A glorious day...finally

It's finally a glorious day so Connor and I could enjoy some time outside for the first time this month. Connor and I have taken some walks and we've run errands and such, but we couldn't sit outside or take afternoon strolls just to get some air in quite some time.

The weather man said on the news, that it hasn't been over 60 for a high all month and for Houston, that's cold. The past week, the highs have been in the 40's and we've had hard freezes for about a week. Again, temps in the 20's and 30's is very rare for Houston and boy am
I glad to feel the warmth of the sun today. It's about 65 and there isn't a cloud in the sky. It's simply gorgeous.

We went to our mother goose time this morning at the Library and then since I was in such a good mood because of the weather, we went out for lunch and sat outside. Connor did great. It was a quick lunch, but it still felt like a treat. Then, we strolled over to a nearby park and tried out the swings and the slides. Connor still doesn't really have much of an opinion on slides, but he actually seemed to like the swings this time.

There were a few older kids at the park and I couldn't help imagining Connor when he's a high energy little boy running and hopping all over the place. I'm sure it will be here before I know it. For now, I just had fun pushing my chunky little baby in the swings.

Here are a few shots from this weekend and this week.

Connor still loves bath time and is usually very happy when he gets out. Oh and you can't see from this photo, but Connor definitely has 4 teeth now. The top two have successfully come in. The one on the left is further along than the one on the right, but they are definitely both there.

Connor is now sitting up to read stories, not lying down.

The Christmas season is officially over, we took down our lights this weekend. Clearly, Connor was a big help.

Hey guys, do you need my help with those lights? I can chew on them for you?

It was starting to warm up yesterday, but it was still a little chilly in the evening, so Connor was sporting his new Robeez boots. They've got snowboarding bears on them. How cute is that.

Connor in his boots, helping Daddy grill. Poor Daddy had a bit of a bug over the weekend, but he's feeling better now.

Connor enjoying some extended time outside in the swings. We are lucky to have so many parks in walking distance of our house.

A video of Connor swinging. He would sometimes smile when he got close to me and kick his little legs. It was adorable.
