This is what I have so far:

• A blingy tablecloth cover
• I made some of those tissue paper pom poms.  They are a cheap and cute way to decorate.  Some of the ones I made look better than others 😛
• I am going to do a small candy buffet.  I’ve always loved these, but have never done one.  I don’t know where a good place is to buy candy to put in them?  The colors are orange, green, blue, and brown.

I found these “Connor” balloons and confetti at Party City and thought that was so cute!  I also found these cute birthday labels I think I am going to use for the candy jars. I’m not using the pink ones though!

One milestone will be my 30th birthday, this scares me…it scares me bad!  BUT– won’t be celebrating alone because Ter-bear will celebrate his big 3-0 two weeks before me 😛

Here is Sicky McSickface yesterday.  In order to keep him entertained he has a ball of tin foil and a bottle cap…he wants nothing to do with his toys that are scattered all over the living room!  It’s the little things people…it’s the little things….

I love you my baby boo…today you are feeling a bit better, but you can still tell you are not 100% in your eyes.  This is the first time you’ve been sick, so Mommy is not taking it so well!

On New Year’s Eve Terence and I got to go on a date to dinner and the movies.  Aunt Loyce watched baby C and we had a great time getting out just the two of us!  Thank you A. Loyce!!! *shout out*

Before the movie we had dinner at Red Robin.  I love their garden burgers and we ordered this massive glacier on a plate.  It was d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s!

Saturday Amber and I went shopping around for crafts and went to Party City.  Her son is celebrating his 2nd birthday in a couple weeks and Connor’s is less than two months away so I’ve started planning a bit.  I’m doing a “Look Whooo’s turning 1” theme.  With OWLS of course!  Would you expect anything else???

Another milestone T and I will celebrate this year is 10 years of marriage!  I love you babe – you are my heart, my best friend, my soul mate, and I thank God every day he brought you into my life!  You are the best husband and Daddy anyone could ask for and I LOVE YOU!  Can’t wait to celebrate with you this year!

Connor has been running almost a 104 degree temp today and yesterday….I just gave him another bath so hopefully that will help.  Poor baby is miserable and has been crying his head off today.  Momma needs a break!  I stayed home with him from work because the doctor said he was contagious until his temp went down, so hopefully we can get it down because I don’t know if I can take this much longer 🙁

Summer and Adam –

My heart is breaking for you once more.  I don’t understand why things happen the way they do….all I know is God is in control.  We may not see the ultimate plan he has for our lives right now, but I know in the end things will be just as they should be.  Loving you, praying for you, and hurting with you…..

Love, Becky

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 

Proverbs 3:5

It is such a joy to watch you learn and grow each day.  Right now you are getting into everything!  You love anything with lights and sound and you seem to get bored easily so we constantly entertain you.  You are a very curious little boy 🙂

Connor, you FINALLY got your first tooth in a couple weeks ago and have been eating new foods and chewing like a big boy ever since.  Feeding has become a lot easier and you seem to enjoy your food more.  Your favorites are cinnamon apples, bananas, spinach, and peas.

 

You don’t really watch much TV….I don’t think you have the attention span for it.  We’ve tried to sit you down a few times in front of a show and you get bored!  You are a mover and a shaker and would rather be playing with your toys 🙂

 

 Connor, you are our little cuddle bug.  One of our favorite things is when you wake up each morning and come lay with us in our bed.  We feed you your bottle and you like to play with Mommy and Daddy.  You love to clap your hands and can wave hi and bye bye.  You still say “Da Da” a lot and have started with B’s, but still no “Ma Ma”……

I met up with Amber the other night at Red Lobster.  Amber brought me GODIVA! Holla!!!  She’s so sweet and we are quickly becoming great friends….I have so much fun with her.  Amber drags me out of the house even when I don’t feel like it and we always have a great time!  We are hanging out tomorrow and crafting….what are we crafting you ask?  I have no clue, but I DO know we shall have a good time and we probably will have Starbucks…wink…wink…

Connor boy and his mini Starbucks cup….he’s a feller after my own heart and it was the perfect size too!

I have a few more photos from Christmas to share.  When Connor and I got back from Arkansas we celebrated with Terence’s family Texas style.  Christmas morning Connor let us sleep in until 8:30, Terence and I woke up in shock because we thought something was wrong…but he was snug as a bug in his bed! BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT FROM CONNOR!  Thanks for letting Mommy & Daddy sleep! 

Eating all of Mom’s good cooking.  I love the brunch she cooks every year on Christmas morning it is definitely something I look forward to every year!  She makes egg souffle, strawberry bread, muffins, and curried fruit…delish!

Connor boy has been playing with all his new toys and running himself ragged…he’s definitely growing before our eyes.  He has been such a blessing this year.  Thank you Jesus for this baby!!!
