Halloween Activities

After hitting the Stony Creek Pumpkin Patch with Auntie Honey a few weeks ago, we also had some other Halloween festivities we participated in. Below are pictures from those festivities as well as Halloween...the actual 31st!

Connor's Two Year Well Baby Visit

Connor had his two year well baby/child visit last week and all looks great! Here are his current stats:

Weight is 32.5 pounds (95th percentile)

Height is 38 1/4 inches and that is off the charts

Head is 49.5 cm

Dr. Boyce is very happy with his progress and saw nothing of concern!

Ga Ga Kris' Visit

My Mom pulled off a great surprise last week, coming to visit for a week and being able to make Connor's 2nd Birthday party. Thanks to all that helped plan the surprise! We had a great week and I miss her already! Can't wait to see you in warm Florida in a few weeks! Here are some pictures from the fun things we did while she was here!
Fixing things like Da Da

I just love this picture...

Connor LOVES to help with the leaves...and play in them!

Connor's 2nd Birthday

What a fun day! We had Ga Ga Kris over for breakfast (donuts, Ga Ga's doughboys and Da Da's famous scrambled eggs) and some present opening. Then, we had a little birthday party later that day. Thanks to everyone for making Connor's second birthday so special!

** Note: This is just a sampling of the pictures from the day. Please see our Shutterfly site (to the right) for all the photos.

The only picture out of order...Connor having fun with Ga Ga Kris while we were waiting for his party guests to arrive.

Birthday candles in my birthday dough boy!

Gifts from Mama, Dada, Ga Ga Kris and Ga Ga Tom

LOVED my new Elmo. He gives kisses!

The firetruck was a hit as well!

New Bob Sanders Colts jersey...mine from last year was a onsie!

He really enjoyed everyone singing to him and blowing out the candles!

Unfortunately the Willis family could not make my party, so we celebrated a little early with a week night dinner at Highland. They were kind and gave me my gift that night. I LOVE IT! It was my favorite toy I played with at Carter's, so it was perfect!

St. Pius Oktoberfest

When Mom (Ga Ga Kris) was in town visiting, St. Pius had their Inaugural Fall Festival, Oktoberfest. The event was held at the K of C and we had a great time. Connor had fun playing the kids games, listening to music, playing on the playground with Ga Ga and just hanging out on a pretty fall day!

Connor refuses to let us cut any of his food anymore, so him eating a hot dog at the festival was kind of funny! :) Note: We were also listening to music while we ate, so he was a little distracted as he LOVES music!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CONNOR!

WOW...where does the time go? Can't believe that our little man is TWO! Happy Birthday, buddy! You bring Mama and Dada more joy then you can even imagine! We love you!

Auntie Honey's Visit

We were very lucky this week and had a special visitor...Auntie Honey! She made the drive down from Chicago and we had a great 3 days together. Connor had so much fun with her and we can't wait until the next time we see her!

We did many fun things while she was here...

Sliding

She came to Music Class with us...

We hung out at home...

Auntie Honey brought Connor a fun birthday/Halloween goodie bag with lots of candy, treats and fun toys!


She also gave Connor $5 of his OWN money and we went to Toys R Us and he picked out his own toy (he ended up choosing a 5 character set of Yo Gabba Gabba figures).

She came to gymnastics class..

And we had dinner on Monday night at one of her favorite places (that they don't have in Chicago), Chik-Fil-Et (not sure I spelled that correctly...)
