Cute Connor

My mom and stepdad came for a visit from WA and we were folding up the air bed when Connor wanted to help deflate it . He was jumping on it and then we had him sit in it to go for a ride. He thought this was so much fun!! I wish someone would carry me around! hahaha
I just love his smile in this pic so I had to post it.

Yummy Spatula!


It's Saturday night...yep not much going on. Isn't that the pits! I really want to go do something but Brady isn't feeling well! His chest is bothering him and he doesn't know what he did. I think he may have broken a rib because he complains every time he moves. Hopefully what ever is hurting will heal soon because I'm getting tired of doing nothing. So here I am posting a blog for the heck of it. I do have a really cute picture of Connor I took. The other night I was making a dessert for relief society and I gave him the spatula. He hasn't ever licked one before and as soon as he did he wouldn't stop. It was really cute!

A Milestone for Me


Well, for a lot of people that know me. I am not one to hold babies, I have a really hard time with them. I'm not sure why but maybe one day I'll figure it out. Anyhow, My sister Rebecca and I went to see our friend Karlia who had a baby last week. I actually held her baby Alexia Ruth Lopez, she is really cute and really tiny. I couldn't get over how small and fragile she is. For those that know when I had Connor he was 10 Lbs and 1 oz. So.. I guess to me this was really weird holding a 7 Lb baby. Alright, you can stop laughing at me I know you probably had a 7 Lb baby and you thought they were big! Well, I just wanted to share the pictures because I look cute..alright Alexia does too.

As I sat there holding this baby, I was thinking how amazing it is to bring gifts from God into this world. The fragile little spirits who will look up to you in ever way. Congrats Karlia! You will be a great mom!

Connor's Birthday May 31st



Connor turned 2 years old!! I can't believe how much he has grown and how smart he is. Well, anyhow I made his birthday cake this year as Lightening McQueen. It turned out really well! I was truly nervous that I would still be working on this cake when his party started. Somehow, I managed to finish it 30 minutes before everyone arrived.

Unfortunately
I wasn't able to get any pictures of Connor smiling which is really odd because he always gives me cheesy grins. He liked his new swimsuit and held it up for me to see.

The red wagon I think was his favorite he helped put it together and then he went for a ride in it. Well, it turned out to be a good party and Connor was so spoiled!

Sad News

Sad news, after 30 years of working as a photographer and struggling to make ends meat my dad is moving out of his studio. He has finally decided that he just isn't making the money he needs to support himself or his new family. I'm sad for him but excited for the opportunity he will have of trying new things. He still will do on location only photos. For those of you out there that would like a really good photographer that has been doing pictures for over 30 years. Please consider my dad. He is a pro at this! Let me know and I'll give you his information to get a hold of him.

Connor Loves Dogs

Last Thursday I bought a whole bunch of flowers and decided to plant them. While I was busy planting away connor was playing with our dog sadie. My next door neighbor left her house and I waved at her. Not even 5 minutes had passed and connor runs to her door with sadie. Well, I assumed that he was just ringing the door bell and that was fine because I knew nobody was home for him to bother. A couple of minutes passed and I started calling out his name, I got no answer so I called for sadie...no answer. So I walk over to my neighbors door, which was shut and I knocked. All I got was dogs barking at me. So I tried the door and it opened, I yelled hello to make sure no one was there. I got greeted by the neighbor's 2 dogs and sadie. I tried to get passed them all to see if connor was in there and sure enough he is seating on their couch grining ear to ear. He thought he was so funny!! Connor will do anything to play with dogs! I finally got him and sadie outside without the other dogs following. It was quite the chore!
