Signs of Summer

We spent a warm afternoon of sunshine after what seemed like weeks of rain by playing outside with sunglasses and sidewalk chalk. Enjoy our photo shoot!!

Have a great week!

We have a little spring fever around here. Even though Chicago is having a great postseason in both basketball and hockey, we are ready for the warmer summer season that is associated with baseball. It has been raining here like cats and dogs lately, but we try to get outside whenever the sun pops out. Last week, Daddy bought Conor a new "bay-ball gub" as he pronounces it. He proudly wears it around the house even though it's about 5 times as big as his hand. He loves to throw the ball and we are still getting him to decide between "Go Twins" (much easier so say so I think I have an advantage) and "Go White Sox"!

One afternoon, when he was supposed to be taking a nap, I heard him talking and playing and after some silence, I heard a rustling sound. Sure he was up to no good, I peeked in on him to find he had reached into the box of diapers on the floor next to his crib and pulled out nearly every one to make a pile next to him. He thought it was so fun!! He never did take a nap that day!



He is very much into his imitating phase. Yesterday, he wanted to wear Mommy's shoes. I think they kind of look like scuba flippers on him.


Well, he's fussing again while he's supposed to be taking his nap (he's been in there for over an hour)...better go get him. Any ideas for getting him to nap?...let me know....
