Fun photo featurette

Look, Mommy, I can knock things off the coffee table now!

Sometimes those little puffy things require two hands to accurately place into his mouth.

Daddy teaching Conner how to play MarioKart.

Blech.  Mommy kisses.

Conner just found out he's 8 months old! (Remember this chair?)

Mo homut jee hod.

Perfect sunset at the Oasis.

Splashing around in the fountain at the Arboretum.

I have no idea what's going on here, but he's on a cow and he's telling me something. Moo?

Bed time

Pretty much every night before Conner goes to bed, he nurses.  It is easy for us to just to get him to sleep once he's had a little "night cap" and he's happier for it!  I love how excited he gets when he realizes that he's about to get the best meal of his entire life and it's been a grueling 3 hours since he last ate his previously best meal of his entire life!

I say it's easier for us, but really it's my time with him.  I get to stroke his hair and squeeze his chubby legs and sing him a song.  I tell him just how much I love him and that I love his little baby arms, little baby hands, little baby fingers and little baby fingernails.  All the while, Cody is relaxing and waiting patiently for when I "close the bar" and give Conner the pacifier.  He then gently picks the chunky monkey up and cradles him in his arms (so sweet) and places him in his crib in his room.

*sigh* I am so lucky to have a great husband and baby boy!

restaurant tables are yummy
