Valentine's Day

    Happy Valentine's Day! I've enjoyed my day with my two Valentines and hope you have as well. We started our celebration on Sunday morning with bacon, eggs and toast, followed by homemade pop tarts. Why on Sunday and not today? Well because Aaron had to work today and Connor had school first thing in the morning, so I wanted to treat them to a good breakfast on a day that we weren't rushed. {I made enough pop tarts to last us until this morning so we could still have a Valentines{ish} breakfast on the actual day.}

The pop tarts came out pretty tasty and my boys approved {recipe found below}.

Homemade Valentines

   Valentine's Day is coming up, and my crafty side is coming out. I thought it would be fun to make some homemade Valentines for Connor to hand out to his friends. Since he is obsessed with "Army guys" and all of his friends at school have a parent in the military, I figured it would be perfect to include them in his Valentines. So cue a little Pinterest searching, and I came up with these...

Snow Day

    On this beautiful Friday that Aaron had off, we woke up to snow covered everything! When Connor looked outside, his eyes lit up in delight. He immediately woke up Aaron and told him he wanted to go out and play. He had been asking for snow since before Christmas, so he was ready! We put on our snow gear that we bought last year for our trip to Switzerland {thank goodness it still fit all three of us} and went out to play for at least an hour. We had so much fun throwing snowballs and running around.

A New Year

     Happy New Year! I have a feeling this year is going to be pretty wonderful. We are moving to Texas, we are building a house, we will be near family, and who knows what other surprises it will bring!

XOXO,

Jenn

CONNORisms 2.0

      A few months ago I did a post entirely of quotes from Connor. Since then I have been saving his recent ones on my phone for another post. I never want to forget the funny things he says, so here are his newest quotes:

9/27/16 I was rocking Connor before bed the night he got hurt at soccer practice.

Me: I got scared when you got hurt.

Connor: Me too.

Me: I love you. You're my baby.

Connor: Okay. I stop growing. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. 

9/28/16 I was talking to Connor about not eating his boogers.

Me: Boogers are yucky to eat.

Connor: No they're not. They're good to eat. 

Me: What do they taste like?

Connor: Strawberries!
