6 months & Colorado

Connor, my Aunt Linda & I flew out to see my parents and celebrate my Mom's 65th birthday last week. Connor was *amazing* on all the flights-I was SO grateful! The trip was great and Connor was perfect all week. He had SO many people holding him, playing with him and in his face and even without his normal naps he was an angel. There have been a couple of times in his short life I wished he was older simply because I wanted him to be able to understand how great he did at something and that was definitely one of them! My nephews, Jonah and Mason, have been so excited to see Connor. And he didn't disappoint! Connor was lovin' on both of the boys and we have the pictures to prove it (should we need them later haha). Here are a few from the trip:










We also got 6 month pictures taken of Connor with the same girls who did our maternity and newborn pictures. I'm so glad, too, because we got some *great* pictures. He hung in for 45 minutes of pictures and while he was loosing his smiles at the end he was still a trooper. It's nearly impossible for me to choose just a few as my favorites but I'm going to try.

Growin' On Up-5 Months!

Life has been both busy and boring. I spend most of my time at school, studying, and managing our ever growing, busy boy. Jon spends the majority of his time at work or sleeping and sometimes we even get time with him :p This night shift business stinks! Just a few more months and we get the day shift back, hopefully for good. Praying for that!! In the meantime we try and stay flexible. I have 2 more weeks of school left (1 week before finals!!) and then a 2 week break for which I am VERY excited. Maybe my house will get clean at some point during those 2 weeks? hehe I have gotten a couple of pictures taken although I know I should be taking more. I do admit the last 2 pictures were *very* staged. He did not pull himself up but darn if he didn't keep himself there! Creative Event Studio (the gals who did our maternity and newborn photos) are doing a 6 month baby shoot in a couple of weeks and I'm excited about those pictures!! Until then...
