Connor: Seven Months (+6 days) Old

Dear Connor,

    You are 7 months and 6 days old! I am a few days late taking your monthly pictures and writing this, but we were out of town when you turned 7 months. You are growing up so fast and are such a cute little boy. You light up when we walk into the room, and get sad when we walk away. It shows us just how much you love us! We also love how you raise your arms up when you want to be picked up. Sometimes we pass you back and forth just because we like to see you reach for us. We love you so, so, so much.

XOXO,

Mommy and Daddy

Minnesota: Day 7

   We left Spicer at 7 in the morning and got to the airport at about 9:30. Going through security was such a hassle this time. They checked almost all of our bags because we had Connor's milk, baby food, wipes, etc. all  in different bags. They weren't picky on our way to MN, but on our way home they were! It was embarrassing having them look through everything. They were really nice though, and completely understood. They just recommended that next time we put all our liquids in one bin. 

    Connor was pretty restless on our first flight. He did not want to sit down, so I spent a good 20 minutes standing up with him in the back of the airplane. I am so grateful that the flight attendants were so nice and all the people around us loved Connor. 

   We stopped in Atlanta again, but this time had a 2 1/2 hour layover. We were thankful for that. We were starving, so we had lunch at one of the restaurants.

Happy to be off the airplane!

Minnesota: Day 6

     Today was our last full day in Minnesota. Since Aaron's dad and Aaron got their deer, today we spent time with family.

Minnesota: Day 5

     Since Aaron shot his deer yesterday, he didn't have to hunt today. That meant he got to sleep in past 5am, and more importantly help with Connor during the night! I was so happy that we were able to have "family time" today.

Saying goodbye to Auntie Chrissy and Uncle Ryan.

Minnesota: Day 4

     This is our fourth day in Minnesota and we have noticed that Connor has been needier and fussier than usual. His grandpappy decided to buy him a jumper to use for the rest of our stay in hopes that it would keep him happy. 

 There were lots of pieces.
