The Words, They Are A Commin!

Well.....I left a couple words out of my last post, and since then, Connor has added several words to his vocabulary. I may be a total dork for writing them down and how he says them, but I never want to forget :)

• Mailbox- Connor has been obsessed with mailboxes since we started walking in the evenings. He points out each and every single one and tells me that it's a "meh-box" :)


• Abbey ("babby")- Poor Rosco doesn't get any Connor love. Connor LOVES Abbey and he is not ashamed to profess his love for her.


• Yo Gabba Gabba ("babba babba")- Connor's favorite show....EVER!


• Bath ("ba"), Key ("tseee"), Light ("ight")


• Toooooot and Poooooop- typical boy. Period.


• Elmo ("Muh-muh")- He loves that little furry red guy <3


• Moooooon- he knows exactly what it is and points right to it. I taught him "moon" on one of our walks, and I was VERY impressed when we went to the Christ the King Carnival 2 days later, and he pointed to the moon and said "moooooon." He is retaining so much right now! It's incredible to me!


• Bubble ("ba-boooo")- one of his newest words. He blew bubbles with Nana and Granddad last weekend when Justin and I went to the lake, and while he was there, he learned "bubble" :)


• Stinky ("tink"...and he scrunches his nose)- I taught him this one a while back, and it still cracks me up to hear him say it!


• Cookie (tuut-tee), Chicken ("tink-in")- Nana taught him these :)


• Drew ("Drooooo")- he LOVES looking at pictures of Drew on my mom's refridgerator


• "Me"- when you ask him who is in the mirror, or point out a picture of him, Connor says "me"...it's super cute


• "Buh-bye"- and he waves at himself most of the time.

Connor is our angel. We fall more and more in love with that child each and every single day. <3

Connor's Vocabulary

Well, at 14 months, Connor still isn't walking (not that he can't....he can stand alone and take steps if he WANTS to...he just doesn't want to lol) but my goodness the kid knows a LOT of words! His vocab includes:

Momma, Dada, Da-dee, Nana, Meh-muh (that's Gramma), Duck, Ball, Dog, Pig, Juice, Diper, Pretty (he says that when he touches one of my necklaces), Muh (thats Monkey....and if you ask him how the monkey goes, he will tell you "ah ah ah"), Moo......I think that's it. Here is a little video of him saying "Peeg"....he loves pig's. It's so funny! :)

Connor's First Bite :(

Well, it happened....as I knew someday it would.....a little girl at daycare hauled off and bit Connor while he was minding his own business, playing with his shoe. Hey, these things happen, so I certainly wasn't bent out of shape over the whole ordeal, I just felt bad for Connor. The ladies at the daycare felt awful about it, and were relieved when I didn't get mad.....but what is getting mad going to do? Absolutely nothing. I am surprised that they even have to worry about a parent getting bent out of shape if their child gets bit at school. Those women are incredible, they do the best they can keeping a handle on 6 or 7 toddlers.....I could never do their job, and never intend to try. :) Here is a picture of the official "Biting Report" and a little documentation of Connor's first bite mark.
