9 Months!

Our not-so-little guy is 9 months today!

I haven't posted in a while so there's tons on here :)

Lately, he cannot be contained - he is constantly on the move or squirming away.  This sure makes diaper changing a challenge!  He has started to get more teeth and has been pretty fussy when we try to feed him baby food - which ends up in a mess!

I'm beginning to wonder when he will ever get hair - still a baldy!  Good thing Grandma Cathy bought him a few cute hats to cover him in these colder months!

He has such a funny little personality.  It seems like he knows right from wrong (even though I'm sure he doesn't)... when he finds something we've taken away before, he just looks at you and smiles and tries to sprint away with it.

At 9 months, Connor LOVES:
* Cheerios
* Playing with Mattie
* Pulling himself up on furniture
* Chasing balls around the house
* Pulling up his foam puzzle floor and chewing on it
* Babbling and making new noises

He currently DISLIKES:
* Eating from a spoon - he likes to feed himself but isn't always successful
* Peas
* Vacuum sound

Here are some pictures to show his growth progress at 9 months:

 

He thinks he's funny because he flipped the block so his name is spelled wrong :)

We have also taken a few videos of him over the past few weeks.

The first is of Connor playing with his best friend, Mattie:

The second video is of Connor deciding to use his walker - with assistance from daddy of course:

On the 13th, Grandma Cathy had a layover in Atlanta for a few hours so we were able to meet her for lunch and shopping near the airport!

I joined a women's weekday bible study at our church so Connor will get to play with his friends at church for an extra few hours each week!  He wears himself out there and takes a long nap when he gets home which is fantastic for me!
