We got busy with trips and then the holidays and then I just kind of forgot about writing until now. <div>It's hard to believe that Konnor is 2! At his 2 year check up the doctor told me that he had the vocabulary of a 3 year old which was nice to hear! Konnor talks all the time and some of the stuff he says is pretty funny! He is tall like Korey and already wearing 3T clothes. Although some 3T stuff is too long, all 2T stuff is too short!</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgs-uuAsSRkFie8IAXQbh48hGNVFAcGgjYsQpWJZsFCBxVCCXnQVhem2KAPK2mF3wFuPIcUXCjmOes-Lmr7W1HnhsvUT4kA3nHyf1ycUfU1bpYP-Y1a4ELBJQyW07uDnVVOt0aurnHisc0/s640/blogger-image--1178692518.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgs-uuAsSRkFie8IAXQbh48hGNVFAcGgjYsQpWJZsFCBxVCCXnQVhem2KAPK2mF3wFuPIcUXCjmOes-Lmr7W1HnhsvUT4kA3nHyf1ycUfU1bpYP-Y1a4ELBJQyW07uDnVVOt0aurnHisc0/s640/blogger-image--1178692518.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>Christmas was pretty fun. It was great to watch Konnor open all his presents this year and to see how excited he got over each one. Leading up to Christmas we did "The Twelve Books of Christmas" and he got to open one book each night for 12 nights before Christmas. He was excited each night. He loves books!</div><div>We all ended up with the stomach bug around Christmas which wasn't fun. I had it right before Christmas, Konnor got it Christmas night and Korey got it two days later. It was not fun!! </div><div>Nothing too exciting happened in January. We haven't gotten a ton of snow which makes me very happy, but I'm still looking forward to Spring and Summer! We signed Konnor up for another session of story time at the library. Anything to keep busy and entertained in the winter. </div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh76ntCt8vzNqWaVPEnOAtzrkHHhpVZpJYWbie1JoAiWDb_rwdoXonGPaS8S6-_ER7DWIfy1CMswh-rObIh_kQDiaHrbrZaPN319DT6ADixTybLyRap0tXna5FVxKKChwDvGO99eHtLTww/s640/blogger-image--1602276901.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh76ntCt8vzNqWaVPEnOAtzrkHHhpVZpJYWbie1JoAiWDb_rwdoXonGPaS8S6-_ER7DWIfy1CMswh-rObIh_kQDiaHrbrZaPN319DT6ADixTybLyRap0tXna5FVxKKChwDvGO99eHtLTww/s640/blogger-image--1602276901.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYqErOAz1Zwhjv4HsmWWGiiquxLzo4JyfWmwR9Sa1vilZ1RKkwc0nQB7zseZ07uWvNFYdr9yPUc-8Wj3g19EV3PtKz4JyjqeER1b6xMzhA11eKJUkC9RB3y2iTE7YPHgaBaEKb6qTeQh4/s640/blogger-image-987100324.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYqErOAz1Zwhjv4HsmWWGiiquxLzo4JyfWmwR9Sa1vilZ1RKkwc0nQB7zseZ07uWvNFYdr9yPUc-8Wj3g19EV3PtKz4JyjqeER1b6xMzhA11eKJUkC9RB3y2iTE7YPHgaBaEKb6qTeQh4/s640/blogger-image-987100324.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>Bedtime bedtime bedtime...ugh. We've always had our routine at bedtime and it worked well for awhile. And yes I was the bad mom who rocked my child to sleep while reading stories. Now he's in a big bed and we read stories in bed and turn off the lights and sit with him until he falls asleep. Some nights that can take awhile and it can get frustrating. But I never could do the cry it out stuff when he was younger and now I don't think I can let him cry while standing at his door trying to get out. So hopefully he will get quicker at putting himself to sleep eventually. He still wakes up at night a few times but he goes back to sleep pretty quick now that he's in the bigger bed. Unfortunately there have been a couple nights I was tired and I kayed down and fell asleep for hours too! Oops! Sleeping at night has always been our biggest struggle with Konnor. I know some kids are just not great sleepers and I know some day he will sleep through the night and everything will be fine! He does however sleep great for nap time and he takes amazing naps which helps! </div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9Go5FkVuyll8QLQyqDN30eQwHqUrjIzAiBkgj5zapFk_AE5Q07bBqaPB6zmPeBivDQ6qpcAGcoVeHfeuINNQO5CQTq8OvVvIyiZiqfJsjvLRRrWIxlpLVa_-XtFUI8AC-zdcvYfrxIco/s640/blogger-image--1402277825.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9Go5FkVuyll8QLQyqDN30eQwHqUrjIzAiBkgj5zapFk_AE5Q07bBqaPB6zmPeBivDQ6qpcAGcoVeHfeuINNQO5CQTq8OvVvIyiZiqfJsjvLRRrWIxlpLVa_-XtFUI8AC-zdcvYfrxIco/s640/blogger-image--1402277825.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2u31VVaznn_bQTVehU9-E3bbnAu6gDy25LfKTBRHQNv2sGuv7bFfiyDw-ufZlPUiUlBrZh6mQMvfCdzBmfQdzXJ9Ife-HtKYDqKOH2pCE5qWDUryOBZIJ135hdZ2qzZvryV7EKfz5zqk/s640/blogger-image--551506535.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2u31VVaznn_bQTVehU9-E3bbnAu6gDy25LfKTBRHQNv2sGuv7bFfiyDw-ufZlPUiUlBrZh6mQMvfCdzBmfQdzXJ9Ife-HtKYDqKOH2pCE5qWDUryOBZIJ135hdZ2qzZvryV7EKfz5zqk/s640/blogger-image--551506535.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>I guess that's all for now.

We are excited to get home to the pups, but sad to say goodbye to Mickey! We had a GREAT vacation. Konnor absolutely Loved Disney World. He had fun riding rides, seeing shows, meeting characters, hanging with family, eating lots of food, and anything else we did. <div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwnDtIGFE91enYYCo9eG6mu1X12xY3Ic_wKZY56L3FYVICYpv3Rg9S_4ejpeO-rl7TAxurlMMcmu5DaBZv0Dy3c3Uj2c07jNnRrCOO_d-l7a4aCdjhl27MzmZV91BAK3q_t1kLRS4b4Wc/s640/blogger-image-1627384491.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwnDtIGFE91enYYCo9eG6mu1X12xY3Ic_wKZY56L3FYVICYpv3Rg9S_4ejpeO-rl7TAxurlMMcmu5DaBZv0Dy3c3Uj2c07jNnRrCOO_d-l7a4aCdjhl27MzmZV91BAK3q_t1kLRS4b4Wc/s640/blogger-image-1627384491.jpg"></a></div><br><div>When I originally signed up for the half marathon and we decided to make a vacation out of it, I was definitely a little nervous about taking a 2 year old to Disney World. Now that we have done it though, I would go again in a heartbeat. I know Konnor will probably never remember this vacation but the amount of fun he had this past week was well worth it. Korey and I have both been to Disney World several times but seeing it all again through Konnor's eyes was just like being there for the first time again. Everything was the most amazing thing to him. He was excited from the beginning of the day when we got to ride the "train" (parking tram or monorail) to the end of the day when we watched Foreworks or a show!</div></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinP9f0ASz0SLcE617lfHz9jXXfi8pSEjxS8YEfujcUAsV5LQ3UtFftspkFZV6C5UO7qfCX8PeWQcHwpFDgbmTTOGX3wmb05kU8N6ZwtgkXxHDnR4LTM4eAbSCg7GbKje4SkMoi6DI8IVg/s640/blogger-image-464399156.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinP9f0ASz0SLcE617lfHz9jXXfi8pSEjxS8YEfujcUAsV5LQ3UtFftspkFZV6C5UO7qfCX8PeWQcHwpFDgbmTTOGX3wmb05kU8N6ZwtgkXxHDnR4LTM4eAbSCg7GbKje4SkMoi6DI8IVg/s640/blogger-image-464399156.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">We visited all four parks and went to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party (thank you Courtney). Konnors favorite ride was Dumbo! We rode it several times! He enjoyed pretty much any ride we took him on. He did so well being at the parks for long days and he took decent naps in his stroller and slept well at night.

His favorite show was "Mickey on the Mountain" (aka Fantasmic). He got to see that one with Grandma Kelso and Great Aunt Jean and he couldn't stop talking about "Mickey on the mountain". His favorite Disney snack was "popcorns" and his favorite character was probably a toss up between Mickey and Goofy. The characters were amazing. We met Goofy first and Konnor was a little unsure and he just sat down on the floor in front of Goofy. Goofy plopped down too and held out his hand and slowly slid forward until he was closer and Konnor started chatting with him. It was perfect. After that Konnor loved hugging all the characters we met!</div><div>I don't know If I could pick favorites for myself if I tried. I love Soarin, the new Mine Ride, and riding Dumbo with Konnor. My favorite show is the Wishes fireworks at the Magic Kingdom. Korey proposed during those fireworks and it's always nice to go back and be able to watch them with Konnor now too. My favorite character is Dug from Up. We saw him but didn't have time to wait in line. Maybe next time? We will definitely be going back. This trip was so much fun. I love vacations and can't wait to take Konnor back to Disney and to also take him so many other great places!</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwYgGO3_0s9uQ8u1Tw64oYQjbdiB5PJKq6jywyoP7zTBhL2TUls3tqRSTwG99ebmiLUXNpLK5tx-4iC4l-RcUI7JhrjrYxQ2CUU4yXE5LInjF5H3c-UQCvOGRRFZkZyocVLLMqlDr6cmI/s640/blogger-image--1407161107.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwYgGO3_0s9uQ8u1Tw64oYQjbdiB5PJKq6jywyoP7zTBhL2TUls3tqRSTwG99ebmiLUXNpLK5tx-4iC4l-RcUI7JhrjrYxQ2CUU4yXE5LInjF5H3c-UQCvOGRRFZkZyocVLLMqlDr6cmI/s640/blogger-image--1407161107.jpg"></a></div><br></div>Kristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05252850461880217224noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800836241300571856.post-45875704163764038832014-10-16T19:41:00.001-07:002014-10-16T19:46:24.574-07:0022 and 23 monthsOf course I'm behind! Not a big surprise I'm sure 😄. Konnor's language is still expanding and we love listening every day to see what he will say and do next. One of my favorites is when he goes over to the pantry, opens the door and says "hmmmm let's think" and then asks for some kind of snack. It's even better when he puts his hand on his hips or his finger to his lips as he "thinks". <div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpubDm84W__4DUczgnUiihWb3Ku_dKpLxF4n3oWADOdpWbJ4g-CK6OklmNSVS574nv6DB9xCoQ9GZ-FwzjwKK9QtDzKvAnSpyisiwGemmL1b7wNpSdcv-HrTMBWVlWtFk_wP6xFfL0tCM/s640/blogger-image-487149151.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpubDm84W__4DUczgnUiihWb3Ku_dKpLxF4n3oWADOdpWbJ4g-CK6OklmNSVS574nv6DB9xCoQ9GZ-FwzjwKK9QtDzKvAnSpyisiwGemmL1b7wNpSdcv-HrTMBWVlWtFk_wP6xFfL0tCM/s640/blogger-image-487149151.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp_kGeDpNzxVVX9GX-LSeDPkMM9P4fGFs3o2cn3qiaMWoJW5sdE0MXULEetD2mna4q38OI1HH65o0E9u3vCdvpGj8KINJbPdpZHrjG74cOxigZvXWvmBzKdzpqvMMJ7MT1rDW1Kb_Dc6M/s640/blogger-image-1115382089.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp_kGeDpNzxVVX9GX-LSeDPkMM9P4fGFs3o2cn3qiaMWoJW5sdE0MXULEetD2mna4q38OI1HH65o0E9u3vCdvpGj8KINJbPdpZHrjG74cOxigZvXWvmBzKdzpqvMMJ7MT1rDW1Kb_Dc6M/s640/blogger-image-1115382089.jpg"></a></div><div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-m8sT8WsdrFOx2qNtpyjQEWFXeI1h1HPh079ns3Y5MM3yDzsKkMtKI5G3v3MGt7fp37ozDquUdDfu6a-TaHtDiD9m8zVKQQm7vZQWqiy6QVz1Xmhkv7dlhTTYLrjEIvWEDbiqTO4IW8s/s640/blogger-image--94279273.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-m8sT8WsdrFOx2qNtpyjQEWFXeI1h1HPh079ns3Y5MM3yDzsKkMtKI5G3v3MGt7fp37ozDquUdDfu6a-TaHtDiD9m8zVKQQm7vZQWqiy6QVz1Xmhkv7dlhTTYLrjEIvWEDbiqTO4IW8s/s640/blogger-image--94279273.jpg"></a></div><br><div>He is still a fan of Mickey Mouse but he also likes watching Chuggington and sometimes Jake and the Neverland Pirates. We decided to let him be Jake the pirate for Halloween. If you ask Konnor what a pirate says he will tell you "ho ho ho" (might be a little confusing at Christmastime haha). It's also fun to have him say "ahoy matey" and "walk the plank".

