Our Little Helper

With the weather starting to change and become warm, we are spending quite a bit of time outside.  


Greg was raking the front yard (getting rid of all the dead grass) and Connor was having a great time playing in it.


One of Connor's favorite things is helping to vacuum, here is our little helper.

This and That

It has been awhile since I last updated the blog so I thought it was about time!  Nothing huge has been going on with us, but I know everyone would want to see updated pictures of Connor and hear all the amazing things he is doing.

Connor is now 13 months old and he is keeping us busy!  He has been walking for 3 months now and he is getting quite quick.  He loves being chased, exploring the backyard, and just being a boy!  His most recent word was 'yea' after he found the toy he was searching for under our good friend, Shelby's hand.  Since Connor is half Collar it was only natural for him to be neat and tidy.  He loves helping me vacuum, cleaning up the table after he eats, and lucky for me putting away his toys!

We have an annual membership to the zoo, so we try to go as often as the weather allows us.  This was our most recent trip and it was a lot more fun because Connor was more interested in the animals and now that he is walking it is much more fun for him!

Monkey Biziness is a local, indoor playground that we enjoy visiting often.  Greg finally was able to go with us and he had just as much fun as Connor on the 17 foot inflatable slide!

Connor loves his books and luckily he has a lot!  We have two huge baskets full of them under our end table so he can easily 'read' to himself or of course let us read to him!

Since Connor is now 1 he can be in a big boy carseat.  While Greg was figuring out all the ins and outs of the new carseat Connor found the box much more fun!

The boys are so good with Connor and he loves them so much.  He now plays fetch with them, pets them, and loves having them chase him around the house.  



Recently we bought bikes for Greg and I along with a carrier for Connor.  It has been a great workout for me as I'm towing him behind my bike.  We have had amazing weather lately so going for a nice bike ride with a stop at the park has happened several days this past week!
