The Birthday Party

Connor's Birthday

Here are pictures from Connor's actual birthday (AKA Thanksgiving!)

And Another, and another . . .

We have not one more but TWO more teeth!!! We were on our way back from visiting Grandma and Grandpa and I was sitting in the back seat with Connor and I look and there is another tooth as bright as day on the bottom next to his right tooth! WOO HOO!! No wonder he slept so fitfully on Saturday. That explains a lot. So he is getting THREE teeth in right now. Poor guy. And I can only imagine the other side is going to be soon because they all happen together.

He did really good this weekend and had a lot of fun with Grandma and Grandpa. He even got to visit Grandma's work and go to the Christmas party where he was the hit of the party. =) On Saturday it SNOWED! So we went outside and Connor got to walk and play with the snow. Ok, it wasn't much just a light dusting but it was snowing. =) Once I download the pictures I'll share them. I also got pictures from Grandma for Connor's party so once I get a slideshow going I'll share that since I still haven't had a chance to do anything with my pictures!

One year check up

Connor had his one year check up on Friday. He weighs in at a whopping 21 lbs! YIKES! (small fry) and 31" long. I can't believe he is almost 3 feet tall! I know his growth will start to slow down now but the boy can sure eat! And he loves his fruits and veggies. =) That's my boy!!! Other than that, nothing going on. He is switching to whole milk like a champ and seems to like it. He is more interested in eating now than drinking so he is evolving. Makes it harder on us because we can't just give him a bottle when he's hungry. We need to have easy snacks available that he can eat. He is also a walking machine. All he wants to do is walk walk walk. Even if he falls down, he doesn't stay down and crawl, he'll get back up and continue walking. =)

This past weekend we went and saw Harji Uncle's and Bigi's new house. They finally moved in and getting settled in. I'm sure Connor will be spending lots of time there with them and playing with Tiger (the dog). Right now Tiger keeps knocking Connor over trying to sniff him and lick him. I'm sure it will be no time when he's running away from Connor while Connor's trying to pull on his ear, tail or whatever. =)

This coming weekend we are going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. We just say them last month for Connor's birthday/Thanksgiving but it's nice to be able to see them again. Connor changes so much all the time not seeing him for a couple months is a real shocker! I'm hoping to see them more next year than we did this year!

Well, that's all for now. When I get a free moment (HA!) I'd love to share some video and pictures from Connor's birthday. Maybe one of these days!

Another tooth.

No wonder. That explains a lot this past week. ;) I saw another tooth on Saturday. It is barely breaking through. It's next to his upper right tooth. I didn't see one on the other side (although I'm sure it will come soon). So my son might be three toothed! Ha-ha. Just kidding. That was Surbjit's fear. LOL! I know they will both come in. But he's been cranky so this past week so that explains a lot!

We have our one year check up on Friday. I am NOT looking forward to that. Shots. And he is older now and remembers. Poor guy. Wish me luck!!!

Funny story at Daycare

Tina (daycare provider) is starting to transition Connor to table food (we have him basically transitioned at home). Anyway, I guess yesterday she feed him his jarred food and gave him some noodles that all the kids eat. He ate all his and started taking some more from the other kids! :~p I guess he likes them! Haha!!

I was playing with him last night with his new toy from Tina. I can tell his mind is starting to put things together. She got him a link toy. It's basically plastic toy bugs (butterflies, ladybugs, grasshoppers, etc) that link together. I was showing him how to put them together and take them apart. I gave him two hooked together and he tried to get them apart. It's a little hard for him right now but he sees what to do and is getting the hang of it. He can drop the balls in the Drop and Roar Dinosaur with virtually no problem. He messes up here and there but otherwise he does really great. And anything with wheels, he loves! He turns it over and starts turning the wheels! He is just too much fun!!

Thursday, November 23, 2006

He is ONE!

Today you were born a year ago. I still can't believe it's been a whole year. Where did the time go. You are no longer my baby. You are very hard headed and have to have your way. We love you though. =) I hope your birthday is the best!

We have STEPS!!!

