Connor's Heaven



Connor has a Big Trucks board book that he has completely memorized. He will point out backhoes, dump trucks, tankers, mixers, excavovos (excavators), rollers, cranes, loaders, etc. while driving in the car. On Saturday morning while I went shopping Uncle Jared took Connor to the job site and let him drive a couple of his favorites! I wish I could have been there, but here are some pictures to see my little man at work!

35 weeks

Mac knew I was in need of a little outing before baby Burton arrived, so this past weekend Mac took Connor and I on a little date to the city (SLC). We enjoyed staying at Uncle Jared and Aunt Jill's house and were even able to fit in a date night on Friday! We all went out to eat at one of my favorites, Olive Garden, and then Mac and I were off to the theater! We saw the musical "Curtains" and thoroughly enjoyed it, while Jared and Jill babysat Connor. Saturday I went shopping for Christmas gifts and the last odds and ends needed for our baby girl, while Jared took Mac and Connor to go play on some pretty fun equipment (rollers, dump trucks, excavators, etc). To say the least Connor was in heaven! We'll be posting pictures soon of this adventure. This is my 35 week preggo picture that we took just before going on our date! I think I'm growing at about the same rate as I did with Connor, so we'll see what happens these next few weeks!

Camping on Diamond!




A few weeks ago we met Mac's family up on Diamond Mountain for some fishing and camping. Mac and Coy had a very successful fishing trip, catching up to 15 fish each! Connor loved being in the outdoors, going on hikes, looking for elk, and having Grandma read him bedtime stories. I forget how relaxing it can be to get out in the fresh air and enjoy each other's company without any distractions.

On a side note the Burton household has been busy getting ready for baby to arrive. I made her a crib bumper with my new sewing machine (with the help of a great friend), learned how to make hair bows, and organizing, organizing, and more organizing. By the time she arrives (Thanksgiving) we should be ready!
