Connor continues to express his love towards his sister. This weekend he actually tried to play with her. Up until now he has just wanted to hold her but Saturday he was entertaining her. Addison was sitting in her bouncer while I was making lunch in the kitchen. Connor came running through and when he noticed his sister awake he stopped and sat down next to her. He kept saying baby and smiling real big then tried to hold her hand! I ran and grabbed the camera and managed to capture some of the moment. Addie just stared back adoringly, it was precious.
Saturday was spent cleaning as we had another house showing that afternoon. We haven't had to deal with this since we had Addison but unfortunately it looks like we're in the market for another buyer. Nothing official yet as our house is still under contract but it doesn't look good. If anything it turned out to be a great excuse to get some house cleaning done!
Sunday started like most other Sundays - with pancakes! It's sort of become a tradition in our household. After deciding on pancakes Connor went running into the kitchen. I assumed to help Mommy make them but as I entered the kitchen he threw his hand up in the air and yelled, "No Mama, I got this!" LOL He is too much! He thinks he can do everything now. I just laughed and told him we would make them together and he was cool with that. He sat up on the counter top and helped pour in the ingredients and stir it all together.
We spent the rest of the day outdoors. Connor enjoyed his pool while we relaxed with Addie in the shade. Later we went to a friends house for a BBQ where Addison got to meet a lot of our friends. It really was a gorgeous day to be outside. I wish we had this weather all summer long. I'm not looking forward to the humidity. Before we went to our friends house we gave Addison a bath. Normally Connor is already in bed when we do this. Since we wasn't we asked if he wanted to help. He jumped at the opportunity! He ran to get the soap (he runs everywhere these days) and then wanted up on the counter to help. He mostly watched but he did wash her feet for us. He was so proud of himself when we were done.
This week Aunt Nancy is coming down from Chicago to visit. Connor is going to be so excited to have her in the house!He loves his Aunt Nan-knee :) We have a busy Mother's Day weekend planned. Nancy is just the first of our many visitors to come this weekend. We have a 1st birthday party to go to on Saturday and then Connor has a weekend full of family members. Both sets of grandparents will be here and all of his uncles too! Everyone will leave on Sunday except for my mom who will be spending the week with us. I can't wait, I've got big plans for Bebe - let's hope she is rested up and ready for a fun-filled week! :) Click here for a few more pictures from our weekend.
