Beautiful Weather Has Arrived In Arizona!

I have been waiting for the weather to turn nice! i'm so sick of it being in the 90's. the end of October has finally brought it to me! i know other places got snow, but i've got some wonderful weather! Yay for me!  ..... Now on to what you all REALLY want to see.

My son usually hates hats...it's very rare he lets them stay on his head long. but this week, he's been obsessed with them. i was cracking up when i saw him wandering around with this crown on his head UPSIDE-DOWN! he was very pleased that i noticed, and came over to take squishy-smile pictures. he seems to think he needs to hold it on his head haha.

 Once again, a hat is all he's willing to wear. The other day he was crying, and i picked up Caleb's patrol cap and plopped it on his head. He glared at me until i brought him into the bathroom and stood him in front of the mirror and said "wow! you look like Daddy!" then he had huge smile, and happily ran around the house with it on his head. He even came over to pose for pictures! Apparently it's ok to wear hats when they make him big like Dad!

I know i've mentioned before how Connor likes to sit in baskets. This particular one is supposed to have his toys in it, but he seems to prefer himself in it. He makes me laugh!

 

 I know every is probably thinking "when are we going to see pictures that he actually is dressed in!" Well, that time is now. i really do dress my child, but he hates clothes, and undresses himself. the little stinker! it's horribly frustrating.

 Today it is BEAUTIFUL weather. Meaning like 78-ish, sunny, and only the slightest breeze. i have our porch door open, the sun shining in, and i've been in one fabulous mood! So, i decided to try to attempt to get some pictures of him dressed, and with my camera. The stinker dragged the pillows out and got them all dirty while i was getting my camera, so i just left them there for him to play on since they were already dirty. He loves snuggly blankets and pillows!

 Connor has this little "bike" he got from his Grandma Anderson's boyfriend, and he loves it! Just this week he has started riding it around everywhere. he takes it through the whole house, watches movies on it, and rams it into walls while he laughs his head off. i couldn't resist talking some pictures of him having fun on it :)

don't you love his "why the heck are you taking pictures of me, mom" face???

 I wanted to attempt to take pictures of Connor holding U/S pictures of our little #2, but hahaha.... you can guess how that went. :)

 I think i managed to get some decent ones, even though they are definitely not pro quality. They show off his cuteness! Then he realized it was almost nap time and let me know he was done cooperating!

 Then he climbed around and tried to play for a little bit. But when it's nap time, it's really nap time. :) We are in the process of moving nap time up a bit, so that we can move bedtime up a bit. Now that he goes to sleep on his own when he's put in his crib, and sleeps all night, it's a bit easier to make those adjustments.

That's all i have to offer for now :) but i will say that we had a doctor's appointment on Wednesday and baby is looking great! We are 14 1/2 weeks, and the heart-rate was about 140. It was waving its arms around and moving a lot. We were laughing because Connor always had his hands covering his face even when he was kicking and squirming. We are enjoying seeing the little personality of this one already! :) We have our big ultra sound set for the end of November, and will find out the gender then. We are very happy everything is going well!
