Fourth of July weekend, my friend Sara and her little boy came to visit us. Usually, when we see them in Michigan, it is only for a few hours. Having three days with them was such a blessing!!
Connor is almost 3!! And the most active little boy I've ever met. Instantly, every piece of furniture in our home became a place to jump off of. His giggles filled our house within hours of their arrival and we missed them the moment they were gone.
Connor absolutely loved Sushi. Sushi did not return his affections. It was so cute to watch Connor chase Sushi and pet him gently. It took a lot of extra hands to make the below photo possible. I think Sushi stayed on his lap less than two seconds - so kudos to Eric for getting a picture!
We went to a CT Defender's baseball game (a generous man from our church donated the seats to our congregation). It rained off and on (as it has done in New England all summer) but we had a great time. I love Connor's smirk in this photo!
Connor learned how to get peanuts out of the shell while at the game.
And there was a double rainbow....
We also went to the aquarium. Here he is watching the Begula whale.
He was so brave and put his hand in the Ray tank and touched them as they went by.
The weekend went by so quickly and it feels like we don't have enough pictures to prove they were here. Life with a little boy is so full, busy, and completely worthwhile.
Being able to catch up with Sara was wonderful. The entire weekend, Eric did all the clean up after each meal, so she and I could just talk. And we talked and talked and talked. Email is a wonderful tool, but there is nothing like sitting down to a delicious BLT and chatting.
