Spring HAS Arrived!!


It is finally starting to feel like spring around here. We have had some beautiful weather and have started getting Connor outside more! Recently, we took him to the park to go on the swings....he loved it!! Then we took him for his first bike ride! He doesn't mind it as long as you stay moving! Here are some pics from our adventures! Enjoy!!

Connor's 1st Birthday and Easter Weekend!


We had an eventful week with Connor's 1st birthday celebration and Easter.
My mom and sister came up for the festivities and, of course, we had Jeff's parents here too. It was wonderful!! We had a small birthday party on Saturday. Unfortunately Connor was not a big fan of his cake. After numerous attempts of getting him to be interested in it....he had a melt down. So we thought we would put the cake away and try it another time where there wasn't too many people around. (That didn't work either!!). We are so thankful to everyone who sent their well wishes when they could not be there with us on Connor's special day. We would have loved to see you all but understand how far we are away!!!
Easter was extra special too...it was the first time we had a big family dinner at our house!! We all went to Easter service at church and then had a big Easter feast! I can't wait for next year when Connor will be able to participate in the easter egg hunts!!!
Here are many of the millions of pics from our wonderful weekend. And video thanks to the Godfatha! Thanks again to everyone!! It was very special 1st birthday indeed!

And the cake wins!

March Madness


That is exactly what it has been....madness!!! I haven't posted in forever...what's new, I know. Thankfully most of you will see pics through facebook, but here you will get even more!!!
So the month of March was in like a lion and out like one too. We kicked off the month with Jeff's birthday....ripe old age of 31. He got, or should I say, we got BIKES for his birthday!! We are so excited to take Connor for a ride!! Yep, haven't even gotten to do that yet! Later in the month was good ole St. Patty's Day...nothing exciting to rave about, but just another holiday to dress Connor up and show him off. After all, there is Irish blood in him so we have to acknowledge it! He was named after his grandmother, who is formerly an O'Connor! Then came my birthday....celebrating my 29th, again...heehee ;).... No pics to show from that....but it was a lovely birthday. Thinking back to where I was last year on my birthday, feels like light years away. I was anxiously awaiting the arrival of a very late baby boy. Who would have known all the joy and happiness he has brought into my life. AWWW...I could squeeze my little 'bunches'.
Here are some pics from the whirlwind that was MARCH 2010!
