So much fun

We have been a busy family! Labor day weekend we went to Champaign for an Illini game. The weather was HORRIBLE! So Craig and his uncle went to the game, me and the kids went shopping.  But we had a weekend away and everyone had lots of fun.  Connor had fun at Steak n Shake!

 This bug was on our window at the hotel the whole weekend, I am pretty sure it is a praying mantis.

Yes, he was laying like this on his own! I did not pose him.  He was waiting to go swimming.

 Grace is yelling lets go.

 Here is Connor and Great Grandma Ecker.  We stopped to see her on our way home.  Grace was to busy playing to stop for a picture!!

 I love these things, they make me think of Don Quijote.

Since it has been warm, Grace has been playing in the baby pool.  She splashes all of the water out, so I put Connor in with her.  They both LOVED it!

 I got picked to host a Fisher Price House Party, who cares  about all of the toys we got... WE GOT A BOX!!!!

I took the kids to see Elmo Makes Music. Grace loved it! Connor didn't know what to think!! He had so much fun though.  He was a trouper and stayed awake the whole time.  I think he is a cookie monster fan.  Grace still loves Elmo!

 She HAD to have cotton candy!

 Me and Connor!

Yummm puffs!

 Here is Grace in the car on our way to her first day of preschool in the 3s class.

 She is growing so quickly. She did pick her clothes by the way.
