Little Nibbles #4

1. Connor calls stars "twinkle". He has a hard time saying "st" so I guess twinkle is just easier.

2. Kate will NOT let me rock her to sleep. If I try, it's like holding a angry bobcat - with arms, legs swinging everywhere. Of course, if Ross holds her tightly in his arms she falls right to sleep.

3. I have to ask Kate a question in order to get Connor to talk. It goes something like this...
Me: "Connor - what's my name"
Connor: ....silence. 
Me: "Kate - what's my name"
Connor: MAMA!!!!!!!!!

4. Kate is obsessed with cats and spends countless hours chasing Elvis and Gracie around the house. It usually ends with her pulling out a chunk of their hair and laughing hysterically.

Birthday Lunch

Ross and my mom share the same birthday (Sept 2nd) and Beth's birthday is only a few days later (Sept. 7th) so we took all the birthday kiddos out for a celebratory lunch.

 Like his mama Connor can't sit still for too long.
He got a little squirmy during lunch and had to run around.

Look mom! I found a leaf! (Notice the alfredo lip liner)

The apple doesn't fall far...

What is it about kids and dishwashers?

Bebe's Visit

Ross, the kids and I have had a great time with Bebe. We started off spending 4 days in Beaver Creek, CO for Brian and Ana's wedding. As you know, Ross and I love Colorado - so it was exciting for us to share our favorite vacation place with Beth and the kids.  After that we headed back to San Antonio where Beth stayed busy redecorating Connor's room. Pictures to come.

  Here are some pictures from her visit.
