Happy 11 months!!




Oh, I am afraid that this day has come. The last month Connor is 'zero' years old! My little monster has grown up so quickly. We woke up to a chilly day (actually the first cold day we've had since Connor was about a month old--when I say cold, I mean about 65 degrees). Brought back memories of having to bundle him in sleepers, blankets, and little sockies when he was a wee little boy. Since Connor is somewhat lacking in the winter clothes department, I pulled out this adorable outfit he got from our favorite, Pip, and got it on him before he outgrew it! Goodness, did he look handsome!! We spent the morning at the park and after a long nap, I knew he'd be awake for the rest of the afternoon. Nana and I decided to make a trip over to the mall. Didn't really need to get anything, but thought it would be nice just to get out and have a new place to walk. So we loaded up Connor's cadillac of a stroller (the big one that rarely goes places with us, unless we know he'll be sitting in it for awhile). We enjoyed a nice lunch together, then headed through the mall. Connor wasn't really in the shopping mood, which ended up saving Mommy and Nana money anyway! We did a little walking, browsing the baby boy clothes, pulled Connor out of stroller, tried to keep him off the floor as much as he wanted to be on it, put Connor back in the stroller, more walking, then we were pretty much done. It was a nice time killer and we got to get out for a bit! Here are a few pictures from our day--


**He's actually not throwing a fit, although it may appear that way. This is the new, ham-face he makes. He usually only does it for his Papa, but decided to do it when I had the camera out. He makes eye contact with you, squints his eyes, opens his mouth, and tilts head back. He's such a little goober!


Love this picture of Connor and Nana! They are a pair!


Checkin out Thomas the Train at the mall. He enjoyed having a little freedom from the stroller and being held all day.


Cruising in a boat! A waste of 75 cents, as he didn't even notice it was in motion! All he really wanted to do was play with the floor of it and pound on the hood. Whatever kept him happy!


The squirmist kid alive! When he starts walking, I will need to hook up a GPS tracking device on him, because he will definitely take off! No question!