That's right! Connor has officially taken his first steps this past Saturday. It's funny too because I saw our friend Melissa on Friday and she was asking if Connor was walking yet and I said no. She was like I figured he'd be walking by his first b-day. That could still happen. =)

First Surbjit saw him go from the couch to his toy. He took about 2 steps and then could grab onto his toy. Later on, I was in the living room with him. He was standing at his favorite toy reaching out to me so I held out my hand and told him to come to me. He started walking, took three steps and then I grabbed his hand as he was about to go down. =) He has since taken a few step here and there. He walks next to me pretty good only holding onto one hand so we'll see. Maybe he'll be walking all over the place on his 1st b-day. :~p

Halloween Camping Trip This Weekend

Not too much going on here. We are going camping this weekend to Vail Lake with 7 other families. All the kids get to decorate pumpkins and go trick or treating from motorhome to trailer. Should be lots of fun! I will definitely take lots of pictures and will share next week. I have some other pictures on the camera I need to download and will post those too.

We are in the process of getting our backyard landscaped. They are killing the grass this week and will hopefully start removing the plants and grass next week. It's should be done by Connor's b-day party (ok, it better be done!). So let's hope for no hiccups!!

Connor is doing good. He is crawling all over the place and cruising along the furniture. He HATES to lay down and have his diaper changed but he doesn't get a choice in that. LOL! He "talks" a lot now but no words per se. I'm sure he is saying something that he understands we just don't. He does say mama and dada but that's about it. He has no interest in walking but maybe soon. He can stand on his own for a good while with no help. He does gives kisses (big open mouthed kisses =) ) and can give you 5. We are trying to teach him how to blow kisses but no luck yet. I still can't believe he is going to be one in a little over a month. This year has flown by!!!

Really Bad

I know I've been really bad about updating this this month. We have just been so busy!! Life is very hectic!!! FYI - If anyone has a myspace I have one too. Just add me as a friend and we can keep in touch. I try to update it with pictures and what not. It's http://www.myspace.com/pinguinlvr

Let's see what is new. Not much. We had to take Connor to the doctor's on Friday. Our daycare called up and said he wasn't acting right and crying. Turns out he had an ear infection. He seems to be doing better now. We got him antibiotics and his nose seems to be cleared of his cold that he had starting last week. Let's hope he stays healthy for a little while!! At the doc they weighed him. 19 1/2 lbs. He's a small one, LOL!

Halloween is just around the corner. I did order Connor a costume. Surprise surprise it's a penguin. =) BUT I think it's too big. I'll to figure it out sometime this week and see if I need to get to the store and buy him something else. We are going camping the second week in October to Vail Lake. They do a bunch of activities for Halloween so that should be fun. There are 8 families going! Lots of kids. =)

Well, until next time!!

Another Tooth!!!

So we are getting in a new tooth. His upper right side. I saw the whites of it last night. No wonder he's been a little cranky lately. For those that are keeping track, that means he has 3 teeth now! Other than that, not much going on! Just doing the same 'ol same 'ol!!!

Monday, August 07, 2006

Picture Time

We went to Picture People and got pictures taken of Connor. They turned out quite well!

We have another tooth!!

It must have broke through last night while he was sleeping. Poor guy. I hope this means he's in a better mood now!!

Camping trip that almost wasn't

Well this is what happens when you book camping trips at the last minute and to places you have never seen before! LOL! Which reminds me, darn it all, I never got pictures of the campground. Oh well. So we were supposed to go to Chino camping. Our friends got there Thursday evening and I guess this place just is not all that! It's WAY too close to the dairy and there were a TON of horse flies everywhere. So they decide that isn't the place to camp. So they came home and we decided to try and call some other places and see if they had anything available. We called up Glen Ivy RV park in Corona and they had space available. Yeah! So we got there, they give us our sites, we drive over to the sites and ours has yellow tape around it. UGH! So we went back and got new sites. Finally in the end, we parked and set up camp and went over to the pool (one of the reasons we went there). It felt so good!! Connor really liked it to. Although he got in our friends pool on 4th of July this was the first time he was actually IN the pool with us. He had a blast! Kicking, splashing. I have to download the pictures.

He was cranky that afternoon while we were trying to set up but I believe the reason why is because his second tooth is starting to come in!! We could see the second one popping up next to the first one really good on Sunday. :) Anyway, on Saturday we woke up, had breakfast, played outside for a little bit then went down to the pool. I figured being as hot as it was, the pool would be packed. It wasn't bad at all! We got in, played around a bunch. Connor started getting really tired so we went back to the motorhome. I put him in his crib and he was out! Tuckered out from all the swimming. He did really good on Saturday. He was a grouch on Sunday when we were trying to pack things up and get everything together. He just wanted to be held and played with. I think his tooth is also bothering him. But we made it! We had a good time and we would go back to that campground again if we just wanted to get away some weekend.

