Update...Finally

Well, since I'm horrible about knowing how to use the blogger format, I guess pictures will be first today....




Well it's about time to update this thing. The last time I did it was right after Connor was born, 9 months ago....whoopsie! So I'll just make a list of things of interest that is currently going on in our family.
  • We got Toledo Zoo passes, and Connor LOVES the animals so we go as often as we can
  • Danny is still working at Carrabba's, and hangs out with us during the day
  • We love going to the pool, our favorite is toddler time at the local pool, where on tue, thurs and sat they have an hour where only kids 0-4 are allowed to swim. And it only costs a DOLLAR
  • I have gotten into couponing. It has become and addiction which is good for the most part. It takes a lot of time, but I try to stay on top of it. I have gotten a lot of free stuff, so that is neat. Recently I MADE $13 from shopping at Staples....that was easy. lol
  • Connor is crawling, and he is super speedy
  • Connor loves to eat grapes, nectarines, oatmeal, gerber puffs, and loves to drink water and juice from his toy story tummy ticklers--if you don't have one, get one.
  • Everytime Connor hears music he starts to dance, it's the cutest thing ever
  • Connor has a stink face, he can wave, he chases Kuzco around the house, he pulls himself up onto everything, and he loves to get into everything
  • Connor has six teeth, he loves to bite me...and it really hurts. He actually bit my butt the other day and he also likes to try to eat my nose when I'm lying down.
  • We shaved Kuzco so he looks like a really skinny pathetic lion
  • Connor is severely allergic to milk, and mildly allergic to peanuts. We now carry an Epi pen with us everywhere we go. It's scary because of how truly allergic he is to milk, Danny kissed him on the cheek the other day after eating doritos and he got hives. I also gave him pears that were manufactured in a place that processes milk and he had a reaction. It totally stinks, but atleast we know what's going on with this kiddo
  • I haven't had anything milk related for a few months now because I am still breastfeeding Connor and it totally sucks. I can't wait to eat chocolate, donuts, cheese, and many other things. I will probably gain ten pounds once I am done breastfeeding Connor
  • Danny made Sargeant in the Marine Corp which is totally awesome!!! I am so proud of my studdly husband
  • Danny is now a cub scout leader, but he was bummed when he found out that they don't go out on campouts
  • I am now on the enrichment commitee, Super Saturday is going to rock your socks this year
  • Danny is scheduled to go to Aghanistan next September, so that is craziness
  • Danny is still in the sniper platoon, and is in the top three to go to sniper school so we are crossing our fingers that he gets to go soon
  • Danny has lost over 30 pounds, so he is sexier than eve
  • Danny is turning 30 in a few days, he is so old!
  • Danny will be graduating from Eastern Michigan University in April, wahoo!
  • We took our first family pictures, our friend Ashley was a photographer and she did an amazing job
  • We have had multiple tornado warning's this summer. It totally freaks me out and Danny always makes fun of me because I always go down into the basement
  • Connor is the cutest baby ever, seriously, and he has the best temprament. He loves watching and interacting with people

Well, I think that is enough for now. I will try to get better at this blogging thing. My apologies for the current horrible format and lack of past posts.
