happy 'dirtday' connor


three years ago today connor came into our lives changing us forever...

at 11:17am weighing 6lbs 14oz
our life's focus shifted dramatically

james and i were laughing today about the moment we saw him
we immediately looked at each other with surprise in our eyes and then started laughing because he looked so different then we thought he would
he had lots of darkish hair and looked tan (that tan was really jaundice :)

today he weighs 28lbs and won't stop talking

he has brought us so much joy and we are loving this new stage of toddlerhood
he gives us so much love everyday he is so sweet

we cannot believe how fast the past few years have gone
and i know the next year will pass just as quickly

connor was shocked to see the banner i made him as he came down the stairs this morning
he said "oh wow, i like it mommy thank you"
we had a great day just hanging around the house and baking a dino cake and cupcakes, watching scooby doo and diego in our jammies



his 'dirtday' breakfast

he got to open two presents - zhu zhu pets
he was very excited about them and molly was not happy that she didn't get one
and even more unhappy that she could not take it from connor to play with
i was pulling molly off of him she was screaming at him
{don't worry, james ran out the door to get her one!}




i made connor a dinosaur cake! 
it was a test run for his party and it turned out pretty good



my parents came by to bring connor a present
he was so exctited to get a CARS garage set

all in all it was a great day
happy birthday baby boy
WE LOVE YOU!

and thanks to gamma and nana boyle for calling to wish connor a happy birthday
he loves to talk on the phone!
