In Case You Were Wondering

*Make sure you keep looking at older posts cuz I did a lot today and the last post I did was July 20th.

Going to Idaho this summer and thought I would need to stock up on Conner's allergy/asthma medications since there will be dogs and harvesting going on. So, at the allergists, they did the usual scratch tests (5 different groups- with eight individual scratches) on his back. He did great, just a little flinching with each group pressed in. We knew he was allergic to dogs but it looks like cats, feathers, and horses too.
The two big individual lumps here are his reactions to milk and eggs. No fun. Thought it might have disappeared for us...not so.



Here you can see the swelling from the animal dander.




Super Mish Mash


Tomatoes harvested from our plants yesterday.













Daddy does a project in the garage. If you know Josh, you know that this is not a normal thing for him...but guess what. He did amazing and I will show you a after photo in one of the next few blogs.




Conner's Conner safe birthday cake. Looks disgusting, I know, but it was actually pretty good. Kinda dense though.





Conner's coconut on the left and WoWos on the right. These they decorated at Conner's Luau pool party.




Stealing Cake


Wyatt gets busted stealing fingerloads of frosting from Conner's leftover birthday cake.




Last Day of Swim Lessons



I got someone to watch Wyatt and Emmett so I could go to Conner's last swim lesson with him alone. So glad I did this.
This is one place he is not timid. Having a pool at Nya Nya's and a pool at our complex has helped him to be comfortable in the water.


They wanted the kids to feel what it was like and to know what to do in case they ever fell in a pool somewhere fully clothed.




Immediate turn to the back for some air.













Check out the new TS3 trunks. He LOVES them...in 3D too!











Totally streamlined and looking at the bottom of the pool. Nice! He swam all the way across the pool (25 yrds) going from front to back.












Jumping in the deep end. Nothing new for Conner since he swims in the deep end at Nya Nya's all the time.
All done.

At the Park



We had a little time to kill while Conner was at camp so we went to the park right around the corner. It was nice that no one was there so I didn't have to try to keep track of Wyatt by picking him out of other kids.
It was a pretty cool park and WoWos enjoyed a little one on one with me.



I want to eat him.






















Last Day of SkyHawks Camp



The SkyHawks camp was every day for one week from 9:30-12:30 and they learned skills from soccer, basketball, and baseball.
His little partner here was his age too. Not sure how much they got done half the time in this drill.


"Hey Mom, why are you still here?"
Point and throw.







So close!



A little duck duck goose with water balloons as a treat for the last day of class. Overall, I think he really loved the class and had a lot of fun once he got into it. He was timid most days when I dropped him off and he stood on the sidelines for a few minutes until he felt more comfortable.





















Sittin' in the mush pot cuz he got caught.






Little Dudes


Emmett is eating baby food now and, as of last night when he bit me and held on, he is exclusively bottle fed.

Yes, Conner is still obsessed with Mushroomer. He is currently stuck on level 23 and since he can't get past it he just plays on some of the lower levels. I need to take the time to help him get through this level.


Here are the tiny sharp anti-breastfeeding culprits.
