Halloween, a bit overdue!

Connor got to enjoy a special Halloween snack after his nap!

He had the candy bag in one hand, the MD bag in the other!

Our attempt at a good, festive picture!

He knows where to take a temp!

haha, we had to hold his hands down to get a picture

of him with the stethoscope!

hours of fun with this bag! Its a great gift for any kid!

Going for a ride!

Wish away the Winter

I love Spring. I love Summer. I love Fall. I love my birthday and Christmas. I love Connor's birthday. I do not love winter. So, i'm going to reflect on the summery/fall-like weather and wish for 75 degree days!

Thank Chris Gunter for great pictures. I like you.

National Blog Posting Month

Fun Fact (or maybe not so fun): My child has a magnet in him that attracts him to Sharpie's ... this could turn out badly one day!

give(and receive)away

My friend over at Little Boat had this give(and receive)away on her site a few months back and i think its a great idea!

Here are the rules:

I am entering into the following contract with the first 5 people who comment on this post and then commit to do the same on their blog. Just read below and if you feel up to the task copy the following into your blog and leave me a comment. I am willing to post packages overseas (I am in the United States).

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make. Whatcha get is whatcha get.
2. What I create will be just for you, with love.
3. It’ll be done this year (2009)....maybe early 2010...
4. I will not give you any clue what it’s going to be. It may be weird or beautiful. Or it may be monstrous and annoying. (unlikely!) Who knows? Not you, that’s for sure!
5. I reserve the right to do something strange.
6. In return, all you need to do is post this text on your blog and make 5 things for the first 5 to respond to your blog post.
7. Send your mailing address - after I contact you.

Welcome to everyone. I will however, make an effort to do something that you like based on what I see on your blog.

Come on, don't be shy. Even if you don't think you're the creative type, you might end up surprising yourself - and making 5 other people very happy too!

So there you go, be the first 5 to leave a comment and be a part of it! Please leave your email address as well so I can contact you :)

Brace yourself, This is going to be a long one!

This summer my family went on a family vacation. This isn't something we get to do often, so we took the opportunity to take Connor to the beach! He had a blast and we learned a lot of new things about him!

He really likes animals...especially river otters!

My favorite!

He enjoys household chores like sweeping!

He is just cute!

He's not really good at balancing a broom.

He loves his Uncle.

He looks like a little stud in a swimming trucks

He hates sand (can you blame him?)

He wakes up REALLY EARLY at the beach...

and i mean 5:13 in the morning!!!

He is very curious

He is going to be my next Top Chef

This was just perfect. He really did find this fun all week!

He breaks the rules

He loves chocolate cookies

He concentrates heavily on Choo Choo Soul

He would rather sit on the side of the pool then be in the water

He has sweet hands.

He loves Jackson.

And thinks its funny his friend was in PCB the same week!

He thinks corn on the cob is juicy and good....yuuuum!

irresistibly adorable

I will say this at the end of every semester, HALLELUJAH!!!  we've been so busy with appointments, pictures, school, work, etc. that its hard to fit in taking pictures.  Connor is 15 months old - and hilarious!  He has always had a personality, but its really starting to come out.  I wish i could capture every little face!  Here are just a few!

Connor enjoys kissing the fake cate - probably b/c the real cat is terrified of him!!

Connor loves (and hates) having his teeth brushed.  Whatever mood he is in, he likes sitting on the potty! Maybe that will be good in the future!

I went into his room one night & this is how i found him; priceless!

He LOVES Tyler's hat.  

This is just a funny face. Double Chin!!!!

New words:

Moma, Mimi, Nunna, ball, glasses, cracker, eye, ear, banana, bye-bye!!
