We had another ultrasound today and things are progressing well with the newest addition. The tech even ventured a guess as to the sex...let's just say, Cash's hand-me-downs may not come in handy for this baby. We'll have the next ultrasound in mid-October, but for now we've been given an 80% likelihood girl. We'll see...it's not time to decorate or buy pink items just yet!
So sorry for the almost two month hiatus in posting. As you can see from the over fifty photos I just posted, it's been a busy summer. Cash and I went to New Mexico in July to visit my Grandparents, followed two weeks later to a family vacation to Steamboat Springs, Colorado where the whole Anderson clan gathered to celebrate my other Grandparents' 80th birthdays.
We were also blessed to have the Flattery's come visit in early August and we got to celebrate the upcoming addition of their daughter with a virtual baby shower. It was great to have so many California friends in the "same room" again!
On the fourteenth, Mick and I celebrated five years of marriage. Wow! Five years and two kids later. Yup, I said TWO kids. We have another one due in mid-March. Hold onto your hats folks. And we thought this summer was crazy!

Yesterday, we had the priviledge of dedicating Cash at our church. It made Mick's first Father's Day so special that we could honor our Heavenly Father in that way. We had picked out the above scripture for Cash, as he has proven to be such a spread-er of joy, not only for us, but for others as well.
Here are some pictures from our trip to California a few weeks ago. We had such a great time with our friends, and especially with the Blands. We can't wait to go back!
Cash is now nine months old! At his last doctor's appointment, he measured in at a hefty 21.2 pounds and nearly 29 inches long. For the first time, his percentiles have dropped, likely due to all his crawling about. That kid can move!
Good news! Cash has been sleeping a full 10 to 11 hours at night, which has been absolute HEAVEN for Mick and I. We can only hope that it will continue...
