Connor's Tree

So in decorating Connor's tree in kid ornaments I found a couple a recipes I will be trying tomorrow. Rylan will be here so we will have a fun craft to do. Hopefully the ornaments will somewhat look like the pictures that I found. If not they will still be cute for a kids tree. So wish me luck as I give it a try. I will try to post some pictures of the ornaments tomorrow along with the Christmas walk. I will be going on another one I believe this weekend, so there will be more pictures.

My Computer...

So when I got back from Black Friday, I found out that my computer wasn't working. I was stressed and Ryan call our friend Ryan to check it out. Ryan owns hih own computer business. YaY for that. I guess my Power Supply had enough of me working on my computer and called it quits. Ryan said it was so bad that he is surprised my computer didn't start on fire. I have to say so am I. So today I am burning all of Connor's pics that I haven't done yet just in case. I have been doing a good job ever since I read about Amy's computer. I could care less about all the other documents. My pictures of my Connor could never be replaced. So now that I have my computer up and running I have got a lot of school work to get caught up on. I also have to find some crafts for Connor and Ryan so we can make some CHRISTmas decorations. Connor has his own little tree and I want it to be decorated it just his decorations. We also went to another CHRISTmas walk. It was at Garland. It was so beautiful. Connor has sooo much fun. I will be posting some pics very soon. I love that as a family we are able to do fun things like that. I am very thankful for my family.

BLACK FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!

So it's almost time for the shopping spree. I am really excited this is my first year that I can go. I am broke and am hoping to find really good deals. I will be getting things for CHRISTmas and Connor's B-day which is in February. Ryan and I aren't getting each other gifts this year(money reasons), so all i need to do is shop for kid things which I LOVE doing. I know what I'm getting my little man and hopefully can just wait till CHRISTmas to give it to him. We are leaving at 4:00am so we might be a little cranky. Which means I can push people out of my way to get what I want....:-)...He He..I guess that could work out to my advantage. Wish me luck. I hope to make it out alive, and with a little money still in my pocket..:-)

CHRISTmas Walk

We went on the CHRISTmas walk again this year. It is a nice little production that our town does every year. They have Santa and Mrs. Clause, and this year they had Reindeer. They also had a horse and waggon ride. We did it all it was sooo nice a perfect evening. I even went into the museum this year. I have lived hear all my life and that was the first time. I got to say it was really nice. Connor loved the horse ride and wanted to go on it again. His old fart parents were to cold so we just enjoyed the rest of the walk. It is nice that our community does this and I hope every one got out and enjoyed it as much as we did............ Connor and daddy watching Santa.
Me and my Little stud...
Me and my two favorite men, but i have no idea why my face is so white.

A New Tradition

So I am starting a new tradition this year with Connor. We are going to start making gingerbread houses for CHRISTmas. I am thinking about a week before we will attempt to try it. Then every year after that, until he decides his mom is lame. I am looking forward to it and know Connor will love it. He loves to do anything that involves getting messy..Which I am sure it will be. The letter of the week went really well; this week Connor can tell me the letter "A" and also knows that "A" is for angel. I am very excited and am hoping the excitement in him keeps up. He has also started memorizing lately. Just last month he really wasn't able to memorize a song. Within the past few days he is now singing "Jesus Loves Me" it is soooo cute. Today was also a Big day. Connor went pee standing up for the first time. YaY!!! I am really excited about this, because that means he won't have to sit on the potties in restrooms. Even though I bring my Lysol spay to spray the seat. It is really gross. I am just amazed at how much can change in a week with children. Connor amazes me everyday. I am so overjoyed to be his MOM and can't imagine my life without my little man.

ABC's

So I am going to start to try to teach Connor his ABC's. Not only to say them but to recognize the letters to. He knows the letters in his name so that's a start right. I found this website that for each letter it has a Bible theme behind it. This week we will hopefully be learning A is for angel. We did a turkey project and he knows "T" is for Turkey. I think for Connor is helps to associate a picture with the letter. He has really been into this game I bought him it's calls Max the Monkey. He is always asking me to play "Max the Monkey game". It has a lot of pictures of different things like it will show an elephant and then show an elephant eating peanuts and you would ask what the elephant is doing he loves it. We play that one about three to four times a day. So wish me luck on the ABC's ;-)
