Our Back Yard Fun!

Connor is so cute after he gets his bath, he just loves to play in the tub. He splashes the water every where and makes a big mess but he is so cute and has so much fun.

We are starting to finish the backyard. I do not know what we were thinking before we moved we said we wanted a house with a finished backyard and we really did not want a hill. But of course we bought a house with dirt for a backyard and a hill. Donovan and Jason our friend worked all weekend on the backyard. Thanks again Jay!!!!!!!! They got the first layer of rocks down and now they just need to do one more layer of rocks and some rock steps. Oh what a project, but hey I would love to have grass for Connor to go and play on.

In the afternoon Connor got to go outside and help dad move some rocks. He was only able to stay on the machine a few minutes he couldn't hold still of course and he wanted to play with all of the controls. It was so cute to watch him help Dad!!!!

BOATING!!!!!!

Connor has now decided that he loves pickles. He will just suck on a pickle and be totally content for a long time. We had to take this picture because half the time he just keeps it in his mouth and uses his hands for anything else he wants.

This is Donovan wake-boarding. The day was stormy at first but it turned out really nice!

This was Connor's first boat trip. He did really well. The boat put him right to sleep. He had to have his life jacket on at all times so I am surprised he fell asleep he could hardly move his arms or legs, but this is were he slept for over an hour.

We put Connor in the water thinking that he would love it since he loves the bath and also the sink but we were wrong. As soon as we put him in the water he started screaming but of course I had to get a picture. The water was defiantly cold so that may be why he wasn't so happy about his first dip into the lake. Next time we will have to let him get used to the water first.

Even though Connor wasn't didn't like to be in the water he did enjoy the boat and all that was going on around. It was really fun to bring him to the lake with us I was a little worried on how he would do especially after the rodeo experience, but I was pleasantly surprised and it was a great day on the lake. Hopefully our trip to Flaming Gorge in a couple of weeks will be as fun:)

I just love the sunglasses!!!!!!!!!!!

4th of July

The Morris family joined us for a BBQ and fireworks on the 4th. It was a lot of fun watching Jackson and Drexton play and watch the fireworks. Although I am not sure who had more fun the kids or Donovan and Jason lighting the fireworks!!!

This is how Connor spent his 4th, he fell asleep around 730 and missed all of the firework festivities, but oh well he will get to see them all next year. Connor was still tired from the night before when we went up to the rodeo is Kamas. I am not sure if it was all of the people or the noise but he really did not enjoy this adventure, again maybe next year when he is a little older:)

I had to take this picture he just looked so cute waiting for mom to be ready to get into the car.

Almost Crawling!!!!!!!!!

This was on Father's day at my parents house. Connor loves his dad so much he gets so excited when he comes home from work to play with him.

Connor is almost crawling I bet in another week or so he will have it down. He can get up on his hands and knees and move just a little but he hasn't taken off yet but I know it is soon coming. Once he starts crawling really well I am going to have a hard time keeping him in one area. Connor already moves around all over the place as he rolls around from one end of the room to another to get what toys he wants. I can't believe he is getting so big. He is growing so fast I wish he would slow done a little.

And of course he is teething. Connor has two bottom teeth that are sitting just below the gums they will be breaking through any day now, and for Donovan's and my sake I hope they come through soon. So to help ease his poor mouth we get a wet rag and put it in the freezer for a few minutes and he loves to chew on it.

The New House!!

This is the first picture of our new house. I wish I could say it is all put together I really wish it was. Eventually we will find the time to organize the garage so that we can actually park our cars inside:)
Connor really had a fun time with eating his carrots he got more on his face then he did in his mouth. We will have to try the carrots again but as for right now he really does not like to eat them. Squash and Peas still seem to be his favorite foods at the moment.

And of course after so much fun at dinner time we really needed a bath. Donovan and I can not believe how big Connor is getting. Connor is trying to crawl he can get up onto his knees he just can't quite get moving forward. Even though Connor can not crawl he sure can move all over the place he rolls in every direction to get him self around and reach for his toys he does not stay put for very long that is for sure. I just wish he would stop growing so fast:)

I am sad to say that I did not find the camera that we lost in the move so I had to buy a new one, which really is not great but I can not survive for very long without one so I had no choice but to go and get a new one.

Moving

Well we are officially moved I will have to post pictures later since during the move I have lost my camera. Although we have nothing left at our old house the new house is still in chaos I seems more and more boxes keep appearing for us to unpack. Connor is doing well I was worried that he wouldn't sleep in his new room but he had no trouble at all as long as he has his crib he does well!!! I will post pictures of Connor and our new house as soon as I find or buy a new camera.

First Campfire :)

We decided to take Connor on an outing for his first campfire. Of course it was so much fun he loved to watch the fire and listen to it crackle and pop. I do have to say that it was a lot more difficult to pick up and decide to have a camp fire one hour before we left, it sure does take alot more work to get the stuff needed to keep Connor happy especially after his bedtime since this was one of the first times he stayed up past 8. And we of course he had a hard time sleeping with all of the excitement!!!! All in all we made it and we are hoping to be brave enough to keep up the spirit and take a few camping trips this summer, what fun new adventures a little one can bring into our lives.
