Birthday at Daycare

On Friday, I stopped by in the afternoon to celebrate Connor's birthday with his class.
His teacher found a baby picture of him that she said was, "So Connor" and put it on his birthday sign. 

I thought it would be fun for him to bring kazoos for his friends in his class since he liked playing with the one he had at home.

Luckily, they weren't nearly as loud as I thought they would be and the kids loved them!


"Baby Sister" was also a big hit with the kids!  She comes in once or twice a week with me and they all love to see her!

Connor-isms

Connor: What's that?
Me: a TV [old 70s tv]
Connor: It looks like a robot.

Connor: What's that?
Me: a turkey [picture of a Thanksgiving turkey on a plate]
Connor: Why is it sleeping?

Tucking him into bed...
Connor: This is my home!

We were asking him if different people were boys or girls.  What is Grandma?  What is Grandpa? What is Caylee?
Daddy: What is Bristol?
Connor: A dog!

Me: Connor, do you know how to play Duck Duck Goose?
Connor got on his hands and knees: Crawl like a duck...fly in the sky!

Doctor: You don't drink a lot of juice, do you?
Connor: No! Mama drinks juice! [Mama juice = beer]

Heard on our drive home today...
Me: Connor, some people drive cars or trucks to work and school and some people take trains or a bus.
Connor: Some people take a shopping cart too.

I was carrying Caylee in the Moby wrap outside...
Connor: You need to put baby sister on the counter.
(He meant the table outside, so I could play with him)

After he went potty...
Connor: You need to clap clap, mama!
Louder!

Connor: I wanna go home!
Me: You ARE home.

In the shower with Dada...
Connor: I wanna get boogers out of my nose!

Petting my hair...
Connor: I like your hair!

Our Week

Caylee loves snuggling in the boppy for little naps throughout the day.  I love seeing the funny ways she falls asleep and it's nice that I was be right next to her in bed.


She also sometimes passes out right next to Daddy while he plays games.


Not sure how this can be comfortable for sleeping, but whatever works...

Just drying my mani!

I'm starting to get a little emotional about going back to work, so I'm trying to get some extra snuggling in.


On Monday, we went to watch Dada play basketball.  This time, Connor got really into the game and it was adorable to watch! I was feeding Caylee on the side, but Connor sat on the bleachers cheering for Dada and his team!

On Wednesday, Caylee and I went to a baby massage class at the library.  They actually use canola oil for babies since it's safe and good for their skin.  We learned some ways to massage to help with gas and I might try them on Connor!

Little Miss Cupcake!

Since we haven't had a size comparison photo in awhile...

Connor got an adorable Thomas birthday card in the mail from Aunt Julie and Uncle Sam and he danced around the kitchen when he saw it!  He's been very excited lately when the mailman brings him things!

This photo cracks me up.
