Mommy's Been Slacking...

Ok, so it's been about a month since my last post, but it's been a very busy month, so you'll have to forgive me. Connor has had a lot of fun this spring. The "playroom" (i.e. 3 season porch) is now open, so there's more room for him to play, and we purchased a new wagon for him to ride around in. He LOVES the wagon! It has seats and belts so he is secured while we ride around the cul-de-sac. He and Daddy were quite the pair as they rode around the neighborhood the first day we got it.

I am noticing a few "words" come out of Connor every now and then. Just this morning I heard him say "Duck" after they said the word on Blue's Clues. He also says "I did it" and ... of course, when he sees me, he says "Dada!". Go figure! He does say "Mum" when he REALLY wants something (like food). He mostly just motions for what he wants, though (for example, he just walked into the office, pulled on my sleeve and had me follow him into the living room where his "O's" were all gone... he wanted more!). I'm sure by the time he's 16 he'll be able to verbalize what he wants. :)

I posted some other random pictures that were taken this past month as well - enjoy!


It doesn't take long - learning to use the remote. Don't mind the leftover dinner all over his face!


Hmmm...guilty look! Notice all the books on the floor in the background.


Connor has learned to get on and off his fire truck all by himself!


And the dismount.


Sitting in a big boy chair all by himself.


Just relaxing...


Wrestling with Daddy. A few seconds after this was taken, Connor (in this same position) reached over and grabbed the pacifier that's on Joey's chest, and put it right in his mouth. All while upside down! It was too cute.


Riding fast in the wagon.
