My first night away from home and other cool stuff!

On Saturday night, I spent my first night away from home with my Nana and Popaw, while Mommy and Daddy went to Ms. Whitney's wedding.



We went on walks and played and Nana bought me some new shoes and a new baby gym. I love to lay under it and watch the toys sway back and forth to the music.


On Sunday, we went to church and then I got to go meet my Grandma Carrie (one of my great-grandmothers) and Mama Dot (my great-great-grandmother). They fed me and played with me, I really liked meeting them - Mommy will post some of those pictures soon.



I have learned a few new things tricks lately. I have discovered that Mommy's arms and fingers taste really good and are great for chewing on, when I can't get to my own hands. I have also been trying to stand - I really like it when someone holds me up and lets me put my feet on the ground and look around, that really makes me happy :) Also, Mommy and Daddy have been helping me to learn to crawl, since I wiggle forward and backwards when I'm on my stomach, but I can't seem to make my arms and legs work at the same time, so I just kind of slide on my chest across the floor.
More updates soon - love you all, Connor

What I have been up to since summer began!

Mommy and daddy got me a pool the other day - I'm not sure if I like it though, the water is a little cold at first, but I got use to it. Here's a picture of me in my first bathing suit and rash guard from my favorite Aunt Becky.








Here I am with Mommy going for my first dip -




















and this is what I thought of the water!







I started rolling over the other night -it's pretty neat actually, I just can't seem to figure out how to get back to my stomach just yet. Here is a video Mommy took of me rolling over last friday.







I have also started to hold a few things in my hands - here I am with my new soccer rattle. It's really fun to shake, but sometimes I hit myself in the head, since I'm just figuring out my coordination.











I saved the best for last - here's a picture of me smiling for the camera.
