The past few days there are a few things that have come to mind that I just can not live without these days. And also a few that Ryken can't live without too. Well actually they are pretty much things that both of us can't live without. :)
I think I have spoiled both myself and Ryken when it comes to this first one. 
This is our little over sized rocker/recliner. I pretty much need this every day and every night in order to get my little guy to sleep. I don't have to have this one in particular any rocker will do. So pretty much I get stuck in some stinky situations when we are somewhere with out a rocker and he is fussy and tired. Basically every time I am at church, my in-laws and at some other peoples houses I break out in a heavy sweat and feel like I am losing control of myself, cause I NEED to have a rocker. I have spoiled him in this way because of the fact that he is so use to it now and I have no idea how to break him or myself of it. Which is another reason I should have added to my reason of thinking I am a bad mom is the fact that he loves to be rocked to sleep and also sang to sleep too. I really don't have a good singing voice but all that matters is that he likes it and it works for us. :) He LOVES lots of the church hymns and primary songs.
Another thing we of course can't live without is his bathes. He loves them and I love giving them to him. As soon as he gets in the water this is his reaction....
I just love the way his little feet look after his baths. His raisin looking foot is so cute. Don't you think? :)
I can't live without this cute little guy! One day I just put him in the sink while I was trying to get his bath ready and I thought it was just a cute picture and had to take it. :)
And we both can't live without his naps. I love when he actually takes a good one. Not a little cat nap that lasts 30 to 45 mins. And the other day he had a good one and he woke up with his this crazy bed head...
Ryken loves his daddy! And I love his daddy too. :) We CAN'T live without him.

How Sweet! I agree, I could NOT live without naptime! I think that until Britt is in kindergarten, he will be forced to nap everyday...I need the down-time too! We can't wait to see you guys this weekend!
I love his face in the last picture!
What a Sweet Family. Hope you are doing well. I got your message and I have plenty of time on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday afternoons. I would love to see you guys. Take Care.
Cute Cara! : ) I love the picture of Ryken and his daddy!
What a great post! And fun pictures :) Good luck with the rocking him to sleep thing; I don't have that problem but I do have kids who--for the most part--would only fall asleep if they were in their own crib at home! Just keep telling yourself that it won't last forever....
cara... you are such a good mommy! i love that he is chubby and believe me, i get the "your baby is so big" all the time too. enjoy it. bigger babies are cuter anyways. at least our boys are well fed! and i think you should not feel bad about rocking and singing to sleep. yes, someday he may need to grow out of it, but enjoy this while you can. you only have one baby once, and i dont think you can spend enough time loving and spoiling them when they are babies. i think it is sweet that he is comforted by your voice. i just started singing to boston and he loves it, even though im terrible! you are a good mom, i can tell. and he is soooo adorable!
So, we should totally go to the zoo sometime. I'm sure Ryken would like. Makenna went when she was his age and loved it! If he likes animals he would totally love the petting zoo!
Anyway, so are we still planning on getting together agian with Kaaryn? I think it would be fun!
