Ok so it's been a while since I've blogged... I've been super busy!!
Not only do I have an adorable, fun, engergetic, toddler to take care of, I've been working two jobs and we are finally buying a house!!

Connor turned two just over two months ago and we have just gotten around to getting his pics done:) Isn't he cute! He loved his Dr. Suess themed birthday party he still wears his hat and sleeps with his cat every night.
It's amazing how much he has changed not only over the past two years but in the last few months. He knows his colors and shapes and is talking more and more every day (thank god, I can't stand the whining!) He has come up with some cute names for people too when he can't say their names. He calls the little girl Kaya that I nanny for KyKy and every morning he asks "going see KyKy?" He really adores her which is great since he has to be with her 4 days a week:)
I believe on Connor's birthday I had posted something around the lines "bring it on terrible twos" what was I thinking. Although things have gotten better in the past few weeks, I couldn't help but feel bad that Connor seemed more upset about everything and all I wanted to do was pull my hair out! Today has been a wierd day he's wanted to be on his own playing with his animals in his crib... Hence why I'm able to sit down and blog:)
We have moved into a new era of Elmo (he's kinda over Dora now depite me encouraging it since I think it's more educational) he only likes the super babies episode (thank goodness we have tivo). I guess Elmo is more boyish so when he wants Elmo stuff it's red instead of the pink Dora stuff. His other new obsession is building forts (that's always fun to hear him say). So between him building and destroying his forts that is enough to keep me pretty busy....
But also watching two kids has kept me pretty busy too... So Gary and I had disccused that I would start looking for a second nanny job in June so that I would be for sure working full time come September so that we could start saving more to buy our house in March 2012 (wait were buying a house next month). After much searching and being turned down family after family because I had to bring Connor with me, I came across an add of a family that was willing to do a nanny share!!! They are perfect, super nice, fun loving family, who has a little girl the same age as Connor (she turns two in Sept) and they love that she has been picking up on words from Connor!! Right now I still watch Henry on Mondays sometimes then I work with Kaya Tues, Thrus, Fri, Sat... Come September I'll be watching Henry Mon/ Tues and Kaya Wed-Sat (at least I'm off by 3 every day with Kaya)... So busy busy busy is what we are:) Needless to say I'm looking forward to Sunday (Zoo in the morning with Steph and date night with the hubby!)

House plans were set for March 2012 until after Connor's birthday my parents asked us when we were moving out... So we did some housing research and actually found how much it had dropped in the past 6 months and found the perfect home for us!! It's a little townhome 3 bed 2 1/2 bath & loft in Windswept waters near Damascus. Connor will be going to the new Vern Duncan School and we coudln't be happier with the nieghborhood set up! Closing date is now set to August 22nd a week before our 2 year anniversary! So now it's been the fun part looking at all the stuff that is going to go in it!
Well now we are headed to the beach for the day to see my Aunt and Uncle who are in town! Have a wonderful day:)
