Ice Cream

I don't know why but I think watching Connor eat an ice cream cone is so entertaining... He just makes me smile. (sorry it's sideways...)

Spontaneous Night

Yesterday morning I got a call from my brother n'law Sean asking for some help finding a hotel for his family to stay at, that night for fun. He and his wife had the night and the next day off from work and he wanted to do something special for them. So the "activities director" got to work and found a really awesome resort close by that had a great water park. After Kiel got home from work I told him what Sean was planning and he sounded excited about it and eventually.... with some encouragement from Sean and Kiel, I booked us a room for the night as well. A couple hours later we were packed and headed to the Arizona Grand Resort. After everyone got checked in we went out to scope out this "water park" they advertised so much. It was impressive!! A kiddie pool (1 1/2 foot pool with splash pad), a wave pool/beach, a lazy river with rapids, 3 huge water slides, and another pool for volleyball. The kids loved it!!! After an hour of playing we went back and got cleaned up for dinner... Mexican food... yum. Today we went out again for most of the morning. We called it a day at about 1. The temps were already around 100 degrees and we all got Plenty of sun! Connor, Kiel and I headed home... cleaned up and the 3 of us took about a 2 1/2 hour nap... The Arizona sun really drains ya.. It was a nice day off! Kiel had a really busy&rough week last week so I thought something like this would be nice, and it really was! We talked about coming back each year, it was that fun!! I didn't get many photos...due to my pregnant-self being in the water as well.. but here are a couple!!

"Potty Time"

The past couple of days I've been doing some research about potty training. I don't really know for sure if Connor is ready but last night we went out and bought a little potty and treats to reward with... We'll see how it goes but I would really love it if I could get him trained before the baby comes.

My lil' swimmer

Connor's cousin is having his 1st birthday party on Saturday... it's a pool party.. Yeah!! Connor has gotten more excited about swimming so Kiel and I got him so things to help his swimming.. we tested them today.. it wasn't the greatest weather today so we didn't swim very long but here are so photo's of our little fish!!

A week in Park City

My girlfriend Michelle was driving up to Utah last week with her son Logan alone... The day before she left we had lunch together and I told her I was thinking about tagging along.. After talking to Kiel I booked a flight home and told Michelle I was coming! She seemed excited about having the company and help in the car. He split the trip in 2 days stopping in St. George the first night. Connor and I stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Miller, which was awesome. We loved staying there.. but the next morning we were back on the road for SLC. "Gamma" met us and took Connor and I the rest of the way to Park City. It's been a great trip.. The weather here in Park City has been wonderful! Just beautiful here! Well here are some pictures from our adventures!! Helping Pappa cheat at Hand and Foot... or just stealing ice cream!!Making phone calls in Grandpa's shoes..."hello?"

Connor loved the Trampoline!!! He was asking Erin to come jump with him!!A Day at Park City, Park with Grandma, Grandpa and Erin
Connor had so much fun with his "Gamma"
She was a Brave one to take him down that Huge Slide! He loved it!Connor had fun with Aunt Erin!
Today we went to the Children Discovery Museum in Salt Lake...when we got there we realized they were closing in 45 minutes so we rushed Connor around to see everything he could!! He had so much fun!! In the little "grocery store" he tried to eat all the plastic food! Connor said "Bye" to each of the balls that went up the shoot! Look Dad... I'm driving! "LaLaLa" Driving the helicoptor on the Roof...He was on and off the horse in about 3 seconds..."Down" what's next? Dinner with Grandma after the Museum.. Yum Yum. Thank you Gamma!!!

Mother's Day weekend.

A couple of weeks ago I told my friend Michelle that we would watch Logan so they could go off on a romantic anniversary weekend. So some pictures from our exciting weekend!!! It was a good weekend. The boys had a lot of fun waking up together and realizing the other was still there. It was cute.

The boys enjoyed their Bubble bath outside!!

Now 2 days later Michelle, Logan, Connor and I are getting into her car and driving up to Salt Lake... We're stopping for a night in St.George and then driving more the next day!!! Hopefully the boys will entertain each other:) I wish Kiel could travel more often with me but we'll miss him! It will be nice to be in cooler weather with my Momma!! It's already in the 100's down here... Yuck!!!

*Splish Splash*

Yesterday we said goodbye to Grandma Miller and after our nap we set up Connor's New toy. I rearranged things on the deck so there was room for his little Froggie Pool!! He saw it and did his cute evil laugh and jumped right in! It will be great for this summer. This morning while Kiel was mowing our lawn Connor, his friend Logan, his momma (Michelle), and I sat under the umbrella and played in the water. With Bubbles, Balls and Petey Connor has so much fun in his new pool.
