WOW~ It's been WAY too long!

I am really going to try and get better about blogging! I promise! :)

We are really trying to soak up all of the beautiful weather right now! Connor is playing soccer, and Miss Abbie is being a great little cheerleader! Her biggest accomplishment this new year has been to potty train!! YAY!! Michael has been furiously working on enclosing our garage into a playroom! I can't wait! I have moved into a new position at work, and I am now the personal banker. I open all new accounts and handle customer service. I love it! It gets a little crazy at times...but it helps the day pass quickly! Speaking of...I have to head off to get dressed for work! Stop by soon for more updates!!!

Santa's Wonderland!

Connor rode his first bull Saturday night! He was a pro!! He got a huge response from the crowd too!! He was just too cute!
We also rode through the lights on the hayride. These were some of my favorite scenes!

Connor's Birthday Party

We had Connor's birthday party at Chuck E Cheese Saturday. He had a wonderful time and so did Abbie!!

Happy Birthday Connor!!!

My baby boy is 4 years old!!
Connor is such a sweet little boy. He is always hugging, snuggling, and telling you he loves you! He is ALL boy though! These days Connor loves to play with his dinosaurs and kick around the soccer ball! He can name all of his dinosaurs and takes pride in each one he has!!
He got a great surprise this morning when he woke up!! It had snowed over night!! He was so excited!
It started to snow again about 2:30 this afternoon and didn't stope here until well after 7pm!! It is so pretty here right now!
Connor's birthday party is this Sat. but to celebrate on his actual birthday we had pizza and make-your-own sundaes tonight! He got to open our gift to him tonight. He is Roboraptor!! Connor LOVES him, Bailey....not so much. She went CRAZY!! Below are a few pictures from tonight, and a little collage of pictures I put together of Connor.

Abbie's Big Girl Bed!!

Well we thought it was time to move Miss Abbie to her "Big Girl" bed. I hadn't been able to find a twin size that I liked, and that wasn't too expensive. So when I saw this little toddler bed I fell in love! I am not usually big on character themed ANYTHING for the kids, but I just love the Disney Fairies line! It is so pretty!

Abbie LOVES it too! Here are a few shots of her when she first saw it!

I can't believe my baby is growing up so fast!!

*sniff sniff*

On Our Way!!

Saturday is my BIG birthday!! I will be 25 on October 25th!! To celebrate, the kids and I will travel to Houston to spend the weekend with Michael. He has done so well at this job, and is really enjoying it. I know he hates to be away from us, but he does enjoy it.
We plan to go to the Aquarium on Saturday and then to the Zoo on Sunday!! We are all so excited! We all love the Zoo and the Aquarium, and it has kind of become a tradtion for Michael and I to go to both when we travel somewhere. Abbie has never been to either, so it will be fun sharing it with her!

Check back for pictures!!

A night for soccer and playing at the park...

Tonight we got to the park a bit early for soccer and were able to play. Here are a few pictures I was able to get between helping Connor on the monkey bars and rescuing my dare-devil (Abbie) from climbing up the big stairs. She only fell once, but that was enough! The girl has no fear!! She puts enough in Mommy though!!

Connor is playing soccer this fall, and is loving it!

He played in the spring so he is somewhat experienced. His is really improving this fall, and is very quick!
