4th of July

We had a great 4th of July! We started the morning at the Kirkland parade where Conner had a great time running up and down the side walk, as well as in and out of Time Out. I think Conner's highlight of the morning was popcorn. He has never had popcorn before, but he definitely does love it! My favorite part of the morning was being able to see all of my good friends and their families.

After the parade we headed home for naps for both Conner and Andrew. Luckily Conner took a long 3.5 hour nap and then we headed out to our friend Justin's house for a BBQ before fireworks. Conner was able to make some new friends and go out on a boat ride. We headed over to Kate and Matt's house a little later to wait for dark so that Conner could see his first fireworks. I wasn't sure if the noise would bother Conner or not, or even if he would be able to make it up late enough. Conner's normal bedtime is around 7:30 or 8:00 and we needed him to stay up to almost 10:00 to see the fireworks. He did better than I ever expected, he was not fazed at all by the noise and he madeit up to 10:30pm with the assistance of his binky! It was a great day spent with our favorite friends!