This past weekend

Connor is doing much better. Had lots of snot this weekend but he is feeling so much better! We went out to dinner on Saturday for our friend's b-day. He did so good!! I was so proud!! The dinner was in Ontario at 6pm. Connor is usually in bed by 7pm. He got 2 - 2 hour naps in plus he slept for 45 mins on our way there. I think that is why he did so well. He started getting fussy at the end but who wouldn't sitting there for 1 1/2 hours. I was really happy. And that was the first time since he's been born that I've been able to enjoy myself out at dinner. Of course yesterday he was a fuss bucket but that was because he didn't nap really good because my friend was over with her 2 1/2 year old so I can't complain. At least I know why!!

Crabby, crabby

He's taken to being crabby at night. I'm not sure if it's because he's teething (I sure hope so because that means it'll go away) or if he's just so tired. Last night when he came home he was really tired and fell asleep for daddy for about an hour. He woke up, we fed him, he played for about an hour, at again and went to bed. Of course he woke up at 5am this morning all happy as could be playing in the living room with daddy while mommy finished getting ready for work. Oh well. Hopefully it's just the teething because that will go away once he finishes getting his teeth in. Cross your fingers.

Another day . . .

Poor Connor. I feel so bad for him. He's got a runny nose and is kinda congested. He's not as bad as he has been in the past but he's not sleeping really good at night either. Moving all around. I can tell when he wakes up and he's still tired. He'll cry out, sit up in his crib and then fall over. Usually onto his face. It's kinda funny right now as I'm thinking about it but I gasp every time I see him do it. He bangs his head into the crib and it doesn't phase him. What can I do? At least he goes back to sleep pretty easily since he is so tired. He's not snoring so it appears he can breath halfway decently when he falls asleep. I just can't figure out if he's cold or hot. I think he's been hot. I know I've been hot. So we are going to try and put the A/C down to 72 tonight and see how that works.

Monday, July 10, 2006

A Cold again . . .

You would think in the summer time you wouldn't get a cold. At least I think it's a cold. He has snot so I'm thinking it's not just congestion from teething as one of the old wives tales says. He kept waking up last night too. Probably every two hours. He didn't really cry out just started kicking the crib, sitting up, then laying down again, babbling a little. I'm thinking he is going to sleep well at daycare today.

Grandma's Visit

Yup! Here are some pictures from when Grandma was here!!





Wednesday, July 05, 2006

Connor's First 4th of July!

We had a pretty good time last night. We went over to our friend's house about 3 blocks away. They have a pool so Connor got in for the first time! He liked it. We didn't go too far in since I did not have bathing suit. I didn't think we'd probably go in so I didn't bring anything. Considering we walked there it was less stuff to carry too.

He never had his afternoon nap because we had to leave and visit friends on Carnation and then headed over to our friend's house on Calendula that had the BBQ at that we went to. So Connor was VERY tired. He did fall asleep in my arms after his last bottle but when I went to put him down to lay in his stroller, he woke up and would not go back to sleep. So in the end, he got to see fireworks. He really liked them. Kept looking everywhere since we were doing some, the people to the left AND right were doing some also! And then of course people all over the neighborhood had the illegal fireworks they were shooting off into the air. It was pure madness (but a controlled madness!). We got home around 9:30pm and he went straight to bed. No fuss. It was a good time.

Thursday, June 29, 2006

Too cute!

Ok on Monday, I would ask Connor to give me a kiss and go in and kiss him/ rub noses since his idea of a kiss is to open his mouth wide. :) I did that quite a few times. Fast forward to Tuesday. Bigi came over and was rubbing noses with him too. After a couple of times of us intiating it, he's keep moving forward for us to rub noses with him. Now onto Wednesday night. I just got done feeding him and he was not in the mood to go to bed so I sat there holding him. He keeps coming closer and closer to my face. I'm like what the heck is he doing? He's trying to bump my nose with is and smiling each time he does it! How cute is that?!?

Wednesday, June 28, 2006

Tooth!!!!

