Did someone say pictures???

I know, I know, it's been a really long time since I have posted, yet again! I do come back eventually though, I can always promise that!

Connor is continuing to amaze us on a daily basis with the things he knows and understands, not to mention the silly things he does! Just yesterday he was walking around with his jacket on his head giggling like crazy! He absolutely loves to play peek-a-boo, even if he thinks no one is watching(but I always am!!)

He has figured out how to open the safety locks on the cupboards, and how to pull out the chair from the kitchen table and climb up on it, and then on to the kitchen table! What a little monkey he is!

And, speaking of monkeys, he will go "ooo ooo aaa" if you ask him if he is being one! He also makes the sound of an elephant, and will occasionaly say "raaa" when you ask him what a lion says! He learned all three of these animals because he points to their pictures on his high chair seat!

I know there are many other new adorable things that Connor has learned, but they always seem to slip my mind when I finally decide to sit down and write about it!

I do, though, finally have an absolute TON of photos to share! Some are relatively new, and some are not so new.


These few are from mid-March when Connor was just learning to walk. He would chase a ball around all day if you let him! I really love this set of photos, and it's amazing how much older he looks now, only a couple months later!

And these next ones are from April, by this time he is pretty much running, and LOVES his walks outside!

This last one cracks me up! We have a little "book rack" type thing next to the couch, where we keep some of Connor's books and small toys. It's not very big at all, but, neither is Connor! He loved emptying it out and sitting in it to read books! What a cutie!

This next set of photos are from Connor's first camping trip, he had so much fun!


His first quad ride with Daddy! And yep, he is in a Snugli! 16 months old and plenty of room to spare!

Connor would wake up super early in the mornings, like 5:30 or 6:00am, so we would go for a dewey morning walk and sometimes he would fall back asleep for a while.

Here he is in the swing at the little playground out at 'the farm'. He loved it!

But, I think his favorite thing to do was go walking along all the trails. He and Leo had a blast!

We came back from camping a day early, so on the holiday Monday we spent some time in the backyard.


Connor always likes to help out, and was quite good at filling up the pool!

Then we let the sun warn up the water for a while, and played with some bubbles...

And did some yardwork.

Then into the pool!! Connor didn't like sitting down in the water, so he did a lot of squatting! Next time we will add some warm water from inside!

These last few pictures are of Connor and his pal James, hanging out at the skate park in St.Albert.

Well, that's all for now! Hopefully it won't be too long until next time!

Ah, dappled sunshine in the woods, a boy and a dog: it just doesn't get any better than that!
