6 months!

Connor had his 6 month check up on Monday. He is now 17.5 pounds and 27 inches long. He is growing and changing so fast! His doctor continues to be impressed with his muscle tone and strength. He can almost sit by himself (doing even better now than on Monday) and loves to EAT! She was excited to hear how much he loves his food and how many different things he has tried. Greg now gets the pleasure of creating a chicken or turkey puree for our little guy. He is developing very well over all, but she did mention that the back of his head is still a little more flat than she would like to see. She said it could be a lot worse, and it will probably shape itself fine since he's sitting up and rolling around more now. However, it has me a bit concerned, so we are working extra hard to make sure he stays up during the day and rotating where he lays at night. He is such a happy boy though and he brightens even the worst of days. He loves to play and laugh so much, which is so fun for me and Greg. I am so thankful to be his Momma!

My New Bouncy!

We broke down and bought a bouncy pod. He loves the one at day care, so now he can bounce all the time!


5 months

Another month has flown by in our little world. Connor has learned SO much in just the past few weeks. He rolls all over the place. He talks ("ba, ba, ba", "geww", and "ehh" are his current favorites). He can almost sit completely unassisted. He tends to topple over if he gets excited over his toys. Speaking of toys, he LOVES to play. We play so much! Everything, of course, goes into his mouth. We also purchased a bouncy pod that he count probably sit in for hours and be completely enthused. He has also started sleeping much better. When he got his first cold, he did not sleep well for a while. He now sleeps most of the night every night and sometimes doesn't wake at all until 6 or 7. He is such a happy baby. We are so lucky to be his parents. He makes every day so bright!

Here are some pics from the past month or so:
