Happy Easter!

Saturday we went to the Township's Easter egg hunt.  


It was crowded and full of serious egg hunters and their children.  



Conor and one of the THREE eggs he found.


He was not impressed.


Then we went to Nana and Papa's.  The weather was beautiful so we played outside.  

Conor enjoyed the fort...



... and playing soccer with Maggie.




Uncle Brian taught Conor to play t-ball.



Looks like Conor is a southpaw.





Conor and Aunt Katie played with the screen door.





Conor was so tired he slept 12 hours last night without waking, which never happens!  Then today he took a three hour nap.  Today we hung out at home and played with all the cars the Easter bunny brought.

Happy Easter!

Jumping

Conor has been trying to jump for a while, but only since this past weekend is he really getting any air.

Here he is in action:

Trikes!

Conor was given not one, but TWO tricycles by our neighbor.

The first one is still a little big and hard to pedal.



That's better! Pedaling still optional.




 



Tired of riding, time to push.


Tired of pushing, time to be carried.



Tired of everything. Time to go inside.

Discipline, part II, a play by Dada and Conor

INT. DINING ROOM. LATE MORNING.

A toddler climbs on a chair, up onto the table. His father dashes from the next room, removes him from the table, and sits him at the bottom of the stairs.

DADA
Conor, you're in time out for standing on the table.
Do we stand on the table?

CONOR
Yes.

DADA
No, we don't.

Brief pause, and Conor begins to pout.

DADA
Conor, do we stand on the table?

CONOR
(arms out)
Hug!

DADA
Conor, do we stand on the table?

CONOR
Yes...Mama...Hug!

DADA
Conor, do we stand on the table?

CONOR
No...Hug!

Time out ends and Dada gives Conor a hug.

Conor giggles and heads for the table.

---The End---