When we stayed with our friends in Charleston they sang a prayer before meals and Konnor picked up on it and loved it, so we now sing the prayer before meals also. Along with singing he sometimes likes to dance too. He will hit the button on his piano that plays music and then come say "money dance" or "daddy dance". And no I did not type that wrong. I am still called "money" instead of "mommy" even though if you ask him to say "mommy" he is definitely able to. I'm okay with it though. It's cute and some day he will grow up and who knows what he will call me so I'll take being called "money" by our sweet little boy as long as he wants. </div></div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggSvzmZZicuu8Jsj9JFbbh2IHtqGnjCcASq9pmkmmtUP5AkXs7ug1OtVAP8MM2qGL2IIKgOEUX98i3huw9pxLMUcq4pzYw-Ka8eNVZ6ALBM7Z19l0vBRuIA6Kd98GCsxjgrYy7sQAZQBw/s640/blogger-image--1401087265.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggSvzmZZicuu8Jsj9JFbbh2IHtqGnjCcASq9pmkmmtUP5AkXs7ug1OtVAP8MM2qGL2IIKgOEUX98i3huw9pxLMUcq4pzYw-Ka8eNVZ6ALBM7Z19l0vBRuIA6Kd98GCsxjgrYy7sQAZQBw/s640/blogger-image--1401087265.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir4dC2yIJ1RBAmpEE3a53oAC7aXIaiLc3n7KtXhBz3068tpi8zqNyKH2ilp0XrsGXuPkCfh6_xzr5BMtBqmf9HYzdq78CZBTErZQgN19edli-oz28O-34hktzBq20zS8QraYWz_dSXvL0/s640/blogger-image--903618950.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir4dC2yIJ1RBAmpEE3a53oAC7aXIaiLc3n7KtXhBz3068tpi8zqNyKH2ilp0XrsGXuPkCfh6_xzr5BMtBqmf9HYzdq78CZBTErZQgN19edli-oz28O-34hktzBq20zS8QraYWz_dSXvL0/s640/blogger-image--903618950.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNdckSIllPk5U2KKyt4xOG9Uzt0SRGLxe5_EN-waG5Ka9OPLRKWaE36mSst7WNOfvDUAIOTppkCcb7mOElMZb4fh_am9yE5FJY1vTYf956-cYwu5En5O06U346L2Noh2Q4WgptqQwLREI/s640/blogger-image--1037616611.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNdckSIllPk5U2KKyt4xOG9Uzt0SRGLxe5_EN-waG5Ka9OPLRKWaE36mSst7WNOfvDUAIOTppkCcb7mOElMZb4fh_am9yE5FJY1vTYf956-cYwu5En5O06U346L2Noh2Q4WgptqQwLREI/s640/blogger-image--1037616611.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>Konnor also still loves books. We read before nap time and bedtime and any other time he asks.

Our first trip was up to Maine! Korey competed in the Pumpkinman Sprint Triathlon there and did a great job! Konnor had fun cheering for his daddy "run daddy" and he enjoyed rearranging the pumpkins they had set up. We also got to spend some time with all our great friends up there. We miss all of them and we appreciate that every time we go up to visit they go out of there way to make sure they get to see us and spend time with us! The only bad thing about this trip was that it was too short! <div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXiQ30SynIdy_pGmwkdFxClhxYImKClsnwCnJgLy3lQ3V5kl7jz0lv9upef_WEI4YS8akwyTIZJGZzye7uBNT1S0bDJZe_FflXiaTNQ8jwWYgUeKyg-RTyTp4NnQ6hgjup-q1Mu7s3xiY/s640/blogger-image-92481178.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXiQ30SynIdy_pGmwkdFxClhxYImKClsnwCnJgLy3lQ3V5kl7jz0lv9upef_WEI4YS8akwyTIZJGZzye7uBNT1S0bDJZe_FflXiaTNQ8jwWYgUeKyg-RTyTp4NnQ6hgjup-q1Mu7s3xiY/s640/blogger-image-92481178.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3zZjvXjULLrqgEXTlSZiGybWnF6xweSFkvfdbwME2w4r9CWrDWRYvnTVOQjybI3jqVgX0v5wYkUY1a1zge37oEDfEznduy2-_MY8Z2YEMBe38MPz1wsG5Wua4YHZc56YNdC9sM4Zszik/s640/blogger-image--1731530119.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3zZjvXjULLrqgEXTlSZiGybWnF6xweSFkvfdbwME2w4r9CWrDWRYvnTVOQjybI3jqVgX0v5wYkUY1a1zge37oEDfEznduy2-_MY8Z2YEMBe38MPz1wsG5Wua4YHZc56YNdC9sM4Zszik/s640/blogger-image--1731530119.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHd93TO5FAt5XcGkhp2d1WeQ2FO-Jkys9aqVX4Omene4oDP_y-a6TdAhF4T2q0NP5MbnaC0eadV5f5FIzJVXvox0kTGFg_1wu309WJpHvzjvVSjqYCuCVqUf1F2AhXYaAeGqaeJx_HFpw/s640/blogger-image-408228143.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHd93TO5FAt5XcGkhp2d1WeQ2FO-Jkys9aqVX4Omene4oDP_y-a6TdAhF4T2q0NP5MbnaC0eadV5f5FIzJVXvox0kTGFg_1wu309WJpHvzjvVSjqYCuCVqUf1F2AhXYaAeGqaeJx_HFpw/s640/blogger-image-408228143.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH20ICOBFKkFNNPDnl711esmI6hVREtou_j9dksUrtQrUHBUJm6NyKjNyG21c9_Q0MosPVLBjAq44tm3z86Y0h5qXfq0GTudjXA-GHpvU8WocjVZXCgRfTog4YoyNUm0rNQNIXSU8G9NY/s640/blogger-image-1253789433.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH20ICOBFKkFNNPDnl711esmI6hVREtou_j9dksUrtQrUHBUJm6NyKjNyG21c9_Q0MosPVLBjAq44tm3z86Y0h5qXfq0GTudjXA-GHpvU8WocjVZXCgRfTog4YoyNUm0rNQNIXSU8G9NY/s640/blogger-image-1253789433.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg7CAHFYeBFXRK70w6TWem1WDG44y0KDibbXnr6MfeuowOzEi3mynUmd3_Zmm_JR5AFFIfeNYsZpKlNHN-xDAjUzQAfciucUQhOnHZ2Wd-jPihyphenhyphenmQkvoAWoLFF_4mtbCVbzmRV9KEz7tg/s640/blogger-image--24394905.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg7CAHFYeBFXRK70w6TWem1WDG44y0KDibbXnr6MfeuowOzEi3mynUmd3_Zmm_JR5AFFIfeNYsZpKlNHN-xDAjUzQAfciucUQhOnHZ2Wd-jPihyphenhyphenmQkvoAWoLFF_4mtbCVbzmRV9KEz7tg/s640/blogger-image--24394905.jpg"></a></div><br></div><br></div>Our second trip was to Charleston. Anyone who knows me, knows that Charleston is my favorite place we have lived. It was wonderful to go back there for a week. We went back for our friends wedding and decided to make a week trip out of it. Korey and Konnor were both in the wedding. Konnor did his job of walking down the aisle much better than I thought he would :). The wedding was beautiful and we had a wonderful time hanging out and talking with all our friends after the wedding. The rest of the week we tried to squeeze in all the stuff we wanted to do. We went shopping, walked around downtown, went to the beach, ate at some of our favorite restaurants, went to the aquarium and spent as much time as we could with our friends. Visiting Charleston again just made me realize even more how much I want to move back there and how much I really do not love the area we live in. Hopefully some day we can make it happen!</div><div>I must say that after both trips I'm pretty confident saying that Konnor is definitely a beach lover. It makes me so happy! He doesn't mind sunscreen and he loves chasing birds and running into the ocean! I think it means we are meant to live by the ocean!!</div><div>Going back to both Maine and Charleston also makes me realize how many truly wonderful friends we have made in all the places we have lived. We always have someone to stay with when we visit both places and we always have lots of people to see and spend time with. We are fortunate to have so many friends from all over!</div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5AkrB8kNTe28XPrvoH_xBAZBWeKJKdF3mmB0RkPgXXbexWbL36ewhBALaLFD6tgpWCdOlZEFepw1fuVEjYPytT8YAzfGl8KwnBxnn_IVEm6Ie1zj7YgqfjBVkJWALKeDmBxtzVfNSxMg/s640/blogger-image--1843143030.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5AkrB8kNTe28XPrvoH_xBAZBWeKJKdF3mmB0RkPgXXbexWbL36ewhBALaLFD6tgpWCdOlZEFepw1fuVEjYPytT8YAzfGl8KwnBxnn_IVEm6Ie1zj7YgqfjBVkJWALKeDmBxtzVfNSxMg/s640/blogger-image--1843143030.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTyobcJlbrW-18rLAKx1n_EtBqpdsidhIQ_Km9UWhEMbql_WGdJrtd7njRPJZvSaDl1eGwczXx_vAue-3jE-t2wA94vgOkZbhW3OPJ_ClUyWt1mAY26wPDyY9dJXT80HN5q8OiXgNl9Nk/s640/blogger-image-1174060690.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTyobcJlbrW-18rLAKx1n_EtBqpdsidhIQ_Km9UWhEMbql_WGdJrtd7njRPJZvSaDl1eGwczXx_vAue-3jE-t2wA94vgOkZbhW3OPJ_ClUyWt1mAY26wPDyY9dJXT80HN5q8OiXgNl9Nk/s640/blogger-image-1174060690.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUjueDVFwfw_Fgrsj_pJVc1o38H8qhOAuz_dl-JM6-ZKXW1kt16y2758rLTASJWTsR5sSIhMerrxWFqMb_8XSrSSmDT9FpuGHFUr7-uaNWZ_iARQJ4ewYjmBh_4VjGyM0BovMyZeNg0mA/s640/blogger-image--2006952486.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUjueDVFwfw_Fgrsj_pJVc1o38H8qhOAuz_dl-JM6-ZKXW1kt16y2758rLTASJWTsR5sSIhMerrxWFqMb_8XSrSSmDT9FpuGHFUr7-uaNWZ_iARQJ4ewYjmBh_4VjGyM0BovMyZeNg0mA/s640/blogger-image--2006952486.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPUUD-2_fl6PQliWcJW6Az4A7B81egKmdGY7Gfxf71sy7b78p9m2qRFw9yKsadEtphdPn7Lle6orBqMUfFF1HZQIm3wMZQP105oiA1Pw9fIcIT8EaHlqkt8wnTe5MnFckUudwAeCZUI8E/s640/blogger-image--2129702445.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPUUD-2_fl6PQliWcJW6Az4A7B81egKmdGY7Gfxf71sy7b78p9m2qRFw9yKsadEtphdPn7Lle6orBqMUfFF1HZQIm3wMZQP105oiA1Pw9fIcIT8EaHlqkt8wnTe5MnFckUudwAeCZUI8E/s640/blogger-image--2129702445.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMb_FL4GFefWSJPB7dZWJAlOxSTyqQJOoIbV74a4n0ACG4ksZGyYZ_0QEwbfgxZSSRi5fZwctKYaJZUkEf9PI3ig4xVX8HJ2jall3ZOANggNFEBr80s3zlZySSlA636rF74uPhPCQPwSo/s640/blogger-image--1974618559.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMb_FL4GFefWSJPB7dZWJAlOxSTyqQJOoIbV74a4n0ACG4ksZGyYZ_0QEwbfgxZSSRi5fZwctKYaJZUkEf9PI3ig4xVX8HJ2jall3ZOANggNFEBr80s3zlZySSlA636rF74uPhPCQPwSo/s640/blogger-image--1974618559.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRQyd4Ek1jw2VTjT25UuMTruM1Xl_s0SORDpYdt0EJwQ_Kc2AkMA6N4QZv6EPAHiw3Nkfd2URYAbOYN8vFsURXSk4lSVrBR1RNVJAx5LQDLYy7OiX3wwHXtpVyeQr-DN0jP2Qlbq42QDs/s640/blogger-image-915142825.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRQyd4Ek1jw2VTjT25UuMTruM1Xl_s0SORDpYdt0EJwQ_Kc2AkMA6N4QZv6EPAHiw3Nkfd2URYAbOYN8vFsURXSk4lSVrBR1RNVJAx5LQDLYy7OiX3wwHXtpVyeQr-DN0jP2Qlbq42QDs/s640/blogger-image-915142825.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq5nYhAqFGyqASBh7PI0JwG-MQKNhNPeYr9wpiDMX7owzSqf5C68r_w2NNrKkU4P6ATwVGwZtUbnXMNYiIYc-QB3lJCzpVYUDw_8Lmr0RBT6M6DvXsanicji_hPhDaNa5fFduMpiZx-aE/s640/blogger-image--898657842.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq5nYhAqFGyqASBh7PI0JwG-MQKNhNPeYr9wpiDMX7owzSqf5C68r_w2NNrKkU4P6ATwVGwZtUbnXMNYiIYc-QB3lJCzpVYUDw_8Lmr0RBT6M6DvXsanicji_hPhDaNa5fFduMpiZx-aE/s640/blogger-image--898657842.jpg"></a></div><br></div>One more vacation to go in November!

