Texarkana

A week ago Connor, my mom, and I all headed to Texarkana for my grandmother's knee replacement surgery. The surgery went great and now she is recovering and doing several weeks of physical therapy. We were all impressed with how well she did! Even though surgery is not a fun thing, it was still great to see all of my mom's family.

Along the way we stopped at Baylor and found this adorable kid seating area in the bookstore. With Connor's new love for climbing this was the perfect place to stop and get some of that energy out!

We arrived in Texarkana just in time to go to my cousin Callie's volleyball game. It was so fun to see one of her games for the first time. She did great! Connor had a great time hanging out with my cousin Courtney who kept him very entertained.

You can see Callie by the net on the far right in the picture (#10).

We finally made it to Momma Lou's house where Connor was so happy to be out of the car after a long ride. He quickly made himself right at home.

While my mom was at the hospital with Momma Lou, Connor and I were able to spend some time with my Papa and Ginny. They even kept Connor for me so I could go visit my grandmother. He had such a great time with them. He especially loves to run around and swing in their backyard!

On Friday, we packed up again and headed to Canton. This was Connor's first trip to Canton. We had always said that we would never take a baby to Canton, but when you are already so close it suddenly doesn't seem like that bad of an idea. :) Connor was amazingly great the whole day. We fixed him up a nice seat in the wagon where he could lean back comfortably. His favorite part of Canton was not the shops, but all the dogs people brought to the shops. Every time he saw a dog he got so excited!

We took a break and Connor got to enjoy his first snow cone. Yum!

Towards the end of the day Connor decided it was more fun to push the wagon than ride.

All of the fun wore this little boy out!
