Connor cracks me up with the binoculars...every time he tells me he sees a whale!!!

Connor and I hiked around Ka 'ena Point....yes, you heard it right...I went on a hike all in search of more humpback whales!

And I saw a spout and 2 jumps...Connor missed it bc it happened pretty fast as we were walking...but I was glad to see it! Now if I could just teach him a little patience...he might have seen some : )

Connor has been more interested in getthing himself dressed over the past few days...he came out asking for help to put the tie on his t-shirt!

so that he could be the Dad of his animals!!! Very entertaining!

Dino valentine from Granny and Clyde with $5...and Connor counted it too! We might go to the store today so he can spend it!

Beautiful views from the whale watching boat in Waikiki...

Whale watching on Valentine's Day! Notice Connor's expert use of the binoculars! He was super excited to use them!

Dress up...Connor will put on random things...he told me here he was a Sunshine Fighting Soldier...hence the sunglasses...

really need to get him some costume stuff in a trunk that he can play with...not that he needs too much help bc he sure has an active imagination!

A traditional Lion Dance in celebration of Chinese New Year...this was an awesome show at the mall today!

At the end...the lions dance around and people give the lion money for good luck!

Connor got some chocolate and Valentine from Mamaw and Papaw...he dove into the chocolate and ate it all at once!

Scott went to school to read a book in celebration of Connor's 1/2 birthday...since he's an August birthday and won't normally be in school!

Scott read "How Do Dinosaurs Go To School" and Connor held the little matching dino that Auntie Bean sent to him for Christmas

Connor's good night prayer...

And I quote, "Our Father, who works in Heaven...thank you for this world!"

Funny Connor story from this morning:

So, Connor tells me, "Mommy, if you are good today, your can buy yourself a present tomorrow. But if you yell at me and tell me I'm naughty...then absolutely not!"

It was so funny...so I guess when we think he's not listening to what we say...he sure is! Bc I think we had this discussion last week! He gets smiley face stickers for good behavior...and sad faces for negative behavior...and if he gets 5 smiley faces in one day...he can pick a prize from the prize box...but if he has sad faces...I am pretty sure I told him, absolutely not!!!
