Adventures in Crawling

Connor has all sorts of adventures now that he's a master crawler. He can crawl over many things and into tiny spaces. Here he's crawled under an end table. He found the lamp cord which he thinks is tons of fun and playing with curtains are a good time, too. Luckily, he'll crawl out when asked without hurting himself.

Even Crazier Messier Baby

Connor loves to eat yogurt. The other morning he practically dove off my lap from eating a bottle over to Jerimiah because Connor wanted some of the yogurt Jerimiah was eating. So this morning Connor decided to get Jerimiah's leftover yogurt out of the trash to eat it, chew on the container, and cover himself from head to toe in it. Time for a bath!

Happy Fourth of July

Hope everyone had a wonderful July 4th weekend. Even though it was more like April than July we had a great time celebrating Connor's first Independence Day. Down below Connor's playing his first game of catch with Daddy. Both had a great time!

Crazy Messy Baby

Connor was an extra crazy and messy baby last night. After the zoo and a good nap, he was so hyperactive. At top he's having a snack after dinner. His top four teeth are coming in all at once, so eating is a little troublesome. He likes to spit - a lot - which makes big messes all over. He's been cleaned up a little, but you can still see his yellow nose and hands. Down below he was just having fun going crazy with mommy and daddy.

At the Zoo

We've gone to the zoo a couple of times this summer, and Connor's having a good time. At first he didn't really get it and spent more time people watching than looking at animals. He did smile at the elephants and rhinos yesterday - I think it actually saw them. So many of the animals are hard for him to see, especially sitting in the stroller. Connor's favorite part is definitely the aquarium. He loves the tunnel with fish, sharks, and sting rays swimming all around you. In the picture, you can catch a glimpse of a sting ray in the background.

Playing in the Kitchen

Connor always has a ball playing in the kitchen. He loves the alphabet magnets on the refrigerator. He enjoys getting into the trash no matter how many times he's told no. Connor loves to get into his cabinet with all his goodies. He also enjoys "helping" mom load the dishwasher and playing with his reflection in the oven.

Father's Day Weekend

Here's Connor with Daddy on Father's Day getting ready to go swimming. At the bottom, Connor's riding the horse swing at Grandpa's house, and of course he has to chew on that string.
