7 Months and a Little Snow

My baby turned 7 Months old this week. I can hardly believe it and boy has things changed in the last month. Let's start with his stats from his 6 1/2 month check up. Can you say, 85% for height and weight. He was 20 1/2lbs and 28 inches long. And that noggin...well he takes after Cousin Emma. 96%!!

When we were in Jackson for Christmas, Connor started leaning to one side to reach something. A few 4 weeks later and he is trying to crawl. He can pretty much get anywhere he wants to go and is getting faster by the day. He has been "army crawling", but he is now getting up on his hands and knees and rocking back and forth. It's just a matter of days now and we won't be able to let him out of our sight. Did I mention he is into EVERYTHING. The true boy is coming out. He crawled into the laundry room and tried to pull up on the dryer while the door was open. One day I am sure I will find him IN the dryer.

Talking...really. He even cracks himself up now. He has learned how to get a reaction out of us. He will "fuss" and wait for us to look at him and then he smiles because it worked. He knows exactly who Abby is and is in love with her. If you say, "Where's Abby" he will look until he sees here and then smiles. He liked to try and pet her, but she is having nothing to do with him. He makes this noise actually an "Ooooooo", but the funny thing is I think he relates it to Abby. Abby doesn't always barks, she kind of howls and I think he is trying to copy her.

His little personality is coming out every day. I can't wait to see who this little guy is going to be.

So, in addition, it finally started snowing in Denver. New Year's was the first "real" snow we had and we couldn't wait to get Connor out in it. Here are some of our pics from the day.

  2. Put a snowboard on that little booty and let him ride! Or better yet, get him a sled and let Abby pull him around!
