Mr and Mrs Clayton Conn

I'm so happy for our friends Rebecca and Clayton. I first met Rebecca during a history class in college. I could have never imagined that it would lead to such an amazing friendship. Rebecca and i spent many of nights on the phone studying for Mr Haggamans essay tests. We also bonded over our cold walks to art class, were we had no friends except each other and single handedly failed the only male student in the class. Rebecca is one of those friends that everyone needs in their lives. I'm so luck to have her in my life. Thanks for all that you do. I look forward to all the new memories and firsts that our families will share.Mr and Mrs Clayton Conn

Last Weekend....

My very good friend Rebecca is getting married on 8-8-08. Therefore we had to celebrate in style by taking her for a night out on the town. We started by checking into the hyatt in Schaumburg. Jeni (maid of honor) and i decorated our hotel room and set up for the big night ahead. After all the girls checked in we gathered for presents, we dressed Rebecca out and headed out for dinner. When we returned from dinner our limo was waiting, we went into Chicago and had a wonderful time. Here are just a few of the G rated photos that i can post, Enjoy!

Cheetos

As a young child my favorite snack were cheetos (i still enjoy them today). I would eat so many that my mom could not get the orange off my face. Therefore many of my childhood photos have me with an orange face. When Micah was very young my dad (the man behind the cheetos) wanted to know how soon he could have his first cheeto. Well, its official he has had his first cheeto and loved it. Now, my son will not walk around with an orange face, he will eat cheetos in moderation. Here are the first photos of Micah enjoying his cheeto.

Micah also had the opportunity to enjoy some animal cookies.

Micah and Mommies new workout

Micah has settled into his new routine, which includes an early morning ride in the jogging stroller while mommy roller blades. Sometimes Micah even takes a nap its so relaxing.

4th of July

Today was a first for our family. We all went out on a bike ride together. Micah got a new helmet and rode in the bike trailer. Micah really seemed to enjoy his ride, he even fell asleep the last part of the ride.

Micah really likes his new helmet.

Excited to take off.
