A few tidbits from the past

Since I have been horrible at blogging lately, I just wanted to share a few highlights of the past several months. We took a trip to Parma to visit Kevin's parent's a couple months ago. I didn't take very many pictures on this trip, except a few when we all went on a little walk.


Cannon and Mesa (Cannon adores Mesa, and has already become her pestering little brother that has to be with her every second when she is with us.)



Doing what he does best, playing with rocks, sticks, and dirt.

CANNON"S FIRST HAIRCUT!
We gave Cannon a haircut a couple months ago because it was basically turning into a major mullet! I was scared to death because I didn't want to cut his curls, but they have already grown back, and he pretty much has his mullet/receding harline hairdo again. We will probably be giving him another haircut in the next few days.




You know your white trash when your kid has a tail.

Kevin went through some hair changes himself, what do you think?










Don't be fooled by these pictures, Cannon is NOT potty trained, and is not even close to being potty trained. We just got him a potty seat and a little step, but he never want's to use it, and only does when we sit him on it and tell him to try and go. Any suggestions/tips/advice? I was hoping he would be somewhat trained by the time this next baby comes but I don't think that will happen!



Sorry, this picture is sideways. But this is what Cannon would do every night before we ended up getting him a big bed. A couple months ago he would climb out of his crib at nap time and at night, and then go set up camp in the corner of his room and just sleep on the floor. So we ended up getting him a big bed, and he loves it! He stays in it and sleeps all night!





Cannon loves motorcycles (thanks to Kevin). Sometimes Kevin will give him rides around the backyard. Cannon loves it, and feels so special!






Last month we got to see a bunch of the Bake's because they were in town for Kimberly and Ryan's wedding. We had everyone over to our house after the wedding, so I decided to celebrate Cannon's birthday at the same time.
Cannon has been loving train's lately so I made him a train birthday cake.

We also celebrated Larisa and Kari's birthdays! (Yes, that is smoke from the trick candles, which I didn't know they were!)

1. I'm still sad I didn't get to see you guys when you came to Parma. Someday.
2. I have to admit, I think a no-go on Kevin's stache. Sorry Kevin.
3. Good luck on the potty training. I hate to say it but that was the worst part of toddlers for me. Hope you fair better than I did.

I really wish we lived closer!! We just went to Parma for memorial day - just missed you guys. Seeing Kevin and Cannon on the motorcycle is just like Jared and Emmett. And I love the pic of Cannon giving Emmett a hug! I've started thinking about potty training as well - I'm probably going to start at the end of June when Ky is done with school so we can sit at home for a solid week and get it done. Miss you :)

So fun to catch up! It has been so long since we've seen you guys and I loved checking out your fun pictures. Looks like a great weekend in Parma. Hopefully we can all hook up one of these times. Love you guys!
