Here goes this crazy 8 things tag.
8 Favorite T.V. Shows
Like others of my family, I don't think I have eight. We also don't have cable and just don't watch that much. Here are the ones we do watch occasionally, I'm sorry to say they aren't educational, just entertaining.
1. Amazing Race (we do love this one, we watch in on Mondays on-line to avoid nasty
commercials.)
2. Dancing with the Stars-my little dancer loves this. We don't care who wins
3. So You Think You Can Dance-same as above
4. American Idol-somewhat boring this season because there is such a clear favorite-
I'm just mad my favorite (Megan) is gone.
5. Gilmore Girls-a guilty pleasure that isn't on anymore but I own it.
6. PBS-Clifford and Word World
7.?????
8.?????

I guess that's it sorry.
How on earth did that happen? Anyway, so far Connor hasn't hit any of the teenage angst and attitude. I know it's probably coming, but I'm sure going to do my best to enjoy him now. Connor is an awsome big brother and example to us all. He is very easy going and works hard, at home and in school. He is almost always willing to help me when I need it. 
He also has a great sense of humor, much more subtle than Chase's but funny and fun to kid with. He loves hanging out with his friends, shooting some hoops, playing the trumpet, and babysitting(not really that one, but I sure love that he can and is willing to). Mike says blogs are just another form of the brag letter, but I told him I feel like what I put on here is for me and what I want to remember. 
So if I'm bragging, oh well. Connnor is super patient with his younger siblings (not perfect mind you there is definately yelling and fighting at times) He is my most even tempered child. He totally gets that from Mike, not me. We are so grateful he is part of our family.
