Ready to eat

Connor started eating cereal this week. I can't believe how fast my little baby is growing. He's such a big guy. He made some really awesome faces the first night but after a few bites he was taking it down like a pro! It's been about 5 days now and he really gets excited and reaches for the spoon with his mouth. He's so much fun and everyday he does something new. I love being a mommy.

Too cute!

I put Connor in his swing today so I could get a few things done and two seconds later he was out. I couldn't resist capturing this moment. I didn't realize how sleepy the poor guy was.

It's a start

This weekend James got motivated and decided to start our backyard! He was determined to put the grass in and enlisted some help from Brandon and Jason (thanks again guys!). I couldn't believe how fast they put the sod down. I didn't even get a chance to take before and after pictures. Max and Beans couldn't wait to try it out. The guys only got one row down before they were out there marking their teritory. But it looks so good and I can't wait to get the rest of the yard done. James has lots of great plans for it. I've decided to go out on a limb and try to do some gardening. I'm so excited to get that started and have a nice backyard just in time for summer.

Happy Anniversary!

Today is our 2nd wedding anniversary! It has been the most exciting and eventful two years of my life. James is an amazing father and husband and has made our dreams come true. I feel so lucky and blessed to have such a wonderful person to spend my life with! He alsways knows what I need, loves to surpise me and makes me laugh. I love you James! Happy anniversary.

A year in review...

Tomorrow is our two year wedding anniversary, and I must say that it has been quite a year. In the past year we have gotten a puppy, bought a house, had a baby and bought a car. The puppy (Beans) was my gift for our first wedding anniversary and my pregnancy was James' Valentine's Day gift. Well, then we decided we needed to plant some roots and purchase a house. THe car was just an added bonus. James is a great husband and has managed to make it all possible. He manages to keep our life full of surprises!

Do you see the resemblence?

So I stumbled across this picture of James when he was about Connor's age. We didn't believe his mom, but she's right, Connor looks just like him! You can't tell by the picture all the way, but in real life he is a spitting image of his daddy.

Oh Mama, No!

Oh yes I did! Yesterday was probably the coldest days Tucson will ever see so I bundled Connor up in his bear outfit from Baby Gap. I wasn't sure of the practicality of this outfit when my mom gave it to me, but then I got it once I put it on him I couldn't resist! He was so adorable in it! He didn't like the hood much but the pants kept him very warm.