Even after I grew up I still loved Summer. When I worked in schools I had the summers off and when I worked at daycares summers usually meant less kids because some parents were teachers or people were always out on vacations. When Korey was in the Navy summers were also great because we always lived near a beach. Maybe my love for Summer dwindled a little this year because we are now at least two hours from the beach, Konnor can't really be outside too long when it's really hot out, we still haven't met many people around where we live, and we didn't go on any vacations during the Summer. </div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIV77TIMAaU2qb2SmiYOIQR8wyBTCjGmUeqCN9wL9zV5HrbGfTu00UJPeKhuP9whaCINjZC-ke7LzFg6E4Y8ASzea3ILir-iQ_8KCRDNPU176xS9FXPpByZEs2Z4rbwgIsGfX3i7ajjaU/s640/blogger-image--729175239.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIV77TIMAaU2qb2SmiYOIQR8wyBTCjGmUeqCN9wL9zV5HrbGfTu00UJPeKhuP9whaCINjZC-ke7LzFg6E4Y8ASzea3ILir-iQ_8KCRDNPU176xS9FXPpByZEs2Z4rbwgIsGfX3i7ajjaU/s640/blogger-image--729175239.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSdEXC_NsIrV1L6SAH7zkbVXG0d2BrSZIgwOhHPlC8tHrQBegoDuabpmEMudl7SBTsp1-pdGMcBvWpaZ5Uw5m_icVn8oqVvnkciF6p7WoLoU7Q9x1aoHwrffs0yoTv62B0NFbusuS7ewk/s640/blogger-image-1040158729.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSdEXC_NsIrV1L6SAH7zkbVXG0d2BrSZIgwOhHPlC8tHrQBegoDuabpmEMudl7SBTsp1-pdGMcBvWpaZ5Uw5m_icVn8oqVvnkciF6p7WoLoU7Q9x1aoHwrffs0yoTv62B0NFbusuS7ewk/s640/blogger-image-1040158729.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1ZRTgOFRMkdUbXHUSfmdek9rfYkRD4Drnaa9gsv01xJPJ3B5Bcv9YRA3aLbC0RH8BVGiznwtUDVANHGukG6LAFQ931H5iIkNgz-cKRht8smXplFAVoEWt3e2QruLAaj4P529TnE81ME8/s640/blogger-image-732721889.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1ZRTgOFRMkdUbXHUSfmdek9rfYkRD4Drnaa9gsv01xJPJ3B5Bcv9YRA3aLbC0RH8BVGiznwtUDVANHGukG6LAFQ931H5iIkNgz-cKRht8smXplFAVoEWt3e2QruLAaj4P529TnE81ME8/s640/blogger-image-732721889.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>Whatever the reason is, it's at least nice to know that I am really looking forward to the Fall for once.

I didn't necessarily dislike school but I never loved getting up early and I never wanted summer and all the fun to end! This year though I'm excited to decorate for Fall, have pumpkin spice lattes, wear sweaters, take Konnor trick or treating, go on our vacations, watch football, go apple picking and all the other great things that happen in the Fall!</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbrV09xtRO7jJLlt_DUoT6QFVkbQWu7-HXonWdIAa5XIyharrgjM38YTe7UUwUoAyEQfBqybk7VM7s2EekZ22HMy1fqfv1QgICx0DrtaNxvY88jgITWyZjLV29vjEn6-UCIy33Baxi9oc/s640/blogger-image--1104573082.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

We got to stay at both grandparents and see some friends! Korey joined us on the weekend. In the past when we travel we have always used the pack 'n play for Konnor to sleep in. The last time we used it he woke up frequently and ended up sleeping with us, so I knew the time was coming where we would no longer be able to use it as our travel bed. I brought it with me hoping miraculously it would work and he would sleep great in it again but it did not work and he slept terrible!!! The first night he woke up about 15 minutes after I put him in it. I let him sleep with me after that and he slept great for a couple hours while I slept crappy as he tossed and turned and used me as a pillow and also kicked me several times. After being kicked one too many times I attempted putting him in the pack 'n play again but he immediately woke up. Thankfully though he pretty much fell asleep again with me and didn't move much til morning. <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOkU2VWU7xp9B0wh5rSdHcEg7OipY_QRLCs-SOaeXcO-Pj2aVPardG8HUi34hwKanoiY9cNYFVIeNZTxmgXv-c_s7IYj0-bXxcaNVsHbQfzPMI-nHhVXWPYq-BhjDGPY7w3Burago980k/s640/blogger-image--1896786455.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOkU2VWU7xp9B0wh5rSdHcEg7OipY_QRLCs-SOaeXcO-Pj2aVPardG8HUi34hwKanoiY9cNYFVIeNZTxmgXv-c_s7IYj0-bXxcaNVsHbQfzPMI-nHhVXWPYq-BhjDGPY7w3Burago980k/s640/blogger-image--1896786455.jpg"></a></div><div>I wasn't sure what to use as a bed for him for the rest of the week. There wasn't an extra bed for him, he moves around too much to share the bed with anyone, and the idea of an air mattress scared me a little because I didn't know what he would do with the freedom of not being contained in something when he woke up. Without many options to choose from, I went with the air mattress. </div><div>The first night went pretty well. He only woke up once and I heard him and got him back to sleep and he slept until the morning when I heard him again and got him before he wandered off. The second night he slept through the night which was wonderful. What wasn't wonderful though was me waking up to him crying at the bottom of the first set of stairs (he went feet first on his belly down only 4 stairs so he was okay but he scared himself). I have no idea how I did not hear him wake up and leave the room but somehow he managed to sneak out. The next night I of course blocked the door, but I also woke up any time he moved at all!!</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU4xsmk1Dq3mdaezvC_HjAGm7OU7lMEw62VitBo0ut5PQH2wM-q27FBYISkWU3FrI5eKzGLo2c5xCuWm_D6AyqVniZz4qmX40EKbjFjME5M4PLjK8U6krDRar9gTS6_HI4Ut2HDWBMpw0/s640/blogger-image-1522283882.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU4xsmk1Dq3mdaezvC_HjAGm7OU7lMEw62VitBo0ut5PQH2wM-q27FBYISkWU3FrI5eKzGLo2c5xCuWm_D6AyqVniZz4qmX40EKbjFjME5M4PLjK8U6krDRar9gTS6_HI4Ut2HDWBMpw0/s640/blogger-image-1522283882.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>When we moved to the other grandparents house he had problems staying on the air mattress for some reason. Same air mattress as before but all of a sudden he kept rolling off it. He never woke up when this happened but one night I woke up 3 different times to find him sleeping on the floor. </div><div>I don't know if the air mattress is the perfect solution but for now it's what we are going with. We have a lot of traveling coming up in the next few months so hopefully we get a little better at sleeping on the air mattress or we will just be exhausted during our vacations :) </div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaQMDDUXI0YK7MR2Kd_1ychCi5EMggUTZjuHNbZqQQ6d5qzTB68HgFP9Oj9wVhaZkswSBxtt5VXHN_cqwjnIbUk5TDdFjnDT7MAxf95daThizE4q_mA8iB6XYgfVpsMGF8uRqKXExkGsQ/s640/blogger-image-770292969.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaQMDDUXI0YK7MR2Kd_1ychCi5EMggUTZjuHNbZqQQ6d5qzTB68HgFP9Oj9wVhaZkswSBxtt5VXHN_cqwjnIbUk5TDdFjnDT7MAxf95daThizE4q_mA8iB6XYgfVpsMGF8uRqKXExkGsQ/s640/blogger-image-770292969.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><br></div><br></div>Kristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05252850461880217224noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800836241300571856.post-58975902519754356172014-07-24T07:08:00.001-07:002014-07-24T07:12:13.949-07:0020 months<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div>Even though by now we are half way to 21 months, I figured I would still do a 20 month post! <div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1nFOrPHKhxO9zos6zzN0YCqtsaAVUQhR64ekENl6z-KvQQNrgpH0CTMpDiZDFwYjHQuWSlmRn0e_ugJkTbACV-sxDPSrjwzVYapLI5hgWycaYlWEA4mv526RR8i0lgcOs2mVyI3lywgI/s640/blogger-image-746734940.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1nFOrPHKhxO9zos6zzN0YCqtsaAVUQhR64ekENl6z-KvQQNrgpH0CTMpDiZDFwYjHQuWSlmRn0e_ugJkTbACV-sxDPSrjwzVYapLI5hgWycaYlWEA4mv526RR8i0lgcOs2mVyI3lywgI/s640/blogger-image-746734940.jpg"></a></div><br><div>For a couple weeks in a row Konnor slept through the night and it was glorious. I could not have been happier. Before that stretch it had been FOREVER since he consistently slept through the night. I enjoyed every minute of my unbroken sleep. Then the 2 year molars decided to show up. Like all the teeth that have come before them I'm sure they will take their good sweet time making their appearance. He has been back to waking up most nights and staying awake anywhere from 1-3 hours. He still occasionally sleeps through the night but those nights are once again rare. Tonight we have been up for 2 hours already and I do not see sleep happening any time soon. </div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWK-S58HkMetZjWeldhZZs9c4CLKa3hBGFu48Zf_yRGO9i5sMOvOn0bMdd_llORPRJZ3FIaqHO7A9ReC5CuivdFiqdNCdzZbZ_pXqZ7Q2JbepBSDwMxF8FSDiKN69PMhwSbqD9doZjDk8/s640/blogger-image--1018514307.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWK-S58HkMetZjWeldhZZs9c4CLKa3hBGFu48Zf_yRGO9i5sMOvOn0bMdd_llORPRJZ3FIaqHO7A9ReC5CuivdFiqdNCdzZbZ_pXqZ7Q2JbepBSDwMxF8FSDiKN69PMhwSbqD9doZjDk8/s640/blogger-image--1018514307.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>Konnor's vocabulary is still growing every single day. He likes to repeat what we say now which can be very funny and also means we have to be more careful about what we say. I love when we say "hey buddy" to him and he echoes back "hey buddy". Some days he surprises us and says words we didn't even know he knew. Like the day he saw a violin on tv and said "viowin". </div><div>We still try not to watch a ton of tv. Well I should rephrase that and say we try not to let Konnor watch a ton. I on the other hand watch too much tv I'm sure. He really only pays attention to a few shows. He's slowly expanding. At first he only watched yo gabba gabba. Then he moved on to Little Einsteins (I'm positive we have every episode on the dvr) He still likes Little Einsteins but his new favorite is Micky Mouse Clubhouse. He now also calls "hey Toodles" throughout the day (you'd have to watch the show to understand) and we occasionally catch him singing "diggity dog" (also from the show). </div><div>He is still a busy busy boy and always wants to be on the go. <span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Most days I end up chasing him around the house at least 20 times. Thank goodness Chloe also likes to chase him around the house when he has her ball.

