Cup Stacking

The final result!

Serious flipping of the cups!

Goofy!!

The tounge really helps to balance you out!

I think it's safe to say that Connor has mastered my iPhone long before I did. Sad, but true! He loves to go on You Tube and find videos such as silly songs that teach you the days of the week, or vowels, or the months of the year. Well, apparently he has mastered those videos and one day, he accidentally stumbled upon Speed Cup Stacking. Yes, seriously. My 6 year old loves to stack cups. He even knows how many points you get and something about red cards and green cards, depending on how well you do. Yea, I just watch and laugh. I don't know the first thing about Speed Stacking. I do however, know that I better find some of the right cups for him for Christmas, or I will be in trouble!

I am Lara, a thirtysomething who is just now starting to figure life out. I am a very proud Army wife to Ray and a very proud mommy of Connor (7). Between hubby's job and his National Guard commitment, and Connor's school, speech therapy and horseback riding for OT, I'm finally finding time for me. I LOVE my family, sonic ice, Target, Hobby Lobby, Christmas, cold weather, cupcakes, mexican food, MOPS, flip flops, crafting, cooking, baking, spending time with my friends, photography and the occasional date with some guy I call my husband.

Connor was born on September 11, 2003. After he was born, we were informed that he failed his newborn hearing screening. As it turns out, Connor was born deaf but perfectly healthy. We were informed after meeting with a few specialists, that Connor was a canidate for Cochlear implants. We were beyond thrilled! Our little boy would hear! He had his first implant surgery 1 week after his 1st birthday and his second surgery in May 2006. He is still about a year and a half behind in his speech and language, but he is really making progress everyday. He's been through more in his life than anyone I know. He has also been diagnosed with kidney reflux that we discovered while on vacation in California in 2007. He had surgery to correct is in 2009 and it worked! He is currently in 1st grade and rockin' it if I might add. He goes to speech therapy twice a week and horse therapy once a week. He rides a horse named Chaney in hopes of gaining more confidence and he's making huge progress! He loves math, writing, word searches, legos, running around, climbing trees and eating. He is really an amazing kid and we are SO blessed he's ours!
