Summer's coming to an end

So- I've realized that summer is coming to an end. Poor Connor is going to have a rude awakening at the end of August when he has to wake up at 6. His sleeping in to 8 or 9 is going to end. :( I still want to take him the the sprinkler park before the summer ends. I think he'll have a great time.
Things have been going well so far. We have been going to the pool, library play dates, and going to many different stores. We're going to Ohio this weekend for the family's version of Connor's 1st b-day party. It should be interesting.

Need a change

So- I need something different. I've been off for a month or so and I'm getting quite bored. Now- I love hanging out with Connor and he seems to be having fun. But- there's only so many times I can do this. It was fun for the first month- but I have a whole month left. Well- I think I'll have to look on the internet for some inspiring things. If anyone looks at this blog and is a mom- can you give me some hints.

Little Sleep Weekend

So- we went to my parents house in Ohio this past weekend for my cousin's graduation. The two nights that we were there- Connor had a really difficult time sleeping. On Friday, he woke up crying hysterically. We didn't have any Tylonel, so we hoped for the best. He finally went to sleep. Then- on Sat., he woke up within an hour of going to sleep. We ended up having him sleep with us. I was so ready to go home after those two nights. Now on Tuesday- we are still catching up on the sleep that we lost over the weekend.

Other than that- things have been going well. We have been going to play group and the pool.

July 17

So...it's been awhile. Connor and I have been really busy. (Not really) Connor celebrated his first birthday last Friday. He had his birhtday party on Sunday and loved eating his cake. He's been enjoying himself in the pool, and I feel like he'll try to swim before summer is over. We're going to Ohio this weekend to see my cousin and aunt and uncle. I haven't seen them in over a year and they're really excited to meet Connor for the first time.

I really need to get some pictures up- but my computer is horrible and it'll have to wait until I get back to school. Well- I'm going to surf the net a little more since everyone's asleep. :)

July 7

So I haven't written lately, so let me catch up on what has been going on. Last week, we were pretty busy. We went to the park with Peggy and Josie on Wednesday and took two more walks that day. I was getting cabin fever.
On Thursday, we hung out at home and I was able to get an hour of sun. On Friday, it was the 4th of July, so we went over to John's mom's house and had fun at the park and with all the other kids.
Today, is Monday, and we went to story time. We had a lot of fun and came home to some of my co-workers working on my patio. I'm so excited! Hopefully it will be done by Connor's 1st birthday party. Connor's sleeping right now, so I'm able to surf the internet.

July 1

So- Connor woke up at 4:00 this morning. Yikes. Steve and I still don't know why he woke up so early, but we gave him some food, let him play around for a little bit and he finally went back to bed at 5:15. I woke him up around 9 to go to our play group with the teachers at Milan. He had a lot of fun and we ended up coming back around 12:30.
He went on a walk and then he finally went down for a nap around 2:30. This weekend we're going to go to John's house to celebrate his birthday. It should be a lot of fun.
