The things Connor says . . .

I will often tell Connor that we will do something (i.e. Go to the zoo, park, library) tomorrow.
connor's reply every.time: This is tomorrow

Driving/ riding in the car:

Watch Out! That car is going too slow! Blow the horn!

PBS channel wasnt working for a day soon after the tornadoes. I explained that despite my super-mommy powers, I could not fix the channel so we could watch Sid The Science Kid.


Connor's response: The remote will help you, Mommy.

Proving Connor is at least partially a Davis even if he looks "just like {his} daddy", every shirt he puts on he announces whether it has a tag. Some shirts he refuses to wear because the "tag is bothering". This is straight from his Big Daddy and Uncle Ben.

Connor knows our phone number. We worked on it a few months ago but I let it go once we started potty training. A week ago Connor just blurted it out. I guess he was listening. . .

Connor may be the ONLY kid who prefers leftovers. When I ask him what he wants for lunch or dinner he always lists off several items he would like and then says:

It's already made?

Perhaps he just has less patience than his mom - uh oh.

WORDS I DIDNT THINK I WOULD HEAR FOR 10 YEARS:

I walked into Connor's room once the "light" was green. He was still sleeping and normally I would not wake a sleeping child, but since potty training I have been reluctant to let him sleep much past 6:15.

Me: Good Morning, Connor.

Connor: I'm still sleeping, please come back when the light turns off.

WHO IS THIS??

Maybe the . . .

Next American Idol?

Meteorologist

So, we are back from our quick trip to the gulf. One of my roommates from college lives in Georgia but we rarely see her . . . And when we do it is when we are all back in Maryland. To remedy this we met up at the beach despite the gloomy forecast, I am thrilled the meteorologist was wrong (yet again). A nice relaxing weekend, smooth drive down & back (thanks to Colin), and super sweet kiddos - the beach and pool are magical!


Fast friends Brookleyn & Connor


Sweet. . .

Big Boy Bed

A few pictures of Connor's new room . . . Well, it is really his old room, minus the baby furniture. He loves it. Still needs some shelf help but it is functional.

One less bag . . .

Yes, until at least early August the diaper bag has been retired!!! Connor is officially a big boy and a graduate of potty training. We started April 8th and followed Potty Train In Three Days by Lois Kleint. I found this book through a friend, Sherri, who has trained both her boys this way. I had HIGH expectations. I wanted to quit midway through Day 1. Then I remembered, it is ONLY 3 days. We can do this (luckily "we" expanded to include Colin for Day 2 & 3). The method worked for us and the best part is no pull-ups, no diapers, nothing! We are sooooo proud of Connor!

Here is a recent pic of Connor at the Art Show
