26 months!!!

Connor James is 26 months old!!! My, how time flies when you're having fun!  And that's exactly what we do with you, Connor!  We have so much fun!  You keep us entertained and on our toes, that's for sure!  Being a parent to a energetic two year old is definitely the most challenging and rewarding job at the same time, and we love every second of it!!  We have become pros at having no sleep! haha! ;)  Oh, if only we could have just an ounce of your energy! :)

Here's one of our favorite flashback pictures of you, sweet boy!

You're about 4 1/2 months old in this picture.  You have the best smile! :)

Here's a few of the things you're up to this month:

• You took your first nap out of a crib this month!  You were such a big boy too! You went down for your nap no problem and have been napping out of your crib, like a big boy, everyday since!!!
• You have been eating out of your highchair this month too!  You LOVE to sit at your little table and eat your meals!  Its the perfect size for you too!
• You took your first nap WITHOUT a pacifier this week! In fact, you have take two naps in a row without a paci!!!! THIS IS HUGE!!!
• You are talking A LOT! You have started using 2 and 3 word sentences and repeat EVERYTHING! You absolutely amaze me everyday with how much your vocabulary is expanding!!!  You are such a big boy!
• You are Mr. Independent! You don't like for us to carry you anymore.  You hold our hand and walk next to us 100% of the time now. :)
• You started pre-school this month and LOVE it!!!
• You are the sweetest toddler we know! You have started coming up and giving us kisses and hugs for no reason! It absolutely melts momma's heart when you come up and give your little brother kisses before you are off to bed!
• You are a blankie hoarder.  That's right, you think you need to carry at least 3 blankies with you all over the house, where ever you go!
• You don't like being cooped up in the house for too long.  When you feel like we've been home too long, you bring daddy his hat and keys and tell him its time to go bye-bye! LOL
• Your new favorite hang-out is on Momma & Daddy's bed!  You carry your 3 blankies and all your stuffed animals into our room and camp out on our bed! You play in there for hours!
• You are OBSESSED with turning the lights on and off!  You always make sure to tell us, "On" and "Off" as you flip the switch! lol Stinker!
• You think you MUST point out letters and numbers on everything!  You're so smart!!! :) 

 

We love you so much Connor! You are such a blessing and are a great role-model for Liam!  Nothing makes us happier than being able to watch you learn and grow day after day!  We can never get enough of you!  God has blessed us so much and we will be forever grateful! We love you to the moon and back times infinity!