This year we decided to stay home for the 4th. Korey had Friday off so we enjoyed a nice long weekend together. Friday was pretty much a lazy day. We didn't really get to sleep in thanks to Konnor but we stretched out the morning a little longer by all watching a Mickey Mouse episode in bed. Then we pretty much hung out at the house playing with Konnor and just relaxing. I'm pretty sure Korey mowed the grass or changed my cars oil or did some chore at some point because he doesn't have the ability to just be lazy all day :)<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgstFvhGPZdqvd0dUZHwxirPwhHwtd32FBUqwn0hPZw_3h369jIvX3zWJABS1Vs2yx9BHb6Hfm4H_4_ZZaKHYaDG9vHV749FLP6Vf70BrBbyBc53bH9FX9ST6XKnQzUV1yBD6DU7MB9RcE/s640/blogger-image-1960969968.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgstFvhGPZdqvd0dUZHwxirPwhHwtd32FBUqwn0hPZw_3h369jIvX3zWJABS1Vs2yx9BHb6Hfm4H_4_ZZaKHYaDG9vHV749FLP6Vf70BrBbyBc53bH9FX9ST6XKnQzUV1yBD6DU7MB9RcE/s640/blogger-image-1960969968.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRhkTmDUzSHRH2JWBMTPSIOMxXYyfy57U10HuZtDVV4AldvYuQteKSFHWfySLY4sDT-glpvgZTn3MpT4SrsYft3OS4aawaA-atLcysX1K6TTbyiMlO8ixgeo0RmoJKB4eN-2AmiOIdAs0/s640/blogger-image--1132047387.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRhkTmDUzSHRH2JWBMTPSIOMxXYyfy57U10HuZtDVV4AldvYuQteKSFHWfySLY4sDT-glpvgZTn3MpT4SrsYft3OS4aawaA-atLcysX1K6TTbyiMlO8ixgeo0RmoJKB4eN-2AmiOIdAs0/s640/blogger-image--1132047387.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div>Friday night we planned to make a fire in the backyard and have s'mores after Konnor went to sleep.

We however have planned all our trips for the Fall so right now I can't help being a little jealous of all the fun vacation pictures I see on Facebook.

Seeing all the baby pictures definitely makes me think more about having another one. But then there are nights like tonight where it is now midnight and Konnor has been awake for an hour already with no signs of going back to sleep anytime soon and I think I'm crazy for ever even thinking about having another child. I would never sleep!!! Konnor finally slept through the night for 8 days straight. It was a miracle. Then he got a cold and has been waking up again for the past two nights. I knew it was too good to be true! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Anyway...even if I am a little jealous of all the vacations and I get a little baby crazy now and then, I still enjoy all the pictures so keep them coming!!</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlk0LmjP4PQzuYGjJhC-ovoqFzqHYPyq4Wk7iHkD8vbjyKFsxgCNna_Ey9ew7jnvrTLTH4V4kBeUgVIYE4H0emr_EEm4wSsFbpUCWYTFybjYKe8F85LRASNvxV7hkbbzlWaV0v1cOgK70/s640/blogger-image-2043962702.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlk0LmjP4PQzuYGjJhC-ovoqFzqHYPyq4Wk7iHkD8vbjyKFsxgCNna_Ey9ew7jnvrTLTH4V4kBeUgVIYE4H0emr_EEm4wSsFbpUCWYTFybjYKe8F85LRASNvxV7hkbbzlWaV0v1cOgK70/s640/blogger-image-2043962702.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxteV5URYUFUKfcC-aacsu3JHx0O9fqU5eCTvdJHg17bvFZyom9AL4txK0pZmBVt84VAiMthrTERYuT7tQCRa5DdCCz2p2aI9txbxweRD7c9XwStPVXeJfiT-8SwWFLOM2UlpkemPlYTY/s640/blogger-image-1501434056.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxteV5URYUFUKfcC-aacsu3JHx0O9fqU5eCTvdJHg17bvFZyom9AL4txK0pZmBVt84VAiMthrTERYuT7tQCRa5DdCCz2p2aI9txbxweRD7c9XwStPVXeJfiT-8SwWFLOM2UlpkemPlYTY/s640/blogger-image-1501434056.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ULeM3ZEZtIobBb87BYBwcr42zbyPJFEHERNgOzixgh05eMGlF3dDgJgwyKLv1dDB88lV7tjTJutsrTri6pFX9JuEWxJgEojgggz3MCyAIpPQlw6JsmEftTOE2GPX4maEtsdWA9ePz64/s640/blogger-image--141417092.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ULeM3ZEZtIobBb87BYBwcr42zbyPJFEHERNgOzixgh05eMGlF3dDgJgwyKLv1dDB88lV7tjTJutsrTri6pFX9JuEWxJgEojgggz3MCyAIpPQlw6JsmEftTOE2GPX4maEtsdWA9ePz64/s640/blogger-image--141417092.jpg"></a></div><br></div><br></span></div>Kristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05252850461880217224noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800836241300571856.post-50938823074521177592014-06-25T09:10:00.001-07:002014-06-25T09:10:57.177-07:008 years<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"></span><br />

It's crazy that it's been 8 years already. It's even crazier that we've been together for 15 years!! I still remember the day he chased me down the hall in high school and asked me out. I feel very lucky that we found each other so early and that we've gotten to share so many experiences with each other already! </span></div>

We try and take every opportunity we have to go out together but we also enjoy hanging out at home together after Konnor's asleep just catching up on TV, movies, talking, and sometimes playing a game. </span><br />

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Having a child is WONDERFUL...but it can also be stressful. There are definitely those nights when Konnor wakes up and stays awake for hours where Korey and I in our sleep deprived state end up mad at each other over crazy stuff. Despite those times, we really enjoy being parents. I love seeing Konnor get excited when Korey gets home from work and how excited Korey gets every time Konnor says Daddy! I also appreciate how Korey never makes me feel anything less than an amazing mother. Even in moments when I feel like I'm failing miserably, he is always the one to tell me that I'm doing a good job. </span><br />

So far my goal of trying to write more is definitely not being achieved! :) Konnor keeps us pretty busy most days! He's always on the go and it's a rare moment if he actually sits down for more than 5 minutes. I purchased a coloring book for him the other day, and he will at least sit and color with me for 10-15 minutes which is nice (As you can see I also have been coloring haha)!</div>

He loves to talk and one day when I was curious I started writing down all the words he has said, and discovered he says over 100 different words! He's always trying to tell us something! We love hearing him talk. All day long I hear "where daddy go" "where bella go" "where chloe go" haha. <br />
The canine teeth are almost completely in (YAY!!) so he has been sleeping better. He still has nights where he wakes up and decides he's going to stay up for 2 hours, but they don't happen as often as they used to!<br />
He loves his shoes. He always wants to be wearing his shoes. He brings me his shoes every day and wants me to put them on. His one pair definitely smells awful because he wears them so much without socks. I must have told them they were stinky one too many times though, because now every time he brings them to me he smells them and says "stinky"!<br />

Last weekend Korey and I got the chance to go to NYC with my sister Courtney and her boyfriend Matt. We went to the 9/11 Memorial which was sad, but definitely worth visiting. Korey and I went to see Of Mice and Men and LOVED it! Chris O'Dowd was wonderful and of course we stuck around afterwards so I could get an autograph from James Franco! I love trips to NYC and it's nice now that we are not too far away! Hopefully we can go again some time soon and see some more shows!<br />

Also while we were in NYC we decided on Sunday morning that we should try to get a <a href="http://dominiqueansel.com/cronut-101/" target="_blank">cronut</a>! Courtney and I had both heard about them from watching Jimmy Fallon. We knew there are usually huge lines for them, but figured that since its been awhile since they first came out that maybe we would get lucky. We definitely got lucky... really lucky. When we got there we hurried into the cronut line and I got super excited that we were going to get one. Almost immediately someone came over to the line and told everyone that they only had so many cronuts left and they couldn't guarantee that everyone in line would get one. Ugh! The three girls in front of us left the line but we decided to stick around. It didn't take long until we were the next people in line to order, and then a woman at the door yells "YES!!!! We got the Last Cronut!!!" and we see them take the last box out of the display case and hand it to the woman in front of us. BUT lucky us, they bring one last box over, and Korey asks if they have any cronuts left and they tell him only one more and we get it! We had to share it with Courtney and Matt of course but that's okay! It was definitely worth hanging out in line for a little bit and we got a couple other pastries also that were delicious! Next time we are in NYC we might have to go back to <a href="http://dominiqueansel.com/" target="_blank">Dominique Ansel Bakery</a> and get another one :)<br />

We've now been living in our new house for over a year. We're slowly painting and doing some other things to the house. We are still really happy with our house and are having fun picking paint colors and trying to think of some little projects we can do here and there. Unfortunately we are also still not in love with the area we live in. Going to places like Washing DC and NYC on some weekends is helping us like it a little more, but it still doesn't change the fact that we don't have as much stuff to do in the area as we are used to and would like. I thought maybe summer would make it a little better, and it has to some extent. I love being able to get outside with Konnor and the sunshine and warm weather makes me happy, but it also makes me miss living close to a beach, and there just aren't as many places to go for safe fun walks with Konnor around here. Hopefully some day we will be able to move back to where we really want to be, but until then we will definitely keep trying to find things to do around here, and we'll keep working on the house.<br />
Hope everyone is enjoying the nicer weather, and maybe I'll remember to post something again before another month goes by.<br />

I've really been slacking at posting anything lately!! Konnor had his 18 month appointment last week and although he only gained 10 oz he shot up in height. He grew 2 1/4 inches and is still off the charts for height. He chatted with his pediatrician a lot while we were there :). He asked her for the "block please" when he wanted the big block toy that was sitting beside her, he showed her his stuffed "bunny" that we brought with us and made sure to say "bye bye" to her when she left. He only had to get one shot thank goodness and it went pretty well. He always seems to get over the shots pretty quickly. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the past month that I haven't remembered to post anything at all, we've been to Washington D.C three times. The first time we went Easter weekend with our friend Jill who was visiting! We were excited to see Jill again. We hadn't seen her since we left Charleston! We were very happy she made the trip up to see us! We had fun at the zoo and going to the museum of natural history and just walking around. Konnor was excited to see an elephant at the zoo, and to finally get out of his stroller and walk around some :) The second time we went was Mother's Day Weekend. Konnor's Aunt Courtney drove down just for the day so she could go with us! We went to the zoo again and did some more walking around and visited the museum of American history. It was a nice warm day and we had a lot of fun! The weekend right after that we went again with my parents. We skipped the zoo that time, but took a trolley tour and got to see a lot and learn a lot. I'm sure we will definitely go back again some time this summer!</div>

Okay.. sorry for the picture overload! <br />
<br />
Other than our little weekend trips to Washington D.C. we've been pretty much just hanging out and getting outside whenever we can! We got a new sliding door for our deck so now it will close properly! Korey and I both just completed T25 and loved it. I think I'm going to do another round of it, and Korey is going to start training for the two triathlons he has signed up for! Konnor definitely keeps us busy every day! He's always on the go and he's always trying to talk to us and tell us something! :) We love hearing him talk! I swear he says something new every day! Korey fixed our clock in the living room that goes off every hour, and Konnor loves when it makes noise. As soon as he hears it he smiles and starts saying "ding dong". He also points to it throughout the day and says "clock ding dong" and wants it to make noise. For the most part he loves pushing all his cars and trucks around still, and he loves to read books. He will bring me books several times a day and want me to read them to him. Or if he can't find one of his favorites like Go, Dog Go then he will run around the house saying "go go" and look for it! There is never a dull moment with him and we love it! :)<br />

Of course I had to include a picture of Chloe and Bella. Bella still wants nothing to do with Konnor even though he really wants to be her friend haha and Chloe still loves him (except when he is trying to head butt her). Bella's pretty independent anyway so she hangs out upstairs or behind the couch while Konnor is running around, and we make sure she gets attention at night after he's gone to bed! <br />

I know I say this all the time. I swear this year is just flying by. I don't know if it seems that way because we have Konnor now and he's so busy and growing so much each day or if I'm just crazy :). At 17 months Konnor is already trying to be more independent. He wants to be down walking all the time and he wants to go in whatever direction he wants which is not usually where we want him to go! He likes going to the park but not because he likes to swing or slide. He actually pretty much avoids the playground part of the parks and he heads right to running around the paths or grass or trying to run straight into any water that might be in the area. <div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiFbvFWZWg1Z-5lyWm5_3QnLEmAK99jr7nE95k5_YTBN_dPt51roaGEFsaGHqSS4AZKwMCyr_ZfBatn6VR9NxQbk3XR7kr8SGHHpMhsH-v3n7MgNepvt7H8iCbwI0XTFW-Y69Xa_TwaWY/s640/blogger-image--900020903.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiFbvFWZWg1Z-5lyWm5_3QnLEmAK99jr7nE95k5_YTBN_dPt51roaGEFsaGHqSS4AZKwMCyr_ZfBatn6VR9NxQbk3XR7kr8SGHHpMhsH-v3n7MgNepvt7H8iCbwI0XTFW-Y69Xa_TwaWY/s640/blogger-image--900020903.jpg"></a></div> </div><div>He is still talking up a storm. Some new words he now says are blankie, bath, ("bash") uncle, aunt ("ent"), oh stop, block, and he's gotten good at saying "neigh" when we ask what a horse says. The neighbors have balloons tied to their mailbox and when we go out the door we always hear "bawoon" "bawoon". </div><div>Sleeping of course as usual is still an issue. His canine teeth have still not come through but he has been chewing and drooling like crazy the past couple days.

