So...there may be hope yet

On Saturday, Eric and I took Connor to a big brother class at the hospital. They taught him how to hold the baby (aka ~ teddy bear) and how to hold the baby. Connor got to tour the hospital to see the labor and delivery room and the nursery. Whenever they needed a "model" to show the other kids how to do something, he was the first to volunteer. I will say he didn't wrestle, throw, hit... the baby one time. :) That afternoon we went to a birthday party at My Gym for two girls in his class. I really believe that Connor can have fun anywhere. I love, LOVE his personality (and even the hyperactivity).
Update.... Connor passed all parts of his hearing test last week and we have even cut back his breathing treatments to once a day!!! I guess the doctors do know what they are talking about. YEA

Happy Valentine's Day

Can I just say I love this age! Even though Connor is wild and crazy, he already has the biggest heart. About 2 weeks ago, we were at Target-Time and Connor picked our his Valentine's Day cards for his friends (Cars of course). Ever since then he has been so ready for V-Day. Last week they made crafts at school and he was so excited to tell us all about it. As we were filling out the cards he made sure to say "Don't forget Grant." "Don't forget Rachel."...... and this went on and on. Eric and I both got to go to Connor's Valentine's Day party at school and fun was had by all. They each have their own assigned spots that they sit in. Each kid got to pass out their goodies. Everytime someone brought one to Connor he would say Thank You, (fill in name). Eric and I were both impressed. On Saturday morning as Connor was opening his gifts he ran up to both of us and told us "Thank you for my Valentine's Day gifts. I love you!" with a big kiss to finish it off. WOW!!! We all made dinner together and heart shaped cupcakes. This has got to be the best yet!!!
WE LOVE YOU CONNOR!!! Happy Valentine's Day!
