An Announcement from Garrett

Garrett started talking after he woke up from his nap and I was able to record this little gem.

Here's a transcript for those that don't speak Garrett:

I snuggle the baby.

We had a great party in the back yard and BeBe and Aunt Jenny came in town just to celebrate!

Garrett Update | March

March was a hard month in the Connorton house, Garrett and I caught a sinus infection and were really sick for about a week. The only silver lining to the illness was that our normally too-busy-to-cuddle toddler only wanted to be held. He and I stayed on the couch for 3 days sleeping and cuddling while he worked out his fever. He slept with us a few nights and Matt got plenty of snuggles as well.

He's all better now, fully recovered and back to his full-throttle energy level.

One morning I pulled out the baseball cap to see if it still fit, it's too small but he wouldn't let me take it off. He looks like such a big boy with it on!

I've been seeing a new chiropractor and Garrett's favorite thing is to move the dirt in the potted plants while I'm being treated. He'll also come and touch my back/neck/feet the same way the doctor does. He's a HUGE help.


Lastly, Garrett has a few Obama shirts and likes to pound his chest and say Obama! when he wears them. Wednesday I put him in his Hulk shirt and he kept telling me it was Obama, hilarious!

The Suite Life

Garrett Update | February

You may have noticed that the Daily Garrett has ceased. I've headed back to work 3x a week and it's harder to pull the phone out to take a photo without a tantrum from the boy - we've a bit of a narcissist on our hands all he wants to do is look at photos of himself when the phone appears...


Anyhow, all is well with us. We took a small family vacation this week to Newport Beach, Matt has a conference so we tagged along for a few days of family fun before it started. We're calling this the "Free Upgrade Trip" as we got a free seats for Garrett since the flights weren't full, the Westin upgraded us to a penthouse suite, we got into the Discovery Museum without paying (we were only there the last hour and the lady just waved us in). We had breakfast at the Ritz for the amazing view and got free valet parking... in short, it was AMAZING!

Here are a few photos from our trip.