It's not unusual to turn away for a second and find him sitting on the fireplace looking at you with his "what are you going to do now" look :). He's a pro at going up stairs and we are working on showing him how to go back down on his belly. He's getting pretty good at it. </div><div>We spent most of this past weekend outside because the weather was so nice! Konnor loved being outside. He didn't love when we wouldn't let him go in the creek behind the house.

Another random post! This year is just flying by already! It's finally starting to warm up a little which is wonderful! It's also kind of sad that I'm now saying that 50 degree weather is "warm" :) I still miss the South, but I'm hoping that as the weather warms up I'll find some fun things to do to make me like this place a little bit more! I can't wait to take Konnor to the parks in the afternoon and spend most of the days outside! Now we just have to get rid of all the rain that has come with the warmer weather. I'll take rain over snow at this point though!<br>
Korey and I started doing the T25 workouts a couple weeks ago! We love it! It's wonderful to get my workout done in 25 minutes. It gives me so much more time to do other things while Konnor is napping. I'm also looking forward to being able to run outside again now that it is warmer and lighter out longer! Korey and I also signed up for the Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon in November. I love this race. My sister and I have run it twice before and it's my favorite half marathon so far. I am a night person and the race is at night which is wonderful! It's fun to run through the Disney parks at night and to have some nice food and wine afterwards :) I feel like I need to start running right now so I'm prepared. It will be November before we know it! Since the race weekend is right around Konnor's birthday, we are going to spend the week in Disney and celebrate his second birthday! I'm excited! It's always nice to have trips to look forward to!<br>
I've been reading a lot of books lately. I've been using the Overdrive app to get library books on my phone which has been wonderful! I read on my phone at night when Konnor wakes up and I was buying a lot of books for my Nook app so I would have something to read, and then I remembered that our library has a digital library also. So now I can just get library books on my phone and not have to pay for them! I love it! I also still get actual books from the library every time I go there too. It seems like every time I go I return one book and get two more! Konnor also enjoys our trips to the library and most of the time it's a struggle to get him to leave! They have a kids area with cars and trucks and I usually have to bribe him with food to get him to leave the library without having a melt down! Hopefully some day he doesn't want to leave the library because of the books and not just the trucks :)<br>
Some of the books I've read lately are: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Descendants-Kaui-Hart-Hemmings-ebook/dp/B000QCQ91G/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1396280154&sr=1-1&keywords=the+descendents" target="_blank">The Descendants</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Divergent-Veronica-Roth-ebook/dp/B004CFA9RS/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1396280204&sr=1-1&keywords=divergent" target="_blank">Divergent</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Hotel-Corner-Bitter-Sweet-Jamie-ebook/dp/B001NLL5AO/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1396280309&sr=1-1&keywords=hotel+on+the+corner+of+bitter+and+sweet" target="_blank">Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Gone-Girl-Gillian-Flynn-ebook/dp/B006LSZECO/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1396280346&sr=1-1&keywords=gone+girl" target="_blank">Gone Girl</a>, and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/First-Phone-Call-Heaven-ebook/dp/B00CLH38JU/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1396280405&sr=1-1&keywords=the+first+phone+call+from+heaven" target="_blank">The First Phone Call from Heaven</a>.

A couple weekends ago we met up with our friends Tom and Julia in Delaware. We hadn't seen them for a really long time. It was great to get together again and catch up! We went to the <a href="http://www.dogfish.com/community/tours/index.htm" target="_blank">Dogfish Head Brewery</a> for a tour and tasting and then walked along the boardwalk at Rehoboth Beach. The kids got to run around outside at the brewery and Konnor had a blast! Tom and Julia have two wonderful children. Their son was very well mannered and I hope some day that Konnor is just as well behaved and fun! Their little girl is right around Konnor's age and she was adorable. Of course now I want to have a little girl if we have another child :) Hopefully we can get together with them again soon!<div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpC61RSQpI_ORlHi1abes3FQ38mnJq4Rb5YVsyihyM6MELlV7GaCxlydsWBZWhyphenhyphenl1PkQgh81ytTuOFMeYKULCZcDZ62XEU4GEWbZFO6UmYUOrno1-Jjk82CCGxFiH9X6uJyeJd9vKYbQ/s640/blogger-image-2016401689.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpC61RSQpI_ORlHi1abes3FQ38mnJq4Rb5YVsyihyM6MELlV7GaCxlydsWBZWhyphenhyphenl1PkQgh81ytTuOFMeYKULCZcDZ62XEU4GEWbZFO6UmYUOrno1-Jjk82CCGxFiH9X6uJyeJd9vKYbQ/s640/blogger-image-2016401689.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLR7C5wdhudKZgC-ZM3sLgqKVxwJQ_xKSJOF4Im44l58DLOAA_-sB5akAmXPDBq5QnD0FxQmgnSqHczUu9WiJ5w6pUSDNofL92xQaywGHlbi5GIBuphX12Q0_-LO3imnF2Ec5timicRfQ/s640/blogger-image-1548509584.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLR7C5wdhudKZgC-ZM3sLgqKVxwJQ_xKSJOF4Im44l58DLOAA_-sB5akAmXPDBq5QnD0FxQmgnSqHczUu9WiJ5w6pUSDNofL92xQaywGHlbi5GIBuphX12Q0_-LO3imnF2Ec5timicRfQ/s640/blogger-image-1548509584.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiefbg5qygRWjZnanlyMGtRvKEI8gl7gSPZu1gEvN7Ac7wtbOfvYT8UtSCHvyAZQPBek8ziUOGgpdWOqm6tIyhAhcWFhwLhTTkgI2FZPLMRNFnL0N7Y4WmFz0F4BgQ3CcjgYl8v3XC-10g/s640/blogger-image-2099295803.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiefbg5qygRWjZnanlyMGtRvKEI8gl7gSPZu1gEvN7Ac7wtbOfvYT8UtSCHvyAZQPBek8ziUOGgpdWOqm6tIyhAhcWFhwLhTTkgI2FZPLMRNFnL0N7Y4WmFz0F4BgQ3CcjgYl8v3XC-10g/s640/blogger-image-2099295803.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicP7ZrgKA7Jl3TEZzzyFcLECW1uEdbk9Hr61jX8TXnASxgFO1czpUyypDedOGS_2bA8OuXk5MtVTc_wnOhilg_E4fu5sBHdpxc_8j07mUNpeOKnMp9j80cBzcxaFp31PIop1Wh0GTFM1k/s640/blogger-image--878599405.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicP7ZrgKA7Jl3TEZzzyFcLECW1uEdbk9Hr61jX8TXnASxgFO1czpUyypDedOGS_2bA8OuXk5MtVTc_wnOhilg_E4fu5sBHdpxc_8j07mUNpeOKnMp9j80cBzcxaFp31PIop1Wh0GTFM1k/s640/blogger-image--878599405.jpg"></a></div></div></div></div><br>
I don't really think we have any big plans for April. We are expecting some visitors which is always nice. We're really excited that Jill is coming to visit us for Easter. We haven't seen her since we left Charleston and we miss her!! We might try and go on a day trip to D.C. while she is visiting! I just hope that the weather is significantly warmer by then!<br>
I think that's all for now. Nothing too crazy or exciting. I hope everyone has been staying warm and hopefully Spring and Summer weather will be here soon!</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDawKc93pwmpNY9BJ2BBHmmxoFlFVOtZnZWVlL9f32XSo9c5v8pICV4srXlRm7LG_q1GzaFGCZLC7_Vf5h2_B2N48r8kxEc52Y67cJat_DrLpWO1h1UucZ3lheBFl0DS_3nGeMHiBqWCw/s640/blogger-image--1143584809.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDawKc93pwmpNY9BJ2BBHmmxoFlFVOtZnZWVlL9f32XSo9c5v8pICV4srXlRm7LG_q1GzaFGCZLC7_Vf5h2_B2N48r8kxEc52Y67cJat_DrLpWO1h1UucZ3lheBFl0DS_3nGeMHiBqWCw/s640/blogger-image--1143584809.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMQuxQf8WFXyn2SriDyFG4FsmdxOm6clp4UsorHkHqkY-rQN_yxiaIt5gySwNjejZTSoW-VMq4YDbmTBhjHBV-auC_1v1ymjcEnG0WKEhveo52QJ2oN8byP9lX-KB5xdp0z0ho-KGWsLk/s640/blogger-image--1032212533.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMQuxQf8WFXyn2SriDyFG4FsmdxOm6clp4UsorHkHqkY-rQN_yxiaIt5gySwNjejZTSoW-VMq4YDbmTBhjHBV-auC_1v1ymjcEnG0WKEhveo52QJ2oN8byP9lX-KB5xdp0z0ho-KGWsLk/s640/blogger-image--1032212533.jpg"></a></div><br></div><br>

It's crazy that it's already March. I've been terrible at writing anything lately. I can't write when Konnor is awake because anytime we open up the computer he runs over and wants to tap away at the keys :) This year is flying by already! Konnor is now 16 months old! He still isn't sleeping at night. He doesn't really stay up for long periods of time anymore, now he just wakes up several times and doesn't seem to sleep more than 3 hours at a time. I'm not sure if it was worse when he was up for 3 hours, or worse now that he doesn't sleep for long periods of time. Either way I am barely getting any sleep at all. The lack of sleep doesn't seem to bother Konnor to much though. He takes good naps and still has lots of energy during the day. He is still chatting up a storm. He's started saying Chloe, bubble, please he added "baa" to his animal noises, and he babbles nonsense to us all the time (although I'm sure he knows exactly what he is trying to say). He walks and runs all over the place and can climb the stairs super fast! Yesterday we went for a walk twice around the neighborhood with me just holding his hand. He loved it! His favorite toys are probably still his cars. He likes to push them all over the living room. He has tons of trucks and cars, but he calls all of them cars! His newest thing is to wear his sunglasses around the house. If he finds them he immediately wants to point them on and wear them around. We are having so much fun watching him grow. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As far as keeping up with my resolutions, I have not been doing that great of a job! I am still behind on Konnor's scrapbook because I need to order some pictures to finish up the last few months. I was waiting for one of the penny print deals and I found one going on right now so I'm going to order pictures today and then hopefully make some time to finish the scrapbook SOON!!!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The weather has been a little warmer so I'm hoping I can get out and run more soon. I went for a run the other day and it actually felt pretty good, so I'm excited to start running more frequently. Korey and I signed up for the Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon in November so I'm excited to run more and train for that later this year. We also signed Konnor up for one of the kids races and I can't wait for him to get to run his little race! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been slacking on writing posts on here. Almost a whole month went by between this post and the last one. Hopefully with the weather getting warmer we will have more going on and more to write about! The past couple days we took advantage of the nicer weather! Today though it is back to the low 30's which is sad.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm really just ready for warm weather. I love being out in the sun and I don't mind the heat. I hope we can get a chance to go to a beach a couple times this summer and I want to take Konnor swimming a lot. He's really enjoying his swim classes right now. He doesn't seem to mind being in the water at all. He does great when we dunk him and they always comment on how relaxed he is in the pool. The only thing he dislikes is floating on his back! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I hope everyone has been staying warm in this crazy weather and hopefully it will feel like Spring soon!</div>

