Zoolights


Last weekend, we went to the Phoenix Zoo for Zoolights - Sean and I have taken Conner there twice in the past, but didn't get a chance to go last year, so he doesn't really remember it. During the winter, they open certain sections of the zoo at night and decorate it with thousands of lights. We got there right as it opened and were waiting for my Mom, Amy, and Bailey to get there. We walked around half of the open path and Conner just wasn't having any fun at all - no matter how hard we tried or how fascinated he really was with the lights. However, as soon as Bailey got there, it suddenly became fun. They took off walking along the path holding hands! I'm so glad that they have each other. Conner gets so bored as an only child and I guess sometimes Mommy and Daddy just aren't fun enough. In the end, I think we all had a great time and Conner had a blast!

New Year's Bike Ride


Conner recently learned to ride his bike (without training wheels)! For someone who is so picky about getting dirty, I never thought he's be such a daredevil! He likes to ride on the bumpy side of the road, ramp over small hills of dirt, and goes straight through the mud puddles. He's already talking about saving up his money so that he can buy a ramp...yes, a ramp! I'm not sure that I can handle this! We went for a long bike ride around our boon docks neighborhood on New Year's. It was a lot of fun and it's great to have an exercise partner!
