We are Back!

Okay everyone, I know it has been such a long time but we are back online! Since I last posted many things have happened.

Connor turned 2. I can't believe it. He gets so much cuter everyday. His personality is really starting to shine through. He is talking so much and really becoming such a little boy. He started sleeping in his own big boy bed. He had no problem with this at all. We created a little camping room for him and he loves it. He brings so much joy to our lives. I love that he is so full of energy. I love that he wakes me up in the middle of the night just to say hi. I love that he gives the best hugs and kisses. I am so blessed to be his mom.

We spent many a day by the pool. It was a great summer! We were able to have many friends over and had so much fun. We purchased this great underwater camera. It takes pictures and videos. This was the "toy" of the summer. We have some great memories.

My brother turned 40. I can't believe it. My sister in law threw him a surprise party. It was a great night to celebrate what a great person he is. We had a little incident with Kari and the baby, but all was well.

We had baby showers for my sister Kerry and my sister in law Kari. It was a very busy summer. Two new additions coming to our family. They were both great parties. I also went out to LA for Kerry's shower there. It was a great trip! I am still convinced that we should open our own party planning business. We do it so much and we all have so much fun.


Chris and I took the kids to the Biltmore for a mini staycation! It was an interesting time. We had fun but it was really crowded. The kids were able to swim and we even watched Madagascar in the pool. Kate thought that was great! We had some major troubles with our room, but all and all it really was great! Kelly was kind enough to take the kids for a night so we could have a break. We went to a great dinner and saw The Hangover! The funniest movie ever! Thank you Kelly so much for giving us a break!

The kids and I went to Pinewood with Kelly and the kids. We rented a big cabin and the weather was beautiful. It was a perfect weekend. We took the kids on walks and bike rides. We were able to go to the country club and play in the rec room and go swimming. The kids had a blast. I want to do this every year. It was so great to spend time with Kelly and let all the kids play.

We truly had a great summer. I am already ready for the next one!
I have made a little photo montage from the summer, Enjoy!
