Conner's 2nd Birthday Party

Seems like just yesterday....

We had Conner's birthday party yesterday. He had a Lightning McQueen party and really had a good time with his cousins. Before the party he and all his cousins got to take a tour of the fire station. Conner loves trucks, cars and especially fire trucks, but unfortunately their fire truck was on a call while we were there, but they did get to see the ambulance.

Lately Conner does not want to smile for pictures, I guess he just doesn't want to be bothered or something, ha. But he did have great time here and cried when he couldn't play in the truck anymore.

The kids inside the ambulance.

Watching the sirens and lights.

The Party:

We tried to make the table's look like roads.

My dad made this cake for Conner and he loved it!

My camera died before he opened presents, so I don't have any of those on here. But he sure was spoiled. I didn't even end up giving him all the presents from Tim and I because he was so overwhelmed with all the one's from cousins and grandparents. It was really funny to watch him when it was all over with. His cousins just swarmed him and opened all of his presents for him and for about 5 min after it was over he just stared off into space with a little smile on his face like he wasn't quite sure what just happened. He loved all of his gifts and even had to sleep with a few.

In his Lightning McQueen pj's and slippers the next morning.

Playing with Mack and his cars.

Happy Birthday Conner! We love you very much and are very grateful that you are apart of our family.

Guess What...

Its true! Conner is going to be a big brother! We are excited to announce that we will be having another BABY BOY, coming May 10, 2011. Conner is going to love being a big brother. He can't get enough of babies when their around. I am going to have to watch him like a hawk and make sure he isn't "helping" too much, ie: picking baby up by the head, feeding the baby food, etc. He'll be great at binky, blanky, and diaper runner!

In other news, Tim has been selected by the FAA to interview for a Montana Airport. We aren't sure which airport yet, but it could be Helena, Billings, or Great Falls. Keep your fingers crossed for us! He has to interview, pass a background check, pass a health physical, and once all those are passsed and completed he goes to Oklahoma City for 2 months of additional training, then off to Montana. We are so proud of Tim for all of his accomplishments, especially in this past year. He graduated top of his Air Traffic Control class and recieved 100% on his ATSAT (The test taken to become an Air Traffic Controller).

We are really excited for all of our big life changes coming up and know that this is the best thing for our family. Hope you all are having a great holiday season!

Halloween/Fall Fun

Seems like fall went by really quick this year, I guess it always seems that way. Here are some pictures of what we've been up too.

Tim's sister was getting rid of some of her baby/toddler things and gave us a potty training toilet for when Conner is ready. Well the other day he came in wearing it as a hat

Then he decided to put the plastic part on and get it stuck, and when he couldnt get it off he decided to take his pants off, couldnt hurt right? ha

Conner seems to take his pants off a lot lately, kinda weird, ha! The other day I found him in his pajama shirt, diaper and slippers.

I like how he is striking a pose in this picture!

So funny


We had so many leaves to rake this fall! Conner liked helping out.

One day Conner decided to ride his bike down the cement stairs in Tim's parents backyard, luckily he only came out with a fat lip and a scratch. Mother of the year award right here!

My work held their annual halloween party again this year, it is always so much fun. A few groups dressed up as polgymists. Here is one of the groups, so funny.

We took Conner trick or treating to about 3 houses before we all gave up! he dressed up as a skunk and he looked really cute!

Conner and Summer pictures

Here are some pictures from our summer since I was so bad at bloggging.



Conner helping make breakfast

Conner and I took a Mommy and Me swim class. Conner has tube's in his ears so he cant be submerged under water without ear plugs or a swim cap. We tried ear plugs for the first few days, but he would just rip them out, so we got him a little swim cap, it was so tight and he has such a chubby face that it would scrunch up, I would cry laughing every time I put it on. He looked like an Ailien!

One day I found him getting chocolate milk and juice out of the fridge by himself.

He was so proud.




We had a birthday party for my nephew Caden, he turned 3! We love you Caden.

How cute is the cake my dad made for him?


We also went to Stadium of Fire on the 4th of July. I LOVED it! Tim was sweet to go with me.

swimming and having a snowie :-)

Family Pictures

A friend of mine is going to UVU for photography and asked if she could take some pictures of us for her portfolio. They turned out really cute, thanks Leslee! Of course I couldn't help but put up a bunch of Conner.
