9 MONTHS...Can it Be???

Boy does time fly! I feel SO OLD saying that, but it really does!!! Connor man is 9 months old today. What fun & fast nine months it's been! In honor of Connor's 9 month birthday...here are nine fun things about our little guy:
1) He loves people...children and adults.
2) He LOVES making faces and noises of ALL kinds. He is constantly coming up with something new!
3) He is our little drummer boy! Everything is a drum to Connor!
4) He has mastered walking around our furniture...and is getting braver by the day on this one. He is now letting go, or stretching as far as he possibly can to get from one side of the living room to the other...or, if need be...he will sit down and roll or scoot (still not quite crawling yet).
5) He loves Peek A Boo. We play this behind furniture, towels, etc...
6) Connor doesn't quite have stranger danger yet, but he does get pretty upset if Rick or I leave the room or go to work...it breaks your heart!
7) Lately we have found Connor sitting and/or standing in his bed when he wakes up. This morning, I looked into the video monitor and he was just standing there...ready to start the day.
8) Connor still loves to be outside. We often go to the local walking trail and he is so content to just look and listen to everything around him. Also, when we get out of the car, if we don't take a minute to go outside the garage to 'explore' he gets just a little upset.
9) Last but not least...he said "Bye-Bye" for the first time this morning...
We ate breakfast with our good friends The Jacks Family. We were getting ready to leave and I told Connor to say bye bye to Preston & Nathan...and well...HE DID!!! He simply uttered "bu-buy." What a sweet moment!


Seriously...are we done yet?

Walking around on the furniture.
Playing with a new toy from our friend Gavin. Thanks Gavin!
Walking around his bed...that is now lowered ALL the way to the bottom!
We go to the Dr. next week for Connor's 9 month appointment...but at our measurement today...Connor is 26 lbs and 30 1/2 in long...we'll see what the Dr. says.
