3 Years

It's really difficult for me to believe that 3 years ago tonight we welcomed our little guy into this world...Boy have these been the BEST 3 years of my life! Connor Allen is such a joy and such a fun loving child!

We had his birthday party on Saturday, and here are a few pictures from the fun festivities!

Thanks to all who made this day so special! It was such a blast...8 boys in our house age 2-6 & a 6 month old boy too...whew! It was such a blast! During the party, Connor came up to Rick and asked him to hold him. When Rick picked him up he proceeded to tell him that this was the best party ever, he loved it and he was having so much fun. He thanked Rick, hugged him and returned to playing with his friends...so precious!

So, what is Connor doing these days:

*He LOVES the alphabet

*He has a renewed love for coloring and now enjoys drawing his shapes and working on his letters

*He also loves to make shapes with his hands and with his crayons

*He is enjoying playing with all his new Christmas & Birthday toys.

*He is still such a good eater. Some of his new favorites are vegetable soup & asparagus. He still loves broccoli, carrots, and most fruits (pineapple, apples, pears, cantaloupe, etc)

I really think he could be my little vegetarian, except that he LOVES his Poppa Bear's bacon! He will tell me that he NEEDS it...so funny!

*He is really excited about being a big brother. He told us today that baby Cade could come today on his birthday. I am happy though that they will have different birthdays.

*He has a great imagination!

*He LOVES to sing. His current favorite song is "Step By Step" by Rich Mullins. It brings tears to my eyes hearing him sing it! So precious!!!

*He is quite funny...he keeps us laughing & says some pretty hysterical things!

*All in all, he is a great little guy! He brings so much joy to our family and we are so very thankful for the 3 years we have had with him! We look forward to having many more fabulous years as this little guys parents!
