Crazy Connor

My big, little Con-Man.  He's growing up so fast!!  He LOVES kindergarten! Even though he is one of the youngest in the class, he can count to 100+,  knows all the Kinder and 1st grade sight words and is doing phenomenally well reading.  By the end of Kindergarten, they are supposed to be on level 3 and he is already on level 5 & 6 and his teacher feels confident that he'll be at level 8 by the end of the year.  He likes to sound out and write notes, sentences, etc. and even though 99% of the time they are really misspelled, he at least is trying. (Side note, I know this blog is all about Connor, but Reid knows most of the Kindergarten sight words and is starting to read as well!)

A couple of months ago, Connor was invited to a birthday party at a yogurt shop.  Here he is with his friend, Brendon.

 This is the birthday girl, Apple.  She has a crush on Connor.  Once when I was at school she came up to Connor and told him he was handsome.  Connor, of course, says gross and runs the other way!
 Check out the drawing Apple did of she and Connor. (sorry can't get it to straighten)
 I wish I knew how to upload videos because last month, Connor learned how to ride his bike and is now riding all over the place, and at full speed! So the night he learned how to ride we let him choose what was for dinner and pizza was the winner!
My Connor, how flexible you are!
I had lunch with him at school one day and he was being silly.
Here are his school pictures!  So handsome! :)
 Occasionally I find my phone with pictures of the boys they take of each other without me knowing here.  For example:
When he grows up he wants to be a policeman because they are cool he says.
Having lunch together at school. I try to eat with him once or twice a month, but am up there much more often to volunteer.
Showing off the Halloween shirt I made the boys.
Connor, you need to brush your teeth!
 He helped me make these spider oreos for his Halloween party at school.

He enjoyed carving a pumpkin this year.

The finished project (thanks to Daddy!)

Doesn't everyone take a bath with their goggles on?!?
He was trying to figure out how the water drains!
 Mimi had lunch with Connor when she came for a visit!
Connor and his buddy, Mason, who Connor says is the goodest in the class. (Behavior wise)
 Check out that spike!
 He loves to cuddle and snuggle with me, but it's rare that he falls asleep on me anymore.  I cherish these moments!

Oh how I love my CON-MAN!!
