A Very Busy & Fun Weekend

Connor started his first day of t-ball at sports class on Saturday. 

It's amazing how much his throwing and catching has improved since the spring when he really started learning how to play.

He got a sticker at the end of class and gave it to Baby Caylee.  Awww!

After nap time, we went to an Autumn Fest where Connor got to roast his first marshmallow.  I think he was a little nervous being around a hot fire, but Daddy tried to show him how to do it. 

Miss Caylee wore her pumpkin hat for the occasion, but she slept most of the time.

Connor did awesome waiting in the lines like a big boy.

He shocked us by asking to go on the "bouncy" since he's been scared of them for about the past year.  He went all by himself!

Some selfies while we waited in line for the pumpkin sling shot game!

The dinosaur golf game caught his attention and he tried to do it right-handed.

We stopped at the petting zoo twice while we were at the fest.  The animals were so sweet and loved to be pet.

After I stepped on a big piece of glass walking back to the car (fun times!), we stopped at Steak & Shake for dinner.  I don't think Caylee was feeling very good and she wouldn't drink her bottle.

But Connor ate all of his dinner, so he got an M&M milkshake!

On Sunday morning, we all got to sleep in a little and then Connor went right downstairs for breakfast.  I found him coloring and playing with cars, so I suggested he try these new name sheets I made for him.  He's going to have to learn to write his name soon since the kids in the older preschool room at daycare do it every morning on their white board for the Question of the Day.

I took Caylee to the doctor while Connor and Daddy went to the Farmer's Market and playground.  We met up with them at the park to switch kids so I could take Connor to Eva's birthday party.  It's great that Connor is enjoying the "bouncy" again because that's where the party was!  He did awesome and went on all of them by himself!

He shocked me by eating pizza for lunch without me saying a word!  He even said he had to go potty after he ate!

We got back just in time for cake & ice cream.  Mama got his leftovers, so I was happy too :)

A really fun weekend and I loved spending so much quality time with the kids!

Our Week

Connor loves to help Papa with his walker

The sock monkey hat is back! Connor did awesome at his ENT checkup and his tubes are still in place for the fall/winter season.

Caylee's favorite hobby of chewing on her hand

We took a risk and decided to cut Connor's hair ourselves!  3 cuts and we would break even with the purchase of the trimmer, so it was worth a try.  It sounded a lot more scary than it actually was and it turned out really well!  Success!

Thank goodness for the ipad!

Sleepyhead.

How is she big enough to sit like this already? She loves sitting in here like a big girl! :)

Poor girl :(  She got a fever at daycare on Friday afternoon and this is how I found her when I came in.  She looked so miserable and you could tell in her face that she wasn't feeling well.

She looked cute, but she was just a mess.  The fever went down overnight, but she was just so sad :(

Kite Fest & Farmer's Market

It was FREEZING on Sunday morning, but we made a short stop at the Kite Fest and Farmer's Market.  Mama and Dada definitely did not dress warm enough, and neither did Caylee, but Connor was all bundled up and ready to play!

It was really windy, so only a few kites were able to practice in the morning before the fest started.

We walked around the Farmer's Market, but we had to go through it really quickly since it was so cold.  Connor spotted people blowing up a giant tiger bounce house and kept pointing it out.  He's usually scared of them, but he wanted to go over to see it.  The man working there said it wasn't open yet, but then he let Connor on early!  It was actually really nice because he got to go on alone and he could get comfortable by himself.

A few short minutes and he was done!  But I'm proud of him for doing it!
