!!!

And football has come to an end! We survived that, too. Both boys play and had great seasons. This is Caleb's first year in tackle. He was such an asset to the team, maybe it was because he is literally a foot taller than everyone else



And my little Sawyer..... I caught him putting on Caleb's football gear and playing tackle by himself. He cannot WAIT until he gets to play tackle. Even though he plays flag football, every now and again he had an "accidental tackle" HMMMMMM

I AM A SLACKER

WOW..... Blogging has really taken a back seat! I have been so preoccupied with caring for my new little rug-rat and running two active boys around, that I have neglected posting! So I thought I would take a second and put some pictures of Cache on here, since he is 6 weeks old today and changing way to fast!!
Cache, ready for church. He hated it!!!!
Terry's birthday party. Wasn't much to it this year, just a homemade cake decorated specially by the boys. (Lots of frosting)
Cache sleeping. Note the bib!!!!! He is a spitter. He has reflux really bad, so he is always wearing a bib to catch the spit up.
And Cache hanging out. He is so fun to have a round. I forgot what it was like having a newborn around. He is so sweet, spit up and all!!!!

What have I gotten my self into.......

Here is Caleb playing his first year in Tackle Football. He is doing awesome. As a mom, I am struggling watching him get hit and pushed around. I don't like that part a bit! Especially when he gets hit so hard he loses a tooth.....
I couldn't believe it! The kid had his mouth guard in and still lost a tooth! It didn't bother him to much.
And Sawyer... he is playing Flag Football. He loves every minute of it. He has played for about 3 years and this season he got to play up a team. Juggling both boy's practices and games has been crazy. I keep asking myself why I signed up for this! But they are such good little football players I had no choice. And they are such good big brothers.....
I have more help from them than I know what to do with. They are so willing to do anything for Cache.

And Cache.... He looks so peaceful in this picture but let me tell you, something so small has me running ragged! Wow, it has been a while since I have had a baby around, I feel like I have been out of the loop!
Life with 3 very active boys is crazy! What have I gotten myself into.......

Welcome Home, Baby Boy

Friday, Aug 29, 2008 at 7:49 am Cache Lee Richards made his appearence. Yes, he was late by one day. Earlier that week I went to my doctors appointment to find out that I was going to have to have a c-section. Apparently Cache was so comfy that he had no intentions on coming out. We went ahead and scheduled it and waited till Friday. Friday morning, we went to the hospital and about an hour and a half later we had a beautiful bouncing baby boy. He was 8lbs 7 oz and 21 in long.

Cache is so lucky to have two big brothers love him instantly so much!

Let's get ready to RUMMMMMBBBLLLE!


We have officially started football. Last Saturday was the Jamboree on the Blue and Orange Tuff. Boy did the kids love that!! Caleb got to start and played the whole game. He was so proud! I guess I have no choice, I am going to have to figure this game out!
As for Sawyer, he has started practice, and wished he got to practice five nights a week like Caleb.

UPDATE

Here's the deal.... NO BABY! I am technically due Thursday (the 28th). I am having a few contractions but nothing is happening. At this point, it is looking like I will be OVERDUE!
Damn it!!!!

Why???




Why do I keep sending money on nice toys for the kids, when a large cardboard box will do???? Seriously...We bought some things that came in these huge boxes and right away the boys went to work on there "forts". I am at the point where I would like to throw them out but I think the kids would have a cow!!!!

And this cash register........



Sawyer and I were at Albertson the other day. We walked down the "little toy isle" and Sawyer spotted the most awesome cash register he had ever laid eyes on. He was begging me to get it for him! "Mom, it is only a $1.99, can I please get it" I was thinking what a rip off!!! This thing will be lost and broken by this afternoon! Well, he talked me into it and lets just say he takes better care of his "Cash Register" than any other toy he has, and he plays with it more.