We have a tooth!!!! I noticed it yesterday night. It's just starting to break through. Yeah!! It's the bottom right when you are looking at him and the it looks like the left one is not far behind. Yeah!! He's doing really good eating wise. He's in Stage 2 foods now. He basically likes everything except bananas which I don't blame him. The banana baby food was disgusting! I might mash up some ripe bananas and give that to him sometime and see if he likes that better. He likes all his veggies and his is now starting to try meats. Fun fun! I've also started giving him the fruit puffs. He seems to like them. He's slowly getting the hang of things. He is also drinking from a sippy cup. He does pretty well but he has a hard time tipping it all the way back when there isn't much in it. I saw an add for a sippy cup that is supposed to help eliminate that so I'm going to see if I can find it.

He had his 7 month appt two weeks ago. He was 16lbs 4ozs and 27.5 inches long. He is in the 29%tile for weight and 75%tile for height. I have a tall skinny baby. :) Well that's about it for now.

Bad Mommy

I am a bad bad mommy for not keeping up with this!! It was kinda hard since I didn;t have any pictures to share, but guess what? Now I do. :) We bought a new camera! Yeah!! So here are some pictures. Connor is crawling like a champ now and standing up. He just wants to move all over the place! He's growing up way too fast.


The only bad thing about our camera, it has such a high resolution, our pictures are HUGE in size (3 MB each!). I'm uploading the pictures from our camping trip right now. It's going to take 45 mins. Ok, we did take a lot of pictures. I think like almost 100! Don't get use to it though because it's a new camera we wanted to play with it. Haha! I LOVE this camera. Anyway, once I get them all uploaded, I'll send a link to everyone so you can see all the pictures. If you don't get an e-mail from me by Monday, e-mail me because I probably forgot to send it to you!

Connor's 6 month appt is June 16th. A little late I know. Not my fault! The stupid drs office resecheduled it for Monday the 5th without calling and telling me. I have to work so I moved it to my next day off. It was a good thing I called the day before and confirmed otherwise I would have shown up to the drs office with him for his appt that wasn't then. Oh well. I'm just curious to see how much he weighs and how tall he is. I guess I just have to wait two more weeks. Plus we are supposed to go camping that weekend and I was really trying not to have his shots right before we went camping. What's a girl to do?!

Last Riding Trip of the Season

Well Connor had a fabulous time camping this last weekend. So much so, we tired him out. :) We got there on Thursday night, Connor slept the whole way and then went right to bed when we got him out of his car seat and put him in his travel crib. On Friday he woke up and ate and then went back to sleep so Mom and Dad could get some sleep in too. He woke up and played. Did really good all day Friday. He even played in his exersaucer outside the motorhome Friday evening for about an hour. Everybody was just awed that he would play like that for so long (us included!). On Saturday Connor and mommy and took a nice 3 hour nap in the morning and also hung out outside playing in his pack n play. Although, I think our next camping trip, the pack n play is not going to be sufficient. He wants to "crawl" (his version, he's not quite there yet but he moves!) and the pack n play is a little too confining for his liking. After all that play he went to bed at 7:30pm and didn't make a peep until 6am! Sunday we traveled home and Connor played for the first hour while in the motorhome and then went to sleep and slept all the way until we got home. Everyone had a wonderful time and the weather was beautiful. A little on the warm side but that's why we have a motorhome with a/c!! Not many pictures from the trip since we would have to pull out the camcorder when we want to take a picture but hopefully we'll get a new camera soon. We know which one we want but they are just starting to sell it this week or next so we'll have to wait until the price comes down a little! Until next time!!!

Camera Caput

UGH!!! Our camera went to the camera heaven in the sky. UGH!! Which means, no pictures for awhile. I think we know what camera we want, we just have to order it or find it somewhere. What a pain. I wasn't really expecting to need a new camera soon. Ours worked just fine. It would be nice to get a new one and now we don't have a choice. So I can't take Connor's picture next to Fieval for his 5 month shot. Oh well. What can I do right?

Thursday, April 13, 2006

Easter

Easter is this Sunday and we will be at my parents house. I went to Target last night and bought stuff for Connor's Easter basket. It's not as if he is going to remember but it makes me feel better. :) I got him two DVD's, two toys, a teether book and a stuffed squeaky rabbit that I bought at BabyGap when we were there this past weekend. The basket I bought at Target I can put in his closet when we are done with it and use it to store things in. So I'm practical too. :)

In other news, I was looking at one of my e-mails I get from one of the parenting sites and they listed recent recalls. One of which were toy pliers. My friend Monica had given us one when Connor was born so I decided to look at it. Sure enough. It's those pliers. I guess one of the knobs can fall off and pose a choking hazard. Great. At least I hadn't opened it yet. I was going to do it this weekend too! Now I just have to find time to return it to Radio Shack. They better not give me no grief!!

