Zoobies!

My parents are watching my brother's kids while he and his wife are in San Diego. This morning my nephew who's 3 said "grama what exciting thing do you have planned today for us!" Feeling the pressure, they decided to take the kids to the zoo and so they invited Conner and I along for the fun. We have been tagging along a lot lately since Mark has been work 75 hour weeks for over a month now which includes Saturdays. Conner did get excited about the elephants and giraffes but the rest of the animals weren't so up close and personal so he just enjoyed the ride.

Conner and I had on our green for St. Patricks day!
I loved Audrey's smile. classic

Conner turned 9 months a week ago and it's crazy how much he has developed in the past few weeks. Not only has he started to cut his bottom left tooth but he is pulling himself up on everything. His new tricks are giving high five's and clapping and sometimes he'll even perform them for others!

Ingenuitive

First off let me just say this little boy makes my day.
This morning I was having breakfast at the table while Conner was sitting on the ground in the living room playing with toys. I was thinking about all I had to do today when I hear this little guy giggling.

His smile and laugh can break through ANY gloom.

When I looked up he had tipped the laundry basket over and was using it as a walker pushing it towards me. (He has just recently started pulling himself up on the furniture and people and is enjoying this new-found freedom) He was so proud of himself he was just giggling and smiling at me. I sprinted for the camera!
Melts my heart :)
