Random Pics

Since I haven't updated the blog since Connor's birthday, and Halloween is still a week away, I figured I'd "borrow" some pics that my dad took during Connor's birthday weekend and post them. We did have a nice time with Grammy and Grampy, so it's only fitting we post some of those pictures.

Grammy is addicted to Word Pops on Mommy's Phone and Connor LOVES it, too!


Daddy went fishing... and he caught a 23-pound CONNOR!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

On October 4th, our little guy turned 2 whole years old. The time is just flying, and I still can't believe he's two. He's such a fun little guy, and we enjoy every minute with him (ok, maybe not the minutes when he's screaming...but you get the idea).

We had Connor's party on the 3rd, and we prayed and prayed for nice weather, but someone up there was playing a nice joke on us, because it rained all day. So, into our little house we crammed 15 adults, 2 sets of twins, a 4-month-old, 3 2-year-olds, and a 6-year-old. It was cramped, but we still had a nice time. Connor had a grand ole time coloring and watching his show. He was really disinterested in opening presents, but he definintely loved them after the fact. Coloring books were among his favorites! He also got a nice new "big boy" table from Mimi and Papa, which he loves. He can sit in the chairs all by himself, and it's the perfect place to color.

He also got a set of tents and tunnels from Grammy and Grampy. He had loads of fun with these, especially when Grammy got in the tunnel herself. He thinks it's pretty funny when we put the tunnel over his head as he's standing up. Hopefully this will provide hours of entertainment. Keep your fingers crossed!

We'd like to thank everyone who came to Connor's party. Everyone was so generous with their gifts for Connor - he really does love them! Thank-you!

I love this picture. Notice the massive amount of babies behind Connor!

The twins finally meet!


Connor was actually screaming because we were singing.


Notice the "2" on his shirt. Thanks to Megan for the tip!


A birthday party can really wear a guy out!
