Wine festival

Our good friend Ben came in for the weekend and we drove up to Fredericksberg and sampled some Texas wineries. Some were very good and others well, were not. All in all we had a great time! We had lunch at this fantastic little cheese shop, they had these amazing sandwiches that had imported cheese on them! (YUMMM) All in all we had a great time! Here are some pictures from the festival.

Connor and friends

Today we did some house cleaning and straightening up, I guess Connor saw me cleaning so much that he decided to clean too! He gathered his toys from the floor and stacked them on his bed! I thought that it was so cute that I had to take a picture. When I got done taking my picture I asked him "are you playing with your friends?" he told me "yea" I said "do you love your friends?" he responded with "a-do "I love you" friend mommy" and got up and hugged and kissed them! The picture was taken on my phone so it isn't that great, but you get the idea!

Lost Maples

Yesterday we headed out to Lost Maples State park, it's just outside San Antonio. If you've never been and you live some what close you should head out there, it is absolutely beautiful! The leaves were just beginning to change, it was really nice to see some kind of Autumn in texas! The hill country is just amazing, the hills, trees, meadows, and streams! Yesterday was the perfect day to head out there - the weather was just amazing, bright sunshine and crisp cool air!
Connor really enjoyed the park, he ran around playing with his mom and dad, he lead the way half the time! We also discovered that Connor's favorite activity is throwing rocks in the stream (I think that we did that for about 2 hours)! Connor also got the chance to climb on some small (or in his case BIG) rocks!
Connor really had a great time, he was very well behaved and didn't want to leave at all when it was time to go! I have a feeling that this little boy loves the outdoors just as much as his mom and dad, we can't wait to take him camping when he's older!
Here are some pictures of all the fun and the beautiful scenery!

Hanging out with Dad!

These pictures are a few weeks old, I got a bit behind updating the blog!

Connor and his dad enjoyed a nice evening out at the park! Connor is finally able to really understand how things work and how to climb up on things with no help from mom and dad! At this outing Connor and his dad just hung out, ran all over the place, and hung upside down! They had a blast together!
Jared- you are such an amazing father, I knew you would be but you have far exceeded my expectations! I know that Connor loves you so much, after all if I'm taking the pictures who's he going to play with? :)






Connor and his dad- doing what they do best, looking at airplanes!

Star Bucks

Connor has learned a new game, he eats your nose, eyes, ears, toes, I know it sounds gross but it really is cute! He grabs your nose and acts like he's putting it in his mouth he even makes the sound like he's chewing and swallowing! Sometimes he will give it back and other times well your out of luck! :) Here is a short video! The quality of the video isn't that great, I took it with my phone!

night night potato head

I don't have time to really blog right now but I thought that I would share this cute story!

Connor is so cute, he just gave his Mr. Potato head a kiss and put him in his bed under the covers and said night-night potato head! Seriously isn't that just adorable!