Wednesday, April 12, 2006

Feeding Solids

Well, I finally started Connor on some rice cereal. He isn't digging it to much but he doesn't hate it either. It's just kind of funny. He opens his mouth for the spoon and then it all basically falls back out! But we are making progress. I am going to start on Green Beans next weekend. I don't want to start this weekend because we'll be at my parents and if he has an allergic reaction and we need to see the doc, I'd rather be close to home. So next weekend, he gets the good stuff. :) We'll see how he likes it!

Wednesday, April 05, 2006

Growth Spurt?

I don't know if Connor is going through a growth spurt or what? After my weekend away from the boys in Vegas (which I am still sleep deprived from), and in which Connor was a CHAMPION sleeper for Daddy, he has started waking up in the middle of the night. Not waking up, we put his binkie back in his mouth, he goes back to sleep. No he wakes up and keeps crying because he is hungry. On Monday he had 6 - 6 oz bottles during the day and then woke up at 2:30am and had another 4 oz bottle. Yesterday, he had 4 - 6oz bottles, 1 - 8 oz bottle and then woke up at midnight and had another 8 oz bottle! UGH! I am tired. Then he decided to wake up early this morning at 5 am instead of me waking him up at 5:30am. Oh well. I got to spend more time with him. :)

Pictures

Here are some much anticipated pictures!!










































See how Big Connor has gotten?!?

Sorry no time to post right now. It's almost 10pm and I need to get to bed!!

Picture from Wal-Mart

I forgot to upload this. We went to Wal-Mart last weekend and Connor fell asleep. He was so cute we had a take a picture! Courtesy of my camera phone (who'd of thought it would actually get used when we first got it!):

It's been too long!

Since I've posted an update! Bad Mommy! Nothing much to report. Connor loves his exersaucer - yes I will get pictures this weekend uploaded I promise!!! We are going camping this weekend so we should have some pictures from that too. I am hoping to take a ton of pictures. I so do not take enough. I can't believe Connor is going to be 4 months old tomorrow!! WoW!!!

We've taken to feeding Connor at 8pm now. So depending on how fast he eats his bottle (last night it took him 45 mins! because he was basically sleeping the whole time!) he is in bed between 8:30 and 9. It's nice for Mommy and Daddy because now I can get some laundry and some other stuff done. Last night I heard him around 3 am doing his usual cry out and then usually he goes right back to sleep. For about 5 minutes he kept whining off and on. Well the last time that happened his arm was sticking out of the crib (ha! he can't do that now with the bumpers on!) so I decided to go check on him. He had turned 180 degrees(his head was where his feet were!) and he was on his stomach, hence the whining. I couldn't believe it! So I turned him over and flipped him around and put his binkie back in his mouth and he went back to sleep. I just couldn't believe it! He is definitely a mover. Then when I woke him up at 5:30 he was ready to get up! He played with me a little before I left unlike most days where he is just laying on me still asleep. So I think the earlier bedtime is exactly what he needs!!

Monday, March 13, 2006

Nothing New

Not too much going on in the Connor arena. I have pictures on the digital camera that I need to download. Maybe I'll get a chance to do that tonight. We will see. Connor is feeling better. I think he is finally getting over his cold. He's had a lot of mucous coming out yesterday which I'm going to think is a good sign that his body is ridding itself of that. Other than that, nothing new going on. We go him an exersaucer and he just absolutely LOVES it! It's so much fun to watch him playing. He just concentrates on trying to touch things and grab things and it's so cute. :) We have a birthday party to go to in Apple Valley on Saturday. A one year old b-day party. Should be fun. I just hope its a lot warmer next weekend than it was last weekend!!!

He Rolled Over!!

Woo Hoo! My son is a genius! Ok Surbjit had said for the past two days that Connor has rolled over for him. The first time he did it, Surbjit thought well maybe it was a fluke so he turned him back over onto his back and sure enough he rolled over again onto his stomach. So last night Surbjit showed me. He put Connor on his back and Connor was playing and turned on his side and the turned on his stomach, then yanked his arm out from under him and was on his stomach! Yippee!!

