I should preface this by warning you this post is about Conor and his tricks. I am doing this so I can have this to keep some day by printing it all out. I think it's a neat way to keep track of his growth and keep friends and family updated as well.
I think I can safely say we are all healthy now...finally! We have tired getting back into the routine of work/going to the sitter, but snow and ice have had different plans. I don't mind the extra time with the little guy though. He is certainly a busy bee these days. He crawls faster than I ever imagined he would be able to, and gets away too quickly. He loves to pull himself up on anything he can reach and tries to go under anything and everything. This includes under the coffee table and under the chairs (where bars get in the way). He's very determined and becomes angry if he cannot accomplish this goal.
yay!
loving his bath
be assured: he will never leave a tower standing
Conor has also started eating with a fork. We stab the food for him, but he's quite good at getting it into his mouth. We started this because he is very resistant to having help eating and slippery little pieces make him very angry if he can't catch them. His most recent favorite is when we have tacos. He LOVES the meat, beans, and tortilla. He also loves cheese. Unfortunately I'm having trouble getting him to eat any fruits and vegetables. Good thing he still relies on milk for nutrition!
tacos!
i love tacos!
He loves standing up at his activity table and the coffee table. Just today he has gotten really good at holding on with one hand and reaching down for a toy. He also started pulling himself up to the couch today. Basically anything he can reach he tries to pull up on. He is standing in his crib, which has been lowered all the way. He tries to pull up on table legs, chair legs, the cupboards, and even the wall.
caught!
We took a trip to Ikea this past weekend and got him a tunnel while we were there. He was reluctant the first day and cried when we tried to put him in it, but the next day he did better and now he goes in all by himself.
I can't believe how fast he's growing and I need to begin planning his first birthday bash. It's amazing how he went from a little lump to a moving, talking, laughing little guy.
sooooo big!
can't help being so cute
I hope you've had a good week and thanks for reading! Comments are always appreciated :-)

Glad you have had some extra time this week...great idea to keep record of his life on the blog. I have notebooks of the kids, but this is sooooo much better: )
Give Conor a big hug and kiss from mawmaw and pawpaw! Thanks for sharing!!!!!
Wow, he has been busy! Thanks so much for sharing Conor's accomplishments with us in such a fun way. I see so much of Ryan in him, yet the constant, infectious smile is so reminiscent of your happy disposition as a child. We feel so privileged to be a part of your lives. Hugs and love to you all.
How did I miss this post?? He is growing up so fast, he will be walking before you know it. Glad to hear you are all feeling better, with 3 kids I feel like someone is always sick:( Can't wait to see you again...hopefully March????
Love the bath and taco pictures.
