never should have said yes

Every time Ransom and I go to the grocery store together he asks if he can drive one of the battery operated carts. Conrad always tries to go sit on them. I've never given in before, until last night. Conrad loved every second of it. Every once in a while Conrad would get the cart going backwards unexpectedly, but luckily no one got hurt! Conrad even left the store without crying when we took him off the cart.

When I got home from work tonight I found out that Ransom took Conrad to the grocery store just to play on the cart again. I see a bad habit forming already. I guess I need to be more careful what I say yes to when I have a husband that is a kid at heart! -Katie

All Bundled Up

Now that it's cold outside Conrad loves to get all bundled up under the blankets after bath time. -Katie

Breakfast

Conrad has a new favorite breakfast. He points to the cereal while he says "melk". He loves frosted flakes. We ran out one morning so I tried to give him Rice Krispies and he looked at me like what is this stuff. He just played with it for a few minutes before he asked for chicken nuggets. He is also starting to love bananas. He ate 3 after his nap yesterday. He would finish one and ask for more. He is a bottomless pit! -Katie

First Snow

I woke up this morning to Ransom and Conrad putting on snow clothes. This is Conrad's first time playing in the snow this year and he was in heaven. He just wandered around the yard, until he discovered how fun it was to knock snow off of the bushes. He would laugh so hard when he hit the bush. I can tell this is going to be a fun winter with Conrad!


My mom has always loved shrimp, but never got it because no one else in the family likes it. Paul, Ransom, and Josh all like it so tonight we had my family over for a seafood dinner. I'm not a huge seafood fan, but I love my mom's salmon she makes. She puts brown sugar and spices on it and it tastes just like candy! Ransom made pineapple and bacon wrapped shrimp. He also made some plain with garlic butter dipping sauce. The shrimp lovers were in heaven! -Katie
