Connor 9 Months Old

9 months old and still on the go! Connor is getting faster and faster with his crawling and pulling to stand like it is no body's business! He went on his first pumpkin patch trip this month and got his very own pumpkin. However, he was sick with double ear infections (didn't find this out til later in the week) and was crying the entire time because he didn't feel good and it was 90 degrees outside..in October! Needless to say, it was not the best first experience. Better luck next year! :) We did eventually paint his pumpkin with finger paint and that was an experience! He had paint everywhere! haha Connor had his first Halloween this month, too! We all dressed up as a super hero family, and Connor was Super Connor! We had so much fun and captured some great pictures! Connor also had his first park adventure and loved it! He had so much fun swinging and kept the biggest smile on his face. I love his sweet smile!

Connor had his 9 month check up this month and besides the double ear infections he is developing right on target! Connor got his first flu shot at this doctor's visit, too, which I wasn't prepared for. I was hoping this was going to be the shot-free visit! Dr. Merritt told us over and over "he sure is active" and as he walked out he said "good luck with the holidays and Christmas tree!" LOL! I'm assuming we have a VERY active little boy :) Another first is that Connor waved bye bye to his teacher! Yay! He can also make baskets in his basketball and play fetch with Nola. Go Connor!
