Brotherly Love

Once we let Connor hold his baby brother, he did not want to let go. It was the cutest thing.

Connor had a tight grip on him!!

He's Here!!

He came very quick and very unexpectantly!! We were having cake and ice cream at some friends' house and went home to put Connor to bed. Then our second little baby decided he wanted to surprise us and come early.

Evan and I were so tired. We were going to go to bed early that night!!

He weighed in at 7 lbs 1 oz and 19 1/2 inches long. He was born at 11:41. No later, because I didn't want Evan to have to share his birthday!

Party in LA

I surprised Evan with an early birthday gift by going down to LA for a Dodger game.

It was a lot of fun singing songs at the game and eating Dodger Dogs, but that night the Phillies were playing their best pitcher! Dodgers lost.

Connor's Graduation

I have been taking Connor to a exploration class every Friday to get out of the house so Evan can sleep better. He gets to go through little tunnels,learn how to blow bubbles, just run around and play!

For his graduation, they gave him a certificate while going down the slide.

Memorial Day Camping 2009

For the second year in a row the Smiths went camping with the Sagers. We loved it so much last year we couldn't resist another year.

Connor loved going in and out of the tents especially with Melanie's Head light.

Connor and Howie were perfect playmates camping. He loved pulling Howie around on his leash and in Connor's stroller.

Sleeping away!

Parenting

Daddy teaches Connor to put oven mitts on his hands.

So obviously Connor is our first kid and we make it up as we go along, but sometimes the things daddy teaches Connor are way better than what mommy teaches him.

Mommy teaches Connor to put a garbage bag on his head.
