Happy Easter and Birthday!

Easter Fun!

 

Connor Bench is 3 years old!  He continues to amaze me and is so much fun.  Unless you're in a hurry to get somewhere.  (Me thinks he inherited his dads doddler genes.)  He is silly, smart and such a sweet boy.

Walker fun

Chicago is a long ways away.  A 12 hour drive IF you can avoid traffic.  It's quite a bit longer that the 5 hour drive we had grown accustomed to from New Jersey.  Much to our delight, the Walkers were willing to make the long trek from Chicago to Virginia and we're so very glad they did.

Frying Pan Park is always a hit.

I think Lauren looks so much like Michelle here

Our house may have been a tad on the noisy side.  Davies had to throw these bad boys on to drown out Sarah, I mean, everyone.

We've been known to have ninja squirrels here in VA (ask Uncle Jared for more details)  so we went searching

and of course we had to stop and throw rocks in the water

The cousins had lots of fun together

 Except when Connor wouldn't hold Sarah's hand...

The hand grab.  Connor wanted nothing to do with this so he retreated his hand into his sleeve.

Sarah went searching for the hand

and was unsuccessful.  Sad.

Connor sure liked Andrew

and Sarah sure liked holding her little cousin.

4 month check up

Sierra had her four month check up and she's doing great.  She's currently 11 lb 14oz, 24 1/4 in long.  She is such a smiley baby.  All you have to do is look at her and she'll smile at you.

Somebody is hiding

 

 

One of my favorite outfits.  Thanks Aunt Karen.

saying good morning!

pretty cute pair

Sierra has lots of people who want to play with her, and she absolutely loves it.

Connor is realizing he can make Sierra smile now.  I would also like to point out how big his hand looks on her head.

Connor loves Marci's kids

I can't get enough of this smile

I go around the corner for 2 minutes...

...and look what happens.  Silly boy.

3 Months Old

Time for a 3 month photo shoot

You may have noticed there are fewer pictures of Connor lately.  It's not for lack of trying, he just isn't as will to cooperate for the camera lately.  I was able to get these not so great pictures by having Jared throw a ball as his head.