We just had his 15 month appointment last week. Everything seemed great. He is in the 94th percentile for both height and weight! He got two shots and only really fussed when they put the band aids on! <div>At 15 months Konnor is walking/running everywhere and talking up a storm. He is very chatty and says several words. I think his favorite thing to say right now is "oh no". He also says "uh oh" a lot. Usually after he chucks a toy across the room. He also says star, daddy, mom, hi, "gurt" for yogurt, "nana" for banana, car, ball, he attempts saying Chloe and Bella, and I know there are more I'm forgetting. He also has started to "moo" with us when we ask what a cow says and he will "meow" when we ask what a cat says. </div><div>Teething has always been an issue for Konnor and still is. He is up almost every night for a couple hours. It's tiring and no amount of teething toys, frozen wash cloths, or even Tylenol seems to help. He has been a pretty crappy sleeper ever since he got his first two teeth. It seems like teeth have just been coming non stop. He finally has all his molars (which took several months!!), but now I think he is getting the canine teeth. Hopefully they will come in a little quicker and the little guy can get some more consistent sleep. Until then naps are a necessity. If anyone has any teething tips or remedies let me know! </div><div>We started going to the program at the library again and Konnor really likes it. He struggles with sitting still for too long. He likes to listen to the singing and he loves the bubble blowing part, but most of the time he would rather be running around the room. They have a free play time at the end and Konnor loves running around the room with two of the other little boys and he also likes pushing the trucks around. We usually pick out some library books each week. I remember getting books from the library when I was a kid and I can't wait until Konnor is old enough to pick out books himself. I loved going to the library and I hope he does too!</div><div>We also signed him up for some parent and me swim classes finally. They were supposed to start last week but we got a ton of snow on the day of his class so we are going tomorrow to make up that class. I'm excited. He really seemed to like swimming this past summer so I hope he has a lot of fun in this class. Korey and I are going to take turns getting in the water with him for the classes. I think I get to go in for the first class :). </div><div>So even though there is a lot of snow on the ground and we still have dreams of moving back to Charleston ASAP, things are going well here :). Hopefully the weather warms up soon and we can keep finding fun things to do together!</div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcDuOWkLT6WYT1TFdkUceRrJhvRqkPW7bUgz4vL8h4AMLMT_MiHS03SlNB3RcEQNsVvdGRSatPTE1lf39oT-7wMAzpIUfgslf7x4rsIAKrxBsMF1XtZzcqaJiLkpqXRsB0RxC5cYIkfKc/s640/blogger-image-673552826.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcDuOWkLT6WYT1TFdkUceRrJhvRqkPW7bUgz4vL8h4AMLMT_MiHS03SlNB3RcEQNsVvdGRSatPTE1lf39oT-7wMAzpIUfgslf7x4rsIAKrxBsMF1XtZzcqaJiLkpqXRsB0RxC5cYIkfKc/s640/blogger-image-673552826.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEtoMREKf1k-19j1stpBV5lubm1WujacrK5wljTuyWdkSyvb1A8_GZ_YB6RAtZ3hajEQyas-TzdPAar1F2h0IP6_bXg-3EOx4730MlVxChq2nsORQKTIlIe9vb0BGMlSmXwBiJsYDsqC8/s640/blogger-image-1355729558.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEtoMREKf1k-19j1stpBV5lubm1WujacrK5wljTuyWdkSyvb1A8_GZ_YB6RAtZ3hajEQyas-TzdPAar1F2h0IP6_bXg-3EOx4730MlVxChq2nsORQKTIlIe9vb0BGMlSmXwBiJsYDsqC8/s640/blogger-image-1355729558.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn4mWJ_oYVLCBuVWZnn0hT1z9S6Oxn9pl7JNNNhkTMHk1Ig4Ag0SHevduLElrHDBo-I8gAZusuZ3aniIMJMaWFBF16rN-HTpWK8OXxCPppz3Pq6EY60q-b4uF8xsT27OPSZNldSUO7jYA/s640/blogger-image-1119811015.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn4mWJ_oYVLCBuVWZnn0hT1z9S6Oxn9pl7JNNNhkTMHk1Ig4Ag0SHevduLElrHDBo-I8gAZusuZ3aniIMJMaWFBF16rN-HTpWK8OXxCPppz3Pq6EY60q-b4uF8xsT27OPSZNldSUO7jYA/s640/blogger-image-1119811015.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiS2Z2XcqYCyDmxKHs9O66gEexaBzzVX6MaFX15-1uvTuqQ5VKW0FuFSCXqq62coIj3bavUYHQSxoT1psmxw5199VeaJ-f3d-mLvQ5erFImSOMHiugpn_GGHdy1YN0QKnXMp6ZfxnYpVM/s640/blogger-image-732612154.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiS2Z2XcqYCyDmxKHs9O66gEexaBzzVX6MaFX15-1uvTuqQ5VKW0FuFSCXqq62coIj3bavUYHQSxoT1psmxw5199VeaJ-f3d-mLvQ5erFImSOMHiugpn_GGHdy1YN0QKnXMp6ZfxnYpVM/s640/blogger-image-732612154.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSJTs-9ZfZzkEFwozdGkUXaVl0QWG3yJJWT-SdwEE_63UhN-aaiQxlfy529kRPEgR-9BR5g0lVJgYLKkpRHip3LcX7hDMM7rE5Rhzl9TXa-NOqg2L-c-Ly10fev44XK3UQK0DaS-Nt4L0/s640/blogger-image-544606793.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSJTs-9ZfZzkEFwozdGkUXaVl0QWG3yJJWT-SdwEE_63UhN-aaiQxlfy529kRPEgR-9BR5g0lVJgYLKkpRHip3LcX7hDMM7rE5Rhzl9TXa-NOqg2L-c-Ly10fev44XK3UQK0DaS-Nt4L0/s640/blogger-image-544606793.jpg"></a></div><br></div><br></div>Kristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05252850461880217224noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800836241300571856.post-31847507978464181482014-02-03T19:03:00.002-08:002014-02-03T19:03:20.069-08:00Resolution Update<div style="text-align: justify;">
I can't believe January is over and February is here already! Part of me is sad the month went so fast, and the other part is happy because it means warmer weather is closer!! I wanted to post an update about my resolutions at the end of each month, and of course I'm already behind :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My first resolution was to try more things that I pin on Pinterest. I think I've done pretty good at achieving this goal. We have made a couple meals that I've pinned this month, and they all turned out pretty well. Some of the meals we tried were: <a href="http://www.ziplist.com/recipes/1488136-Skillet_Chili_Mac?spJobID=319062858&_szp=419489&spReportId=MzE5MDYyODU4S0&spUserID=MzM3MTU5MDQwMDcS1&spMailingID=5465196" target="_blank">Skillet Chili Mac</a>, and <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/179158891400296881/" target="_blank">Crockpot Italian Chicken</a>. They both were a success and we will probably make them again! Now I need to try some of the non food stuff I pinned next month!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next was trying to read more books. Thanks to Konnor being awake so much at night, I've actually read several books in January! While he's awake and I'm trying to get him to go back to sleep I usually read books on my phone. I've also been reading the library books I get a lot quicker. So I'm definitely happy with that resolution!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The scrapbook resolution I am not doing so well on. I don't think I did any pages the whole month of January. I better get to work in February if I'm going to finish it by the end of this month.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Running is also another resolution I've been slacking on. It's been so cold and gross outside. I know that those are just excuses and that I really could find a way to make it happen. I think I may try and find a 5k in March or April to sign up for so I have some motivation to run again. I really really want to run again, I just don't want to do it when it's really dark out around here because there aren't many safe places, and I would prefer it to be a little warmer :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Writing on the blog more was another resolution. I've been trying to write more, but I don't think I've been very successful at this either. Hopefully there will be more exciting things going on in February to write about. Konnor's library classes start tomorrow, and swimming starts next week so that will be exciting!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The last resolution I had listed was to be outside with Konnor all summer. I definitely haven't done that one yet, but I really hope when the weather gets warmer that Konnor and I can be outside all the time. We do try and go out in the yard as often as we can when the weather is above freezing :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So that's the update for January! So far the year hasn't been too exciting. I'm hoping as the weather gets warmer and we find more activities for Konnor that things will get a little better. He's still waking up every night and staying awake for a couple hours most nights which stinks. I can't tell if the reason he's waking up is still from teething or not. He still has a couple more teeth to get so it probably is! Other than that, he's been walking all over and talking up a storm. He's starting to say more words, and he likes trying to repeat what we say. He likes to tell the dogs "down" and "sit". My favorite is when he tries to say "slam dunk" after he makes a basket in his bathtub basketball hoop. He tries to say "banana" and "yogurt" and he is doing a great job with his sign language for "more" and "please"!</div>

All over the place is how my thoughts are today (and pretty much every night when I'm trying to fall asleep). So when that happens I figure it's usually time for a post about a bunch of random things!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First I wanted to say Thank You to anyone who has bought anything from my <a href="https://www.chloeandisabel.com/boutique/kristyw" target="_blank">Chloe + Isabel store</a>. I've been having fun creating my website and showing off the great jewelry they have. I decided to sell Chloe + Isabel jewelry because I really liked their pieces and I wanted to find something to do for myself to earn a little extra cash. It's definitely been fun and I hope anyone who has purchased anything has really liked what they bought! If you haven't gone to look at their jewelry yet you can go to: https://www.chloeandisabel.com/boutique/kristyw </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Remember Valentine's Day is coming soon ;)</div>

Konnor and I have been busy working together to make some cards. We have a lot of Thank You cards to send out, and I also want to try and be better at sending Birthday cards this year. Since it has been so cold out, it isn't always easy finding things to do with Konnor to keep him entertained. He likes to finger paint though so we have been doing a lot of that, and making cards out of his hand prints! He's gotten a little better about not always trying to eat the paint too! :)</div>

I've also been trying to work on Konnor's first year scrapbook. It's coming along, but some days I feel like he will be 3 before I even get the first year book done. He's been awake so much at night the past several months while he's been getting his molars, and so most days I feel like a zombie and I don't get as much done around the house as I would like to. I definitely want to have his book done by the end of February though so that I can get started on his book for his second year and not get too far behind on it! Hopefully I can stick with this goal or even get it done a little sooner!</div>

<a href="http://100happydays.com/" target="_blank">#100happydays </a> Someone posted a link on Facebook about this project and it caught my eye. I went to their website: http://100happydays.com/ and read what it was about. I love the idea and decided to give it a try. The plan is to post one picture each day for 100 days showing something that made you happy that day. The goal is to take the time to appreciate your life and all the things that make you happy! This came at a good time for me. I'm not necessarily unhappy right now, but with being stuck inside with Konnor most days due to the freezing weather, the fact that I don't really like snow and cold weather, and that I don't really love where we are living right now, I'd say it's definitely a good time to start looking at the things I am happy about! There is no deadline of when you have to start this project so if you think it's something you might like to try then go on over to the website and sign up! You can choose how you want to post your pictures. I will be posting mine on instagram so if you want to follow my 100 days then you can search for me on instagram! (My username is K474)</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Talking about Instagram brings me to my next random thought: <a href="http://printstagr.am/" target="_blank">Prinstagram</a>. I had been searching for a place that will print my Instagram pictures and then one day a relative of mine posted a picture of her purchases from Prinstagram and I loved them! I went to their website and I recently ordered some pictures and they turned out wonderful! It's not always easy to print your Instagram pictures since they aren't the normal 4x6 size, so I love that you can just go to Prinstagram and order your pictures. The photos were all good quality and we even bought some to use as our Christmas "cards" this year. They also have great customer service. I sent an email to the company letting them know how much we loved the pictures, and I got a nice thank you reply back and a coupon code for $10 off my next order. I will definitely be ordering more products from them in the future! The company is social print studio and they also will print any picture you have on your computer or from your Facebook. So if you have any Instagram or any other pictures you want printed out, then you should definitely check them out. The Prinstagram website is: http://printstagr.am/ or you can go to http://socialprintstudio.com/ and find any of their printing websites from there. </div>

<a href="http://www.goodnightourworld.com/" target="_blank">Good Night Our World Books</a>. I am in love with these books. We received Good Night Maine from one of our good friends as a gift for Konnor at one of our baby showers. We also got Good Night Charleston from another good friend of ours. Since then we have gotten a bunch of the Good Night Our World books and they are all great. We have Good Night Maine, Charleston, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Ocean, Farm, Baby Jesus, and North Pole. I'm hoping that we can get the books for all the places we live, and for anywhere we go to visit with Konnor. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is probably enough Random stuff for now! I hope everyone is staying warm! Soon I will have update everyone on how my resolutions are going so far! </div>

