My baby boy is getting so big. I can't believe we're going to celebrate his birthday next month. Wow how time just flies!!! Connor's been up to many things this month. He's learning and growing every day. I'm just amazed at all the new things he does every minute.
Connor at 11 months...
He LOVES the television. We don't have cable TV, so he's very limited to about 2-3 videos that we do have, lol... but he just loves to watch anything with music. Backyardigans & Sesame Steet are his favorites. And of course, he can't just watch... he has to get as close as he can to the screen...
Connor went to 2 Wards Christmas parties this year, both with Santa... and he didn't like it either time...
He just got in his top two teeth. He's been teething for a few months now, and they FINALLY came through. The good thing though, is that he started sleeping so much better. He was up 4-5 times at night before, and now he's only up once... maybe twice.
He learned to crawl the "normal" way. He was army crawling up until now, but this month, he finally got the hang of it.
He LOVES helping daddy out with anything and everything that he's doing.... dishes, laundry, yardwork, hanging up the Christmas lights...
He LOVES to touch EVERYTHING with his pointer fingers. That's how he checks everything out. He examines it all in such detail.
He's a big cheeseball... enough said...
He's said "mama" and "dada" before, but I don't really think he was saying it to us. He knows who we are (as in if you say "where's daddy?" he will look right at him) but for the past few months, he just hasn't said much of anything. Well, he now talks up a storm. Not really saying anything specific, but he NEVER stops talking. He did say his first real word this month. "Doggy" which he pronounces more like "dah gah" He LOVES my parents 2 dogs and my sisters dog, and squeals in delight when he sees them yelling out "dah gah... dah gah" But we also found out this week that he doesn't like any other dog. He's VERY VERY VERY afraid of any other dog. He cries and almost shakes because he's scared... not sure when that happened.

But... sometimes he thinks he can walk and he'll just venture out to take a step and fall flat on his face. He actually took 1 1/2 steps today, which we were all shocked!!!
He LOVES to cook/watch us cook. If anyone is in the kitchen, he crawls over to them, and has to be right there in the action as the food's being made.
Whenever he hears music, he dances (head bangs) and giggles. He LOVES music.
Connor's laughter is contagious and there's no way you can be in a room with him for more than 5 minutes without busting up laughing. He's a joy to be around and we love having him in our lives!
