more basketball

 the boys love doing crafts

Connor is getting so tall that the pants we bought at the beginning of the school year are already starting to get too short.  We went shopping and bought him some new clothes.  Kaiden loves these little plastic dolls my grandma made for me when I was younger... so Connor and I decided to get him another "baby."  I picked the Jake and the Nether Land doll.  Connor picked the pink baby doll that laughs when you squeeze it.  Kaiden likes the pink one Connor picked better.

New beds

Connor's friend, James had a Nerf party.  10 little boys with Nerf guns and endless amounts of energy!

 Kaiden pooped in his potty on 2-11 again.  He's been watching dad and big brother and has decided he needs to stand up to pee now.  He hasn't actually peed in his potty yet, but he goes through the moves... holds his penis, arches his back and aims.

 Jason and I have been contemplating getting a King size bed for a while.  We finally decided to go with a King size memory foam mattress.  Originally we found a Tempurpedic that we liked, but decided to try a similar one from Costco instead.  The first Costco mattress (in the picture) was way too firm, but the second was amazing!   Unfortunately that means we need a new headboard though.  I love my bedroom set, but we can't find the same headboard in king size.  We gave Connor the choice of keeping his full size bed or getting our old queen size double pillow top mattress with slay bed.  Our queen mattress is still super comfortable.  We just wanted a bigger size so we could stretch out more.  Connor chose the queen with slay bed.  His full is currently in our basement as a spare bed for guests, until Kaiden is old enough for it.

Every Saturday is a basketball game!

Chuck E Cheese

Connor has a 4 day weekend... so, I let him pick something fun to do.  He chose Chuck E Cheese.  Both boys had a blast.

 Kaiden especially liked this little train ride.  He must have rode this like 6 times.

Skiing 3rd time

Connor's 3rd ski lesson at 49 degrees north!  He's doing great and loves to ski!!  Jason and I got a chance to test out our new ski gear.  Connor's lesson comes with rental already, so he'll have to wait until next time to try out his new gear.

 After his 2 hour lesson we took a lunch break before heading back out for more skiing.

 I can't believe how fast Connor is on ski's!  Not only is he super fast, but he's also really good at turning, snow plowing, stopping....  geesh!  I had a hard time trying to ski in front of him so I could get pictures and video from the front.  This kid is fast!  Goofy kid... every time I would get close to being in front of him he would say "Hi Mom, bye Mom" and away he would go.

 

 After skiing we went back to Grandma and Grandpa's.  Kaiden had fun playing all day and sung us all a song with his microphone.  He loved playing with Grandma and Grandpa.. and Polly!  He loves Polly.

When we got home Kaiden pooped in his little potty for the first time!  Yeah!  Great job little buddy!

basketball

Connor decided to play basketball again this year.  His team name is "Bobcats."

 Kaiden has a new "cheese" face... which looks more like a snarly growl face?!?
