Shout out!

This shout out goes to Connor's favorite baby-sitter Cathy. Although Connor and I have adjusted quite nicely to staying home (we are still working on how to sleep in past 7:30!), he does miss Cathy and all his friends at her house. Every night before bed, we say good night to Cathy, to be sure not to forget about her before August rolls around. Unfortunately, that is only next month!

Thanks to Cathy for all of the love that she gives Connor!

Have a great 4th of July!!

Margot Elizabeth

Our friends Gwen and Trevor were in town last week visiting with their new little bundle of joy, Margot! She is so beautiful and sweet, I can't believe that Connor was that little just a year ago. People say that Margot looks just like her mom and we'd have to agree. It is just so sad that they live so far away, play dates are going to be quite difficult! We are just going to have to keep hoping that Trevor gets a job in Ohio!
Connor wasn't quite sure what to think of mama holding a baby, especially one wearing pink!!

Mmmm...

Today Connor and I went out for some grub with my parents. There is always dessert when papa is around!! Connor loved every bite of it!
I guess I can add whipped cream and chocolate ice cream to his 'favorites' list. Isn't summer wonderful??

Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there! In my opinion, this day was way more fun this year as Connor is able to participate in gift giving. He has no clue why, but he is good at handing daddy things. We sent Ken on a hunt following clues to find his gifts.
Finally, they found (and put together) a little something for Ken to enjoy!

In the afternoon, we decided to go out for a train ride. We met my parents and Noah there. The boys got to watch the train steam up and then they took a few rides! Dad's got to ride free!! It was a great day.

Have a great week! Connor and I are adjusting nicely to the stay-at-home life ; ) Watch out daddy!

Finally!

The longest school year ever has finally come to a end!! After two floods, sewage back-up in our new school, and too many snow days we are finally on summer break! Although it is always exciting to begin the summer, it is always sad for a teacher to see the year come to an end. I had a great group of kids this year and no two classes are ever alike! This obviously is their silly picture!

The saddest part of the day is saying good bye to a teaching friend. Amy (the one who looks like me!) has decided she and her one year old just can't make the one hour drive to school anymore :-( We have some great memories together and hope to stay in touch.

Amy, we will miss you and Miss Natalie!!

Separation Anxiety

Ken recently returned from a week long trip to California. It was a long week, but Connor and I survived! Since Ken's return, Connor has been nothing but glued to Ken's side. For three days, he cried every time he lost sight of his dad. Needless to say, we are glad he is home and Connor is planning on going on the next trip. Don't tell Connor that daddy has to take one more trip alone and then we all get to go. Unfortunately for the dogs, they will be staying in Ohio!

Please note: Although Connor is in his pj's for many pictures, he does wear "real clothes" during the day. He obviously is most photogenic after a fresh bath!