On other news - my poor guy. Not only does he have a cold but now he has an ear infection. I hope he gets better soon. He is a real trooper and doesn't mind the medicine that we are giving him thank god! I think this weekend will be a relaxing indoors type of weekend!

New Pictures

Here are some new pictures of Connor:

We finally got a picture of him smiling!

Here he is playing with Mr. Moo. He is getting really good neck control now!

My baby is getting so big!!! This is his monthly picture next to Fievel. Pretty soon he is going to be bigger than Fievel!!!

He's Better

He is doing much better. Not that he really got that bad. I am really thankful. I think we caught it early enough that he never really got bad. He is such a cutie I hate to see him suffer at all. He's been sleeping a lot the last couple of days. Either he is still trying to fight off his cold (which is reasonable) and/or he is going through a growth spurt. He's been sleeping great at night so far (knock on wood). We just have to have him swaddled. If we don't do it good enough he gets his hands in his face and wakes himself up. I think we'll just keep swaddling him until he gets good hand control and starts sleeping without moving his hands all over the place.

I have a couple of pictures on my camera I want to share I just need time to get on the computer and do it. It's really hard during the week because I get home, cook dinner, eat, clean up and then spend a couple hours with Connor, then go to bed. We are going to slowly start having him go to bed earlier and earlier. This week we are feeding him at 9:30pm. Next week I'm going to start feeding him at 9pm. Probably do that for a couple weeks, then move it forward to 8:30 and finally to 8pm. That will give Surbjit and I some time at night to ourselves.

I think we are going to go to Babies R Us this weekend and get the high chair and exersaucer that I want for him. I think he'll have fun playing in those and I can put him in the high chair in the kitchen while I'm cooking so I can still watch him and talk to him while I'm cooking.

Well, that's an update in a nutshell. I know I need to e-mail some people back. There is just not enough hours in the day anymore!!

Wednesday, February 22, 2006

My baby has a cold :(

Well Connor has his first cold. The poor thing. He's being a champ though. He slept all last night. I think he's like momma and gets really tired when he's sick. We ended up putting him back in our bed to sleep since he isn't feeling good and we raised his little bed so he's sitting up when he's sleeping to relieve the stuffiness. We've given him a decongestant and some eye drops so his eyes don't get infected and have been using saline drops to help his nose. So far he isn't too bad. Hopefully he'll get over it quickly.

Of course I am sick too and so is Surbjit (at least he thinks. His throat is bothering him but it's been like that for awhile now). I just want to go home and sleep. I know what we are going to be doing this weekend!

BTW, at his appt yesterday he weighed in at a healthy 12 lbs 11 ozs!! And is 2 feet 1 inches long!!! (Sounds longer that way than saying he is 25"!). He is in the high percentile for height and in the lower percentile for weight. Looks like we are going to have a tall skinny kid. :)

Out of Mom & Dad's room

Well, Connor is now officially in his own crib. It's kinda nice to have the room to ourselves but I miss him. Even though he is just in the next room. :) It's not like I can just wake up and look over to see how he is doing.

Surbjit is taking Connor to the doctor this afternoon. He is sounding congested and has a runny nose and his eyes are red and watering so we think he's coming down with a cold. When I called the nurse, she said to bring him in since he's so young to make sure his ears and everything are fine too. The appt is at 4 pm. At least now I'll know for sure how much he is weighing now since everyone keeps asking me.

More pictures of Connor

Since it's been so long since i've had a chance to post pictures I think I'm just inundating you now! I'm sure no one minds though. :)







Playing on his mat.














I don't need help holding MY bottle! :)











I smile for Mommy and Daddy but once that camera comes out I get shy!!

Connor, Dylan and Katrina

Last weekend Dylan and Katrina came over to play with Connor so we took some pictures. Of course Grandma/Mom and Grandpa/Dad came over too.















Dylan, Katrina, and Connor

I think once they get older they'll be able to do more than just lay there. :)

Pictures from Connor's camping trip

Here are some pictures of Connor from the camping trip. He had a great time and the weather was beautiful!!!!

I really need to take more pictures of him while we are camping. We were busy on Saturday because Romy, Jeff, Cynthia and Katrina came out to visit. Jeff and Cynthia went riding while Romy, Katrina, Connor and I hung out. It was fun. Not sure when our next camping trip will be. We will see.
