Connor's 10 Latest

  1. The first thing you say when I see you every morning is, "I awake!"
  2. If bananas and cheese were the only foods you ever ate you'd be perfectly happy.
  3. Everyday when we get you dressed you can't wait to turn around and sit in my lap so we can put on your pants and socks.
  4. Your favorite phrase today when you talked to Grandma was, "You ok?" (Your concern was so sweet.)
  5. You see school buses, trucks, and any other interesting vehicles from your limited view in the backseat long before I do.
  6. Pooh bear, Piglet, Kitty and blankie all have to be in your arms every night before you'll settle in to bed.
  7. And we have to pray.  And the music box has to be wound. (I adore you, crazy boy.)
  8. Caitlin is your inspiration for whatever the next thing is that you'll do.  Enjoy getting away with being such a copycat while you can...
  9. You insist to "use" a spoon when you eat, but you always end up just holding it in one hand while you use the other to eat.  You also seem to like resting that messy eating hand on your head during mealtime more often than I would like. (Although tonight it was a plate as a hat that left a good blob of ketchup behind.)
  10. You've started to say, "poopie!" but it's hard to know what you mean by it.  Usually it's been pre-poop, so we've had some marathon potty-sitting sessions with candy bribes, but so far unsuccessful in producing anything of substance.  Trying to encourage your interest though!

Dudes n Divas

Last month the kids had their first haircuts at a real salon!  They both did so well sitting in the big chair-- and of course it didn't hurt that there were individual screens for each chair with movies playing.  They caught a little bit of Finding Nemo and were hooked, it's both of their favorite movie now that we've watched it a few more times.  They both absolutely LOVE Dori and all her crazy antics, it's so fun to see them enjoy the movie so much!

Anyway, back to the haircuts, after they were done they got suckers and color spray...Caitlin thought the experience was just okay until she saw her *pink* hair, then she was through the roof!  She made sure Connor got green too, to "match his shirt."


Love my little Dude and Diva!
