MOM: yep, they sure can

CONNOR: bugs can't get in small m&ms

MOM: actually they can get in the package

CONNOR: well they can't get in DNA cause they can't even see DNA

OCD much?

This morning as Connor and Matt were on their way out the door, Connor says to Matt, "Wait Dad! I have to put this eyelash on my dresser!"

Earlier, when he saw a ziploc bag on our dresser, he picked it up. When Matt took it away from him, he got really concerned, "But DAD! There's AIR in that bag!"

7:10pm - Connor is put to bed
7:12pm - "I had a bad dream!"

"Hey Dad, I can lift up this fridge, watch."
(tries to pick up from the bottom)
"Ugh, this one must be glued."

"hey mom, i got an owie. there's a bandaid on my ribstage"

school update

Connor is doing great in school so far.  He's already ahead of the other kids with counting and knows a good majority of his popcorn words (the 100 most common words that pop up in kids books).  He's learning how to write all the letters of the alphabet, properly, too.  Each week he has a homework packet that he brings home on Monday and turns in on Friday.  The writing portion takes some time for him, but the rest of it he just breezes through.

He loves all the fun stuff he's learning and is really proud of all the things he knows. He even tells me all the time, "Did you know that I know everything, Mom?"  Must be nice. haha

photo blog

For those that don't know, Connor is a huge fan of taking pictures...and he's actually not too bad at it either. one day when i was messing around trying to make cake pops, Connor decided to take pictures to document the process.  Here are a few of his shots.
