Fun-day Monday!

Toddler indoor playground at Chick-fil-a = Pure joy for one little boy!

Happy Monday!!!

New 'do', New ride!

With thanks to a family friend that has boy hand-me-downs & handy man Papa, we were in business last night with Connor's new bike seat!! He looked so darn cute holding on and ready for a ride. I think he will LOVE it in the daylight when he can check things out.

And...Connor looks super-duper adorable after his new haircut from his personal barber, ME! No, I have no photos from the actual haircut process, but will try to paint the picture for you.

Booster high chair--front yard--buzzers--screaming, terrified child--barking, annoying dog--flustered Mother!

Connor screams the moment you turn on the buzzers. My poor child. He was blessed with thick, fast growing, hair, so we had to get it done. When we were finally done, he looked like he had aged a year. He's such a big boy with his buzz cut! Ughh...I could eat him up!!

Hair cut shot :)


Big boy with his big helmet...and yes, I am fully aware that a large helmet does not flatter an already large head...but Connor wears it well! :)






"This is great! Thanks Papa!"

More Christmas fun...

Yummy breakfast


Ok. So I'm not a major drinker by any means, but loved this gift from Katie. It's white wine that reads: "Middle Sister, Wicked White". That's me in a nutshell :)


More play time fun on his new motor bike from Uncle Craig & Auntie Nicole! He was having a blast!




"Thank you, Uncle Craig!"


My favorite new jammies :)

In the Christmas spirit...

Its two days before Christmas & we are feeling very festive and jolly! Nothing says Christmas like a morning of "Dora Christmas Special", baking, wrapping, and singing along to "Mickey Mouse Christmas Carols." While we were busy baking, here's a clip of Mr. I've- got- it- made- in- the- shade relaxing...

And no Christmas is complete without....STREAKING! I'm only kidding, of course. Connor would beg to differ :) And be sure to check out Connor's bowl-full-of-jelly belly. Such a chunker-munker, he is!

Annual Kazor Christmas Party!

Last night was the Annual Kazor Christmas bonfire party on Pine Island. After talking with Rach, we came to discover the party was actually first started in honor of my birthday (ages and ages ago). Now, its the 'famous' get together that we all look forward to every December. This was Connor's second year joining in on the festivities & he was quite the show-stealer. Guess its kind of hard for him to go un noticed with the non stop noises/running/"look at me" behavior. He did really well, unless you decided to feast on yummy food in his presence without sharing! Connor's recent toy of choice---plastic balls---like the ones you'd find in the ball pit at McDonald's. He loves to play fetch with himself for HOURS! So he spent a good part of the night rolling his ball throughout the kitchen. We ventured out to the bonfire, but didn't stay too long as Connor went from "Wow, how pretty" to "Wow, I want to touch it." Even though it was pretty chilly, we found a cozy place on the patio to hang out and chit chat with everyone. Connor was busy climbing up and down the step & showing off his famous "Cheese face" for everyone when I pulled out the camera.

The party host and hostess---Got a kick out of everyone with their wine glasses while Rach was busy holding a sippy cup! :)


Taking a break from playing ball to make his squinty, goofy face for the camera.


Climbing on the patio





The sad, pathetic face after a minor tripping incident.


I can say "pathetic face", because I know he was being rather dramatic. Exhibit A: Connor went from sad face to smiley by me just holding up the camera & saying "Cheese!"


*The arched back thing he does now when he wants to get down and walk. Makes this 25lb boy even easier to hold!


Connor giggling after Tristan made silly noises.


Connor giving Brynn a run for her money!

Hoodie!

Watching Papa mow...






Nana love...

Random joy

Just a few random pictures from the past week to make you smile.


"Ready...Set...Hike"



A night out on the town with Nana & Papa. Connor consumed a large quantity of spinach that night...which Mommy was pleasantly surprised with in his diaper the next morning :)



Mmmmm....


The smile that melts hearts.

Connor has a special bond with his Papa. Caught them relaxing on the patio. A rare moment Connor is laying still.