I always like trying to come up with some resolutions for myself and hoping that I can stick with them! This year I figured I'd share a few of mine and maybe that will help me stick with them?!<br />
<ul>
<li> I'd like to try more things that I pin on Pinterest. I love going on there and seeing what people are pinning, and I am always pinning away. Unfortunately I rarely actually remember to try any of the things I've pinned. This year I want to at least try one thing a month that I've pinned on Pinterest. I'd love to do more than one a month, but I'll stick with trying at least one! </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> I want to read more. Last year I read a lot less books than I normally do. I know that I was busy with Konnor, but that's no excuse. He takes two naps every day so there are plenty of times I can be reading. I think my biggest problem is watching too many shows on Hulu and Netflix! </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> Keeping up with my yearly scrapbooks for Konnor. I started a scrapbook of Konnor's first year and I have a goal to try and complete one each year. So far I am still working on the first one, and his birthday was already 2 months ago. I want to get the first one completed and catch up on the second one so that I don't always feel like I'm behind. It's easier to write stuff down for him if I keep them up to date!</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Run again! I really want/need to start running again. I took way too much time off from running and then I started again right around the time it got cold and dark out earlier. Unfortunately I haven't found any good places to run with Konnor in the stroller yet, so I was waiting for Korey to get home from work to go for my runs. Then it got cold and I got discouraged, and I also wasn't looking forward to running in the dark. I really miss it though, and I am determined to start again and keep with it. I would love to sign up for some 5ks this summer. I only did one last year and that makes me sad.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Write more blog posts. I enjoy writing these posts. Even if nobody ever reads them, I enjoy getting my thoughts out and being able to go back and read through them. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Spend all Summer outside with Konnor! I can't wait until Summer. Now that he is walking around, I hope to be outside with him all the time. Whether its just playing in our backyard, going swimming, going for walks, going to the playground or whatever! </li>
</ul>
I have so many more resolutions for myself but I'll just share those few. Hopefully I can stick with most of them, and I'll post some updates throughout the year! If you made some resolutions of your own, I hope you are able to stick with them and have fun doing them!<br />

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas this year. We went home to spend Christmas with our family this year was not at all what we had envisioned! On Christmas Eve, Konnor was acting a little fussy and he fell asleep while we were only on our second book at bedtime. He didn't even make it to his bottle. He then woke up a lot during the night (which isn't really rare for him, especially since he's been working on getting his top molars). On Christmas morning we went to Korey's parents house to open gifts and Konnor was just not acting like himself at all. He was cranky, tired, and just wanted me to hold him. We took his temperature and it was 102 so we decided to take him to the ER and see what was up. Definitely not at all what we were planning to do on Christmas morning. We were at the ER for a couple hours. Poor Konnor had his nose swabbed, a chest x-ray, and a shot. They decided that he had an ear infection and slight pneumonia. They put him on an antibiotic and sent us home! After his shot of medicine, he was acting a little more himself, but he napped quite a bit the rest of the day. Over the next few days he seemed to be feeling much better, but the antibiotic gave him a terrible diaper rash :( . The poor guy couldn't catch a break. We are now done with the antibiotic and he had a follow up visit with his pediatrician who said that his ear infection was gone, and he was healthy! He still has a slight diaper rash but after lots of research from Grandma Witt and Grandma Kelso (who made sure he had oatmeal baths, rooibus tea, and some great diaper cream) it's looking much better.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We all got a lot of great stuff for Christmas and we are super thankful! Konnor got TONS of toys and he LOVES them all! He will have plenty of toys to play with from now until next Christmas :) He also got lots of clothes so we won't have to worry about buying any for a long time! I got a bluetooth speaker for my car from Korey and I love using it! I no longer have to worry about getting pulled over for being on my phone while driving! Korey's favorite gifts are probably the tools he got, and his new Steelers sweatshirt. We also loved giving all our family their gifts and watching them open them! I love picking out gifts for people!</div>
We are happy that we were able to be home for such a long time. Usually our visits are just a over a long weekend. It was nice to have some time to relax and to see friends and family. We were glad we got to visit with some friends we don't always get to see when we are home! Hopefully over the summer we can go home for a longer period of time again!<br />
It seems like Christmas came and went so fast. I was not very organized this year either. We of course were still buying some gifts last minute, our cards didn't go out until after Christmas, and we still have to take our tree and decorations down. Maybe next year I will be prepared. Who am I kidding?... I say that every year and I'm always buying stuff last minute and trying to get cards out on time :) Maybe that's half the fun?<br />
I guess all I really want for Christmas next year is for Konnor to be healthy! <br />

Since we had Konnor there have been a lot of fun things, but I may have a new favorite. When we go anywhere with Konnor there are always people who come up to us and tell us how cute he is, or ask how old he is, or what his name is, and they tell us all about their kids and grand kids. It never fails. This happens every single time. Whether we are grocery shopping, at the mall, out to dinner, or anywhere else. I love it. I mean who doesn't love getting told how cute their kid is?! But that's not the main reason I love it. I love it because it's wonderful to see someone else light up just from seeing Konnor. I love how big they smile when they see him. I love that they like talking to him and making faces at him. And I really do love hearing about all their own kids and grand kids! It's so nice to hear how proud people are of their own children and grandchildren. Anytime someone comes over to talk to Konnor and me, I try to make sure I don't rush and that we take the time to listen and talk back! Konnor will reach his hand out to people in the store and if we stop by someone he will start babbling like he's carrying on a conversation with them. It makes their day and mine too. I'm sure a lot of parents experience this and I hope they enjoy it as much as I do! I like to call it the Konnor Effect :). I hope he stays this friendly and chatty and I hope he is still making people smile for years to come! We love this little guy and I'm so glad he gives me the chance to talk to so many more people when I'm out.<div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5p6putAZSmQAbFhl1eEo681kjt4phMimopjiw9c_hZow23YopyLrLuPHNT9IOGegFC2vonkBGrKBhnM0VDsKxVeu6F7oHCYLSEpY6s9YRVVFP92_vfm70s7b18FqTFMeLE-Y-L9QmXVo/s640/blogger-image-1559705492.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5p6putAZSmQAbFhl1eEo681kjt4phMimopjiw9c_hZow23YopyLrLuPHNT9IOGegFC2vonkBGrKBhnM0VDsKxVeu6F7oHCYLSEpY6s9YRVVFP92_vfm70s7b18FqTFMeLE-Y-L9QmXVo/s640/blogger-image-1559705492.jpg"></a></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW-AU5jQ3wnNfTaR_u__AD_ToJXhApHh_q2CDLw4WhqnNRKqbGDvnKHMf2qEe61YGpa9TKmNai70zcGOlcTX3utZBG4BC7WC-DpnhTeLEeXiLtGrDgC0X4SZjLe9iKxe-qEWTJ40X4JA8/s640/blogger-image--898276506.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW-AU5jQ3wnNfTaR_u__AD_ToJXhApHh_q2CDLw4WhqnNRKqbGDvnKHMf2qEe61YGpa9TKmNai70zcGOlcTX3utZBG4BC7WC-DpnhTeLEeXiLtGrDgC0X4SZjLe9iKxe-qEWTJ40X4JA8/s640/blogger-image--898276506.jpg"></a></div><br></div><br></div></div>Kristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05252850461880217224noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800836241300571856.post-55418284813547781132013-12-03T19:56:00.002-08:002013-12-03T19:56:53.842-08:00Thankful<div style="text-align: justify;">
Every year I really enjoy seeing everyone's daily Thankful posts on Facebook. I never do it myself on Facebook (not because I'm not thankful) because I know that I would never remember to keep up with it. I am so forgetful and I'd end up writing something for the first day and then forget about it again until day 10. So I'm just going to post all the things I am thankful for here. I figured I'd try and do one for every day in November. I should be able to find 30 things that I am thankful for! Some will be bigger than others, and some will have longer explanations than others, but here goes my 30 things.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
30 Things I am Thankful For...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(in no particular order)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Korey and Konnor. They go together. I am extremely thankful to have both of them in my life! I was lucky enough to start dating Korey in high school. I love that we have been able to spend so many years of our lives together. It's so fun to be able to say that we have been together for at least half of our lives. We have gone through so much together, and there is noone else that I want to spend my life with. Korey is a great father to Konnor. Every night we do Konnor's bath time together and I love singing fun kid songs with Korey while Konnor looks at us like we are crazy :) Without Korey there would be no Konnor. We love Konnor so much. We've always wanted children and even though it seemd to take longer to have one than we had expected, it was well worth the wait. Konnor is perfect! Even when he is awake for 3 hours at night he is perfect :) Every day he seems to grow right before our eyes. It's bittersweet. We love watching him grow, but it's also sad to see him becoming a little boy so fast! He's walking all over the place and chattering all the time. He has taught us so much about love, patience, and how to see the world through the eyes of a child again! We could not be more blessed!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Having the opportunity to be a stay at home mom. I know how lucky I am to be able to stay at home with Konnor. There are definitely some days where I'm ready for a small break by the end of the day, but I love getting to spend so much time with him. We've had to sacrifice some things for me to be able to stay at home, but I am so glad we have been able to make it work.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Family. I love my family. Even though I'm sad we don't live in Charleston anymore, it has been nice to be able to see family more often. We have been able to see our parents, siblings and grandparents a lot more frequently since we have moved closer. It's nice that Konnor has also gotten the chance to see his grandparents, aunt, uncle, and great grandparents more frequently too :) We also appreciate that they come down to visit us just as much as we go up to see them. I'm also always happy when we get the chance to see other family members too!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Bella and Chloe- Our furry family members. We got Bella almost immediately after we got married. I wanted a dog growing up, but was never able to have one. As soon as we got married, getting a dog was one of the first things we did. Bella can be a little ornary at times, but we love her. We got Chloe a couple years later and I'm so glad we did. I love having two dogs and Chloe is the best friend to Konnor. She will let him crawl over, under, and all around her without moving. She likes when he throws the ball to her, and you can always find her laying beside him in the living room. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Friends. We are very lucky to have some pretty awesome friends. We have had to move so many times in the past few years, and we have always managed to make some great friends wherever we have lived. We have kept in touch with so many people, and we try to visit friends as often as we can, and we love when they come to visit us. Friends are so important, and I'm glad that we have had the opportunity to make so many different friends the past couple years. I'm sure we will make even more and we will always be thankful for the ones we have.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. Facebook. Yes, I am thankful for Facebook. :) Facebook has made it super easy to keep in touch with all the friends we have made. There have been times where we have moved away from somewhere, and then gone back to live, or just to visit, and it feels like we never left because we have been able to keep up with our friends lives through facebook. It's nice to share pictures with friends, and be able to get on and send a quick message.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
7. Charleston. I know that we don't live there anymore, but I'm just happy we had the opportunity to live there twice. I will find a way to get back there again someday. Hopefully sooner rather than later. I miss Charleston every day, but just knowing that I have found a place I truly love makes me happy. We always are talking about going back there to live some day so that gives me something to look forward to. Until then, we will just have to visit when we can!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
8. Our house. I am so happy that we finally actually own the house we are living in. After moving around so much and renting places from lots of different people, it's nice to know that we are homeowners now. I'm looking forward to painting more room, hanging pictures, and making it our own.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
9. A handy husband! I'm so glad that Korey likes trying to fix things, and he likes knowing how things work. It definitely comes in handy! He childproofed the house for Konnor, he changes are car oil, and with the help of the neighbor he moved our pellet stove upstairs so we could have lots of heat this winter without paying a million dollars for propane! He does so many other things and I am thankful for him!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
10. Chloe + Isabel. I recently started selling Chloe + Isabel jewelry and I love it!! I've been looking for something to do to earn a little extra money and this is perfect. I love the jewelry and I love how supportive the whole community is. I don't feel pressure to sell anything, and I can do it on my own time. It's given me something to do for myself during the day, and I love sharing all the fun jewelry they have with everyone! <a href="http://www.chloeandisabel/boutique/kristyw">www.chloeandisabel/boutique</a><a href="http://www.chloeandisabel/boutique/kristyw" target="_blank">/kristyw</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
11. Running. I took a long break from running recently, which I of course regret. Each time I take a break from running, its so hard to get back into it. I just yesterday ran again for the first time in about 3 months! What was I thinking?? 3 months?? It wasn't a super long run, but it felt good to actually make myself get out there and do it. There are a lot of days that I feel like crap when I'm running and I ask myself why I am doing it. But there are also days where I'm running and I love it and I tell myself that I could just keep running forever. I love signing up for races and training for them. I love the great feeling of accomplishment when I complete a race! I still have a goal to some day run a half marathon in all 50 states, but I need to start running again more consistently if I ever want to reach that goal!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
12. Konnor's mess he leaves all over the living room floor. I know this is a weird thing to be thankful for, but I am. Every time I see that mess it reminds me that we have a healthy and happy little boy. It also reminds me that Korey is a wonderful father, who pushes down his own desire to have a clean, perfect, organized living room, in order to let his son have a fun, happy, toy throwing day :) We do however at least pick most of the toys up at the end of the day and throw them in the pack'n play where they wait for Konnor to throw them all back out in the morning while he waits for his breakfast!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
13. My health. I am thankful every day that I am healthy. I rarely get sick and I don't have any major health issues. I hope that I can stay healthy throughout my life. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
14. Cooking. Now that we live in a small town again and there aren't as many restaurants and fast food places nearby we have been cooking a lot more. I don't always love cooking, but it has been fun looking up recipes and finding new meals to try cooking. Korey and I both take turns cooking, and we also cook together. We've been eating out a lot less which is great because it's healthier and it saves money!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
15. Our Local Library. I love going to the library. I have loved going to the library since I was a little kid. I have my parents to thank for that. I remember going to the library when I was little and picking out books for them to read to me. They were always reading as we were growing up, and so because of that I love reading now. We read to Konnor before bed every night and I try and read to him a couple times a week during the day also. Konnor and I go to the library at least once a week to pick out new books to read to him, and books that I can read for myself. Our library also has programs for babies and toddlers. We signed Konnor up for the first session and he loved it. We will be signing him up again in February!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
16. Holidays. During holidays we usually get to see family and everyone is in a happier mood! It doesn't matter what holiday it is, although I do enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas the most!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
17. Vacations! Going on vacations even if they are a small weekend trip somewhere is something that is important to us. I am so thankful that Korey loves to travel as much as I do, and that we find ways to save the money and make these vacations happen. Even if it means that it takes a couple years to save up to make some of the bigger trips happen. There are so many places I want to go some day. I hope that we are always able to travel and that we get to take Konnor on lots of vacations big and small!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
18. Coffee. I resisted being a coffee drinker for a long time. I know it's probably not the most healthy habit to have, but it sure does help after those long nights when Konnor is up for 3 hours or more!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
19. This blog. I started this blog over a year ago after we found out I was pregnant. We didn't want to tell too many people right away and so we created this blog to share with our close friends and family who knew. Now I just enjoy having the blog to write what I want, share pictures of Konnor, and to still let family and friends know what is going on in our lives. Hopefully some day I'll go back and read all these posts and be able to remember all the great times we've had!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
20. Other Moms. My mom, my mother-in-law, friends that are moms, and moms I don't even know! It's always nice to have other moms around so you can ask them questions, talk about kid things, and give some advice of your own. I know I'm a better mom because I have so many other mothers to look up to and to ask for advice when I need it!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
21. Konnor's love for music. He loves all kinds of music. This means I can play anything I want in the car and he is usually pretty happy with it. His favorite songs aren't "wheels on the bus" or "twinkle twinkle" (although he does enjoy those), but instead they are "Home" by Phillip Phillips and the "Cup Song". He's loved the "Home" song ever since he was little. When he would scream in his car seat all we had to do was put this song on and he would settle down most days. Even now when he gets a little cranky all we have to do is turn this song on and it usually does the trick.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
22. Lazy weekend days. It's so nice some weekends to just sit around and not do much except play with Konnor and the dogs, watch movies, read a book and nap. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
23. Sweatpants! They are super comfy and now that I am at home most of the day I wear them ALL the time! I'm sure Korey is getting sick of seeing me in sweatpants! (Sorry Korey). </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
24. Laughter. I love hearing Konnor's laugh. I also love seeing other people laugh because of Konnor. Everyone who meets Konnor loves him. He's almost always happy and his laugh is contagious! Korey and I definitely smile and laugh a lot more now that he is around!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
25. Books. I enjoy reading and always have. I love finding a good book and letting myself get lost in the story. I hope that Konnor enjoys reading some day as much as I do!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
26. Movies. Korey and I have always had fun going to see movies together. Now that we have Konnor we don't get to go to see movies as often as we used to. We still like to rent movies though, and we also like watch movies that we own, and occasionally we are lucky and get to go see a movie in the theater.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
27. My Smartphone. I like how easy it is to take a picture, look something up, call someone, and so much more. When I was up all hours of the night feeding Konnor, I loved having my phone to read a book, or look up answers to the million questions I had about babies. Now I use my phone almost every day to take pictures of Konnor. It's so nice to always have a camera with me!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
28. Warm Weather. It's not warm right now, but when it is warm it makes me very happy. I love Summer and sunshine. I like going to the beach and being outside all day in the warm sun. I enjoy running when its nice out, and going for walks with Konnor. I can't wait until the summertime and I hope that we get to live somewhere close to the beach again some day!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
29. Sleep! I love to sleep :) I don't get as much sleep as I used to, but I get plenty. I probably got more sleep than I needed before! There are also nights that I get very little sleep depending on if Konnor is up a lot. I am very thankful though for the nights I can fall asleep quick and get a full night of uninterrupted sleep. But honestly.... those nights I get to be up with Konnor for a few extra hours aren't always so bad. (It just stinks when they happen several nights in a row!)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
30. YOU. Whoever you are reading this right now, I am thankful for YOU! I'm glad that people actually take the time to read what I have to write. Even if it is pointless and boring sometimes. So Thank you!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well there's 30 things I am thankful for! Hopefully you were able to make it through all 30! I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and I hope you take the time to think about all that you are Thankful for right now in your life!</div>

