My boys are changing so much every day!

We are missing daddy big time!
The boys are changing so much everyday!

 

My sweet sloppy two year old! :)


Connor loves to run around!!!  It's hard to keep him still actually...
In this picture he was playing tag/hid and seek with his cousins... having a blast!


Then his cousin Sam hid in the pantry... well Connor wanted him to stay in there so he grabbed the broom and did this... You can see the toes sticking out from under the door...
Connor is one smart cookie!!  I have no idea where he saw this... 


Yeah... your a little too clever for your own good... 


Vale has had a rough time of it with the whole teething thing.  He's now got two visible teeth.


He is a crawling fool!  He is loving his mobility!


Vale is also loving standing up on his own and couch surfing.  He's doing a great job!!!
His daddy's gonna be so proud when we get home! :)

Baby Steelers Fans! :)

We had a pool party for Uncle Jim's birthday.
Connor was just fine with that.


Vale was happy to be held by Nona... well at least for a while... :)


There were quite a few kids in the pool and Connor was holding his own!


My boys love their Steelers!


Vale doesn't know it yet but he's gonna be a rabid (not avid... rabid...) fan too!! :)


He look so sweet and small until he tackles you to the ground... :)


He's on the move guys!


Connor loves to watch sports!


He's such a sweet boy...

Pre-gamin', birthday and post-gamin'

We have lots of fun at the Martin house!!! :)

The day before Cassandra's birthday we did some painting.

  Connor loved it! 


On Cassandra's birthday we went to the park.



The boys played soccer...




Connor was trying to play basketball with a foam ball soooo... no dribbling and the hoops were too high... not sure if you call the basketball or just running around some asphalt with a ball... 



For lunch we went to a Japanese steakhouse with a boatload of kids!



Connor was enjoying the show...



Until the fire flared up... two seconds after this picture was taken, he was buried in my lap 



Then we took Cass to get some Mexican food for dinner and yogurt afterwards.



The next day, our 'post-gamin' we all went to Busch Gardens!
There were 15 of us!!



Connor had a ton of fun!



He was so cute on all the rides.



He would ride with his hands up! :)



He was a pretty big fan of one of the girls that went with us... :)  He kept wanting his picture with her and rode a lot of rides with her :)



It was hot but Connor didn't seem to notice... 



haha He's havin a blast!



His favorite ride is always the bumper cars... 



He is gonna be a our little thrill seeker... after this ride he was asking to ride Mach Tower... a tower with a 250 foot drop... sigh... :)

Weekend in DC

We went up to DC for my niece Adelaide's baptism last weekend.

We went to the Air and Space Museum in Dulles which was fun!

Connor and Amelia had fun running around...


We are standing under a space shuttle that actually went into space!


Connor is such a character!  I LOVE this photo!


Vale loves to cuddle!


Adelaide loved cuddling with her grandma...


Adelaide was very good during the baptism, she was so sweet!


Vale was adorable in his little tie...


Connor loves his brother!


My sweet boys!


Again... Connor is such a character!


On the way home we stopped by a friend of mines house to play for a bit...

Vale tries so hard to play along! :)


Connor loved this helmet!!!  He thought it was a football helmet... :)

Vale is crawling and getting teeth!!! AHHH!!!

Vales little bottom left tooth is coming in!!!  You can barely see it but you can sure feel it!!
(please ignore the nasty nail! Ew!)

 
Connor's into hockey right now... after he watched his Uncle James play he keeps saying, 'I skate like uncle james!' :)
 
 
Apparently he got checked or something... :)


Look at that face! :)  He's scootin all over the place now... I need to put up a video!


He's a little goober and loves to play and be played with!
