Busy bees

So much has been going on the last few weeks.  We have enjoyed some down time in the midst of all the busy moments.  But one thing has stayed true this past month, Friday's are meant for fun.  While I have had some scheduled things that may not be so fun our time as a family has been amazing.

I try not to plan too much but I always make a point that while I have time out of the office we are sure to spend plenty of time enjoying each other.  That means, in between the appointments and errands we are making time to laugh, play, learn and eat.  Because, food is just as important.

Some things Conor has been up to:
*Met and played with/petted 3 pups. 
*Swim lessons, this kid loves water and has made such great progress.
*Raked leaves with daddy and helped bag.
*Taken off with his bubble mower, making several trips to the park by foot. BEST money spent!
*Chores, Conor helps every week with trash night duties on top of a few other things.
*Making new friends and learning to share.
*Celebrated Grandma D's big birthday with family and friends.
*Decorated cookies with friends and shared with another friend.
*Lots of shopping trips and Conor picking up some familiar items.
*Advent calendar fun, which included meeting Santa and having frozen yogurt to celebrate the cry free trip.
*Enjoyed the amazing December weather we have had this year.




Figuring out what we wanted to buy.

Walk and talk, errands have to get done and calls have to be made.

Our little artist.

Trash night chores, thankfully he enjoys it every week.

Conor was not too sure about Santa but he also was okay with seeing him for a few minutes.

Peppermint frozen yogurt was a hit.


Taking time with Great Grandpa W.


And of course 18 month old Christmas Photos:






There are quite a few characters that Conor enjoys and finds everywhere we shop.

Thinking he was up for helping dad clean gutters.
