Connor trying to surf on his new surf board from The Jimenez Fam,
in the jumpy house :D

WOW. I can not believe our little boy is TWO!!!! And boy does he have a personality. This little stinker is so LOVEABLE! I LOVE that he can say his ABC's, recognize about 15 letters, count to 20 - always skipping number 16 :D, recognizes a few numbers, sings lots of different songs, plays the guitar like he really knows what he is doing, has memories Good Night Moon & The Very Hungry Catepillar, wants to surf (just a few days ago, Connor said to me, "Bye Mom, be back soon, going check waves," with his spooner board (mini looking surfboard under his arm), just entered the "Why?" stage and when you ask him Why?, he answers "because", enjoys going on Alley Way walks to find trash cans and "pretty flowers" (the flowers that are growing as wild flowers and/or weeds), helps out with his baby sister and always tells her "I love you so much"...I am sure I can go on forever. 

Connor's birthday party was a blast this year. Since Connor loves trucks, we threw him a construction truck partay! I had a lot of fun getting ready for it. Daddy insisted on a jumpy house because Connor loves to jump off anything and everything. It was the excitement for sure. We could not get Connor out of the jumpy house...we had to open presents in there and Mike even had to change his diaper in there
(don't tell the jumpy peeps ;)!). He played in it for about 6 hours, managed to take one bite of his dinner and pass out at 5:30pm :D. It was a great day with lots of friends and family...thank you to all of you who helped celebrate with Connor, we are so blessed to have you apart of our lives!