Wow... I didn't realize it had been about two weeks since I last posted anything! I guess we haven't done anything very interesting to write about :) Since I just have a bunch of different thoughts, I figured I'd do another random post!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First off I started selling Chloe + Isabel jewelry. A friend of ours started selling the jewelry and when she was here visiting she brought some to show me! I loved all of it, and everything else she told me about the company! For the past few months I have been considering becoming a merchandiser for a direct sales company but wasn't sure what company I wanted to work with. I started researching a bunch of different ones to see what their requirements were, what incentives they had, how much profit you make, what they charged, and so on. Chloe + Isabel just seemed like the best fit. They have a great product and everyone I've talked to with the company has been super helpful! I don't have any requirements I have to meet, but there are incentives if I sell a certain amount each month if I want to try and earn them. I don't have to pay anything after the initial kit I bought, which is great since some of the companies I looked into started eventually charging you to have a website. The only downfall I have seen so far, is that I like so much of the jewelry it's going to be hard to not spend all the money I earn buying jewelry! :) If you want to go check out any of the jewelry Chloe + Isabel has just go to my site<a href="https://www.chloeandisabel.com/boutique/kristyw" target="_blank"> here.</a><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next up is Konnor's crazy sleeping (or I should say lack of sleeping). For the past 5 nights Konnor has been waking up and staying awake for at least 3 hours, and one night he was up for 4 hours. I have no idea why he is waking up. Most of the nights he wakes up crying but is okay once we pick him up. Some nights though he is cranky the whole time he is awake and seems uncomfortable. So many things have changed for him lately, so I have no idea what is causing this. He has started walking. He walks all over the place without our help and is pretty good at it! He also is getting at least one tooth that we can see, but he doesn't let us look long enough to tell if there are more coming in. On top of all that, he also switched to whole milk when he turned one. So I don't know if any of these things are messing up his sleep, or if its something else entirely. I've given up trying to guess. We have a doctors appointment today (unfortunately it's for another shot) and I plan to ask them what they think might be causing it. I just don't know what to do when he is awake. Three hours is such a long time! I try rocking him, but he either just lays there and still stays awake or he cries and arches his back and acts uncomfortable. The same thing happens if I try and hold him and bounce or walk around. The past two nights I've eventually brought him downstairs and let him walk around and eventually he gets tired again. Luckily the past two nights we have put him to sleep early and he's woken up by 10 and then is back asleep by 1 or 2 and sleeps until 9 so I've been getting some sleep. Konnor however is still not getting the amount of sleep he should. During the day he acts normal. He doesn't fuss and he takes great naps. Hopefully this phase will eventually stop, or we will figure out what is causing it. I don't see it getting better any time soon though since he gets another shot today and then we head home to family for the weekend. He never sleeps well when we go home. Korey has been helping as much as he can, but during the week I try and let him sleep since he has to go to work and I can always take a nap the next day. During the weekend though we were both up most of the night!<br />

Thanksgiving! We are so happy to get to spend Thanksgiving with family. We will get to eat a ton of food, and we get to also celebrate Konnor's birthday again with our family. The trip should be interesting. As usual we will have to pack the car full with all of our stuff, Konnor's stuff and the dogs and their stuff. Lots of "stuff"!! :) Then when we come back home we will have even more because I'm sure Konnor will get some birthday presents!! Luckily Korey is a wonderful packer and always manages to fit everything in! The other part of the trip that could be interesting is the crappy weather. We are only supposed to have rain here, but for some of our trip there will most likely be snow. I am not a fan of snow and I really hate driving in it. I'm kind of bummed there will be snow. Korey is of course very excited for the snow. I wouldn't mind it for Christmas, but I'd prefer a nice, warm, snow-free Thanksgiving. Oh well. Konnor is going to need some warmer clothes and some boots, and gloves!</div>

Christmas presents are next. I had a hard enough time trying to figure out what to get Konnor for his birthday and now we have to turn around and figure out what to get him for Christmas! We've purchased a few things already, but there are a couple more things we want to get him. I'm hoping he has more fun opening Christmas presents than he did his Birthday presents! He didn't seem interested at all in unwrapping his presents. He enjoyed playing with them when they were open, but I thought he would've had more fun ripping off the wrapping paper. Oh well :) </div>

The toys on the top row we have already purchased. I LOVE the superhero plush toys. We purchased Captain America and plan to at least get Spiderman too (since he's Korey's favorite) but we added ALL of them to our Konnor wishlist on Amazon so we remember to get them when we need other presents for him :) We also got the Batman and Joker Little People. He likes the Little People he has now, so we figured we'd add a few more fun ones! We decided to get him the keys because he always wants to hold ours, and then he proceeds to chew them. We figured it would be better if he had his own set to chew on safely! We're hoping to get him a couple books and the alphabet blocks at least, and maybe a few more gifts. It's definitely fun looking through toys and trying to decide what Konnor might like, but I think it will be a little easier next year when he can start telling us and showing us what he is interested in!</div>

I know I've said it already a million times, but how has it been a year already?? I'm not going to lie though, even though we have loved Konnor right from the start, the age he is at right now is probably the most fun so far. I love watching him walk (and fall down) around the living room. It's so fun to see how excited he gets when he realizes he is walking. Usually his excitement makes him walk even crazier though and he ends up falling down! He's also started "talking" a little. He likes to say "all done". It sounds a little more like "ahh done" and I'm pretty sure he has no idea what he means when he is saying it haha. He is definitely trying to repeat what we say to him a lot more now. I love when he walks over to us and babbles something and then just walks off again!</div>

We were super lucky to have some friends come visit for the weekend to help celebrate Konnor's First Birthday with us! They got here on Friday night and it was so nice to have them here! It felt just like old times! We've moved several times in the last 7 years and it's great to know that we have such great friends in so many of the places that we have lived. It's always wonderful when friends come to visit! On Saturday we hung out in the morning and then we went for a nice walk to a lighthouse and had a picnic lunch that consisted of some sandwiches from Subway that we ate at a park :) The park had a small zipline for kids and of course everyone had to try it out. Except for me unfortunately. I was already wearing Konnor in our <a href="http://www.amazon.com/ERGObaby-Organic-Baby-Carrier-Highland/dp/B00466I6SM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1384206140&sr=8-1&keywords=ergo+plaid" target="_blank">Ergo baby carrier.</a></div>

It was a little chilly, but the walk was beautiful and it was nice to just be spending time hanging out with our friends. "Uncle" Max even carried Konnor in the carrier for the whole walk (which made me extra happy when we were going uphill near the end of the walk)!</div>

After our walk we came back to the house to celebrate Konnor's Birthday! Before we ate, we let Konnor open his presents. I thought he would be more excited about tearing the wrapping paper off than he actually was. He didn't really seem to know what he was supposed to do. We helped him unwrap his gifts and he loved everything. He got some pretty cool gifts from Max, Sami and Jami. He's a lucky little boy, and we are extremely lucky to have such great friends! Korey made his delicious meatloaf for dinner and we also made Konnor a cake! He LOVED his cake. Korey did not want Konnor to have any cake before his first birthday, so this was the first time he had ever had any. We gave him a piece and he dug right in! There of course was cake EVERYWHERE :)</div>

It's his party...he can cry if he wants to</div>
Don't feel too bad for him though because he will get another birthday party with family that will involve more cake when we go home for Thanksgiving<br />
<br />
Overall it was a great weekend and a wonderful first birthday for Konnor! Thank you to everyone who sent Happy Birthday wishes and gifts! <br />
