Good-Bye 2007!! Hello 2008!

Wow! I cannot believe that 2007 has come and gone. It has been without a doubt, no questions asked, the absolute best year of my life! I have seen a phenomenal amount if changes in Connor - he is a little boy now, and he was an infant just a short time ago.

His latest trick is climbing on everything! He gets up on the couches, on the coffee table, and even on the...
















Dishwasher!!

He is unstoppable! Derek calls him our little shirpa! I have to keep an eye on him much closer now, because he will climb on to the couch in the blink of an eye! No more can we use the back of the couch as a catch-all for the things we don't want him to get at!

Connor continues to wave like crazy; he waves at people when they leave the room, and he waves as soon as someone puts a jacket on. He waves when we go into his bedroom, and he waves when you put him in the car seat! He has an excellent grasp on what going bye-bye means!

The weather has been fabulous lately, so Connor and I took the opportunity to head outside and play! Grandma Smith bought Connor the most adorable snowsuit, so we had to have a little winter photo shoot!






I know he is grinning behind that snowsuit!!














He kept trying to move around and then he just fell right over!





I thought I should finally get a couple pictures of Connor in front of his first home!















Here he is trying to get forward, but he can't move all that well in the snowsuit!

And, I will throw in a couple cute pictures from New Year's Day to finish things off:

You can see his poor little red cheeks in these pictures. He is still working on those top teeth, and his face always gets so red when he is teething! I see some small white spots on his gums now, so maybe by his Birthday he will have at least one more tooth!

Connor's First Birthday is in one week! I have so much planning to do still!
