Playing with toys

Connor loves to play with all of his toys that he got for Christmas.  His cousin Carson also likes to come and play with his toys too.  Are they not the two cutest little boys?!?!

Stories with Daddy

One of Connor's favorite activities is to read books.  He LOVES having us read to him.  He is getting good at turning the pages and on the books with the flaps, he likes to pull the flap down and see what is behind it.  It is very fun and cute to watch. As a special treat, we show him some stories on the tablet too.  He really likes those.  Daddy spoils him more than I do and it is a special time they have together. 

Happy Birthday Riley!

Happy Happy Happy 4th Birthday, Riley!  I cannot believe that you are already 4 years old (on Thursday)  WOW!  We had so much fun celebrating your Pinkalicious birthday. 

8 Months

Connor turned 8 months old on January 16th.  I cannot believe that he is already 8 months - time is going by so fast!  He is an absolute joy and an extremely happy and smiley little boy.  He definitely knows what he wants and will let us know.  He is still a GREAT sleeper - sleeping from about 7:30pm - 7:00am.  He also got his two bottom teeth! He started to crawl and loves to stand up along the furniture and play with his toys.  It is amazing how much he has learned in such a short amount of time and how strong he is.  As he is playing with his toys or crawling to get something you can see all of the wheels turning in his head and connecting the dots.  He is great at figuring things out and is into all of the details with everything.  He still loves his schedule - sleeping and eating.  Keep him on his schedule and he is happy.  He also LOVES to give his Mommy kisses and hugs.  He is "talking" more and more and just cracks us up each day. 

Crawling

We now have a crawler on our hands. Connor is on the move! It is so fun to watch him explore on his own. He is so curious and wants to know what is going on all the time. With his new found talent, he is able to be in the know now! He is just awesome! Way to go Connor!!!!

Swim Lessons

Connor started swim lessons this past Saturday.  I am not sure if he was 100% sold on them.  He did not cry, but he also did not really smile or seem to enjoy it that much.  I'm sure after the first couple of classes he will learn to like it a little bit better.  Connor is taking swim lessons with his cousin, Carson.  Carson LOVED the class.  It is a fun class - we get to sing songs, splash in the water and meet new people.  Let's hope Connor enjoys it a little more next week. 

Here are some pictures of his very first swim class!  He looked adorable in his swim suit!!
