Yoga!

A couple weeks ago after one of my yoga classes my yoga teacher told me about this contest that yoga journal was doing and told me she thought I should enter.  Basically you just take a picture of you doing a yoga pose and enter in the contest to win a trip to San Fransisco to be on the cover of the magazine.  So after Connor's birthday party, Matt and Abbey stuck around to help me with the pictures.  We took a few at the house and then a few outside.  Here are some of the pics.


It came down to the last two pics and in the end I went with this one.  The contest is still going on and we will find out the final 5 on April 21st.  Wish me luck :)

Shara's 30th

After Connor's birthday on Saturday we got to go out to help Shara celebrate her 30th birthday.  We had dinner at Trudy's and then headed to the Broken Spoke for some country dancing.  It was lots of fun with our best friends.  Mark even danced a few times, which I just loved.  It reminded me of Taos and going to barn dancing when I was growing up.  We love you Shara, happy birthday!!!

Connor is ONE!

I can't believe Connor is one.  This past year has just flown by.  We had a party on Saturday.  He was a little overwhelmed at first.  He retreated over to his chair and just kind of watched everyone for a little while but after a bit he warmed up and was ready to party.  On Tuesday he had his one year well check. He was 23 pounds which was in the 50th percentile, he was 31.75 inches long which was in the 95th percentile and his head was 47 cm which was in the 75th percentile.  He is healthy and happy.  He has 4 teeth and is starting to walk.  He is very cautious about walking he can stand for really long periods of time and he just isn't sure about the walking part.  He is still very mellow.  He LOVES his big brother more then anything.  They really are best friends and love to play together.  He is a great eater. He isn't very interested in baby food.  He loves to feed himself.  His favorite food is definitely macaroni and cheese.  He is starting to sign and try to communicate with us.  We love you so much Connor, happy birthday!


This was his birthday invitation.

He wasn't too sure what to do with the cake, but he found the cookies that I used to make the ears and that was his favorite part.

Connors First Haircut

Connor got his first haircut last Thursday.  It was getting so long in the back I decided to have it done before his party on Saturday.  Judy and Joel were in town for his birthday so they came with us.  He did really good.  He wasn't too sure about it at first but they put on a Micky Mouse cartoon and he was good to go.  I can't believe how grown up he is!


Before Pics. 


Getting ready.

Say good by mullet!


Looks like such a little man.
