Happy 12th Birthday, Connor!!

Connor has been asking for a phone for months now.  I have always told him No. I don’t know what came over us, but we decided that we would see if he could be responsible with one. He doesn’t get free reign with his phone. We set many rules for him to follow. He is such a good kid, and is doing well in school. We are so proud of him! I love this look on his face, he couldn’t believe he was really getting a phone!

Along with this special Birthday, Connor was ordained a Deacon on Sunday! He was so excited and he looked so sharp in his new Suit! Connor also received his Faith in God Award in Church too. I can’t even express how proud I am as his Mother.

Connor is also doing well in Football! He is so fun to watch. He is playing Free Safety & Center! This first picture is of him in the middle wearing red #8. He is holding the big guy in white from getting through the line!

 

We love you Connor so much and are so honored to be your parents! We look forward to the next few years, knowing you will achieve great things as always! Happy Birthday!! Love you, Mom & Dad!!

My little sidekick…

Now that the kids are in school it’s just me and my little sidekick. We have had a lot of firsts this month. It all started with Baylee finally getting a big girl bed! She was so excited she kept saying Thank you mommy and daddy, the entire night. It was so fun to see her excitement, we should have done this a long time ago but I couldn’t quite give up the crib because I was in denial that my baby is a little girl now.

Next, Baylee started Ballet. She is so tiny, in fact I think she is the smallest one in her class. She looked so cute all decked out in her dance clothes. She had so much fun!

And finally, Baylee makes the cutest little running partner! After the kids are off to school we load up in the new jogger stroller that I found on KSL for only $25.00 and head out for a run. Baylee looks forward to this and even has her sunglasses waiting in the stroller everyday. I did have to teach her not to talk to mommy while she’s running because she liked to ask me a hundred questions each time and it made it hard for me to run and talk to her.

We are having such a fun time together, I am eating up all these little moments with her. Before I know it she will be off to Kindergarten and I will be all alone :( I sure do love this spunky little girl, she makes my days so much more brighter!
