Snorkler

For Easter Connor received a new snorkling set! Here he is trying it out- in the bathtub, obviously. He later took it to the pool.



Happy snorkling dreams!

Connor's First Prom

Don't worry, this is not his date- she's a Teacher Corps family friend Connor's known since he was a baby. As a teacher at the school, she was a chaperone for the dance.

Connor and Riley

My photo editing software is elsewhere at the moment- sorry about the red-eye, we'll fix that later. Here are Connor and Riley one afternoon when they were actually getting along! Riley is just a few months older than Connor, and lives two doors down. They are frequent playmates.




Button-Down

A few weeks ago Connor insisted on choosing his own attire for school. Initally he wanted to wear dress slacks, socks, and shoes. We made a compromise, and put this shirt on over a long-sleeved henley. (I made him hang up the oxford once at school, for comfort's sake.)

With a fresh haircut and crisp white Ralph Lauren oxford, I think he looks very grown up. Here he is, explaining something. He is always explaining something ....

Planting Seeds

Several weeks ago we planted flower and vegetable seeds. Eventually we will transplant these to the outdoors. Up until last week, it was still too cold. Maybe soon. So far, we have baby lettuce, cherry tomato, and zinnia plants.
