Bedtime Story

Ryan and I have always agreed that sticking to a schedule makes one happy baby. So every night before Connor fades  away to dreamland, we read him a story. He understands what we are doing and always listens so intently. And sometimes he even looks up to watch as we read... 

This is probably one of the best parts of my day. I just love cuddling with

my little Munchkin. Ryan and I are also pretty good about rotating the parental responsibilities, even when it comes to story time. And so every other night, we get to 

treasure this special time with our sweet boy. These are the little things that I love about our Life....

Half way there...

March 6, 2011 - 6 Months old

I can't believe Connor is 6 months old!!!... Where does the time go?... It seems like every day 

he is learning something new. Ryan and I have enjoyed every minute

we spend with him. Some days, I wish I could go back in time when I was on 

Maternity Leave and just stay at home and watch him dream. Other days, I look forward to watching 

him walk for the first time. We both have really enjoyed watching every stage... and 

are so fortunate to have such a happy, healthy, sweet lil man.

Here are a few things that our little guy has been up too....

- Eating solid foods

-Rolling over

-Passing a toy from one hand to the other

-Says ma ma (even though Ryan doesn't want to admit it)

-Turns and twist in all directions

-Looks and turns when he hears his name

-Studies things for a long time

-Understands the tone of our voice

-Plays games with Dad

-Loves to be cuddled by Mom

-Learning how to sit up

-When he is on his stomach he creeps back and forth

-Loves watching Zoie (our dog) run around 

-Enjoys being read too

-Loves bouncing in his jump-a-roo

-Reaches for his toys
