Scar Face!!

Well, it wasn't exactly a great start this morning. I finished clipping the nails that Connor didn't let me do yesterday and then he was off to play a little before breakfast. All of a sudden he looks up at me with this huge scratch on his face. It seems no matter how short I get his nails he still can scratch the heck out of anything.

So then at breakfast he decides to choke on his Cheerios, so I took off the tray, unsnapped his strap, snatched him out of his chair and turned him up side down in what seems like half a second. After a couple pats on his back he was fine. WHEW! Freaked me out!

After Cheerios we moved on to applesauce. Guess he wasn't in the mood for that b/c after a couple bites he swatted the spoon and it went everywhere and before I could get a wipe... he rubbed it all over his face and in his eyes. Sheesh! The day did get better from there thank goodness!! Here's a picture of my little scar faced man. (the scratch looks smaller in the picture)

I want my Daddy!!

Here Connor is very badly wanting into daddy's den. He knows that is usually were to find him when he is home. At least once a day he will go to the door and tries to get in. He loves to help daddy with his work.... and gives him a much needed distraction now and then.

Little Monster

Well, it had to happen... Connor has grown out of his adorable one piece feety pajamas (they only go up to 9 months) so we had to get him some new jammies. So last week Grandma Mary, Connor and I went to the Outlets to see what we could find. We ended up finding these monster jammies (among others) that I think are just so cute and I think he looks so grown up in them. Here he is showing his monster personality. He could hardly stand still for any of the pictures (hence the blurriness) and even growled during one of them. Cutest little monster I've ever seen!!

Also, just discovered over the weekend, Connor has two more teeth coming in for a total of 8!! I can't believe it! I must confess that I did get a little misty eyed at the thought of him growing so fast! I'm completely amazed that we will be celebrating his 1 year birthday in a month and a half. Sheesh! Where does the time go?

Bath Time

Connor has really started to enjoy his bathtimes. He splashes around and giggles a lot. For me it's kinda like being in the front row at the Shamu show at Sea World. Can you say "splash zone"?!? He is just so much fun!




Other than bathtime he loves crawling around and pulling himself up on anything he can. He goes from toy to toy then room to room. His favorite is to chase Missy around. She is getting really good at avoiding him. Also at the top of his list is climbing on Daddy in the mornings while he tries to sleep. Heehee!
