Our little family of three had a fun Memorial Day Weekend.
We spend it just the way you should - with family, friends, and the first swim of the summer!!
Friday morning, Connor and I were home together.
Connor LOVES playing peek a boo with any empty box.
After getting lunch all over his clothes we checked the mail and sent Daddy a picture showing him that he had a package at home waiting for him.
Cecil came home early and we decided we should head to my parents to stay the night
because Cecil, my Dad and brother had a 7:30am tee time.
We stopped in downtown McKinney and ate at Spoons.
This was his face when I tried to get him to try something new. Stinker.

We had fried okra, Cecil got a Rueben and I had the grown up Grilled Cheese.
We liked it and will go back, but I think I'd try something new.
Do you see that table of men behind Connor? He wanted to be their best friend
all night and they were totally clueless. Sorry buddy.
After dinner we stopped and got some pies from Emporium Pies.
We got a Smooth Operator (chocolate with a pretzel crust) and a
PB crunch one that was seasonal.
But it was THE BEST!
We headed to Target to get Connor a puddle jumper and a couple groceries for my parents.
This was Connor's first time to sit in this large buggie and he was so proud of himself.
He did completely fall out once while we were waiting for Cecil in Starbucks.
But the rest of the time he loved it and acted like he
was in a parade - waving at all the other Customers.
We got to my parents house around 10 and were pretty tired.
We chatted for a little bit and then went to bed.
Connor slept in the crib just fine and I was super proud of him.
The next morning, Cecil and Dad headed to the golf course while Connor and I slept in a little.
Noah came into our room and told me (with tears in his eyes) that he didn't know why the big boys went to play golf without him. So Mom took him up to the country club to join.
Zay was just fine when he finally woke up staying home and playing with their new kittens.
(That have already disappeared - my parents have the worst luck with pets.)
Connor played for awhile before it was time for his nap.
I think I actually fell asleep first while he was watching the iPad.
He NEVER sleeps while we are lying down also so when I woke up I had to get a picture.
Too bad I didn't get myself in it. LOL
That afternoon we played outside a little and Noah pretended to be a Ninja warrior on the swing set while Connor looked on.
Do you like Noah's outfit?? That is what he thinks matching is. hahaha
I decided I wanted to take Connor swimming around 5.
Cecil had jumped in after golf and he said it was too cold for him.
We realized he is still a little too small for his puddle jumper so I just held him most the time.
I'm not going to lie - it was a little cold and Connor might have shivered a couple times.
Noah got in with us and we had fun playing.
Connor was content as long as he had something in his hand to play with,
but I wouldn't say he loved it.
He mostly tolerated it. :)
Thinking 'give me that ball back!'
We headed home after swimming and Connor was pretty happy to go straight to bed.
Sunday morning, Nana came over to visit us and Connor was happy!
He ADORES his Nana.
We went to Texas Roadhouse for lunch and Connor remembered he liked their rolls.
#duh
Connor finally took a nap and we headed to our friends' house when he woke up.
Once we were there we all got in the pool and it was a little cold again.
Cecil took Connor down the slide and was careful to not get his head wet.
Again, he didn't love it, he didn't hate it. Just tolerated it.
After he was shivering I got out of the pool with him and we had a #parentsoftheyear moment.
Might show this to him when he is in college. ;)
This he LOVED. He was super proud of himself.
Cecil wanted him to get dressed right away, though.
We put on a dry diaper and Connor strutted around.
I went inside to check on Miss Kaylee and she was awake so I brought her outside.
Connor was not happy to see me holding another baby. uh-oh.
But once she was in her bouncer he warmed up to her.
He even picked up her paci and put it back in her mouth. :) True love
Look at these buddies.
John was telling Connor to "BACK OFF" LOL
Cecil took Connor to the trampoline, but I don' think he was that excited about it.
What he was excited about - their dog, Jacques!!!!
He was OBSESSED.
Jacques was a champ too and put up with Connor's hits and hugs and chasing and holding.
I rewarded Jacques with a hamburger so I think it was fair in the end.
This was seriously the highlight of Connor's night.
Later, Cecil showed up like this.
And then this. :)
After bidding Jacque Adieu, we headed home around 11:30 and all went to bed.
We pretty much spent Memorial Day like this:
And then like this:
It was a nice relaxing day at home. And with that we wrapped up May!
