Connor - 12 months

I don't know if I'm in denial that my baby is one or if I've really forgotten how babies should act at this age but everything Connor does surprises me. Lately he:

- Put his hands over his eyes then said, "boo!"

- Says day-do (thank you), ba (ball), bam-pa (grandpa), uh oh, Na ba (no), and he said apple juice clear as day once, even my mom heard him. He also sings "Let it gooooo" it's adorable   But he's hard to get to say or do anything on command, he kind of just does it when he feels like it.

- Is walking between furniture ie. Between a table and the couch. He'll hold on to both and go for it. I've also found him hanging on to door jambs.  He has taken a step and stood but gets too excited.

- Pulls himself up like a pro and really wants to walk but isn't quite sure if himself yet. 

- Looooves Daniel Tiger. It's the only TV show that captures his attention for .5 seconds. He pulls out all the Daniel books and does shakies and points to them excitedly and then he'll give Daniel a kiss.

- Gives kisses a lot now - except to Dallin. He doesn't seem to like the beard. He pushes his face away.  He also blows kisses.

- Seems to understand a ton.

- Loves to unload all my pans out of my oven drawer, unload bookshelves as fast as possible, dump out buckets of toys, climb all over things, and make the biggest mess possible-it's incredible.

- Loves to eat and snack.  He's kind of over bottles and loves adult food.  Especially churros.

- Still is a great sleeper, especially at night. Since we've been on the go this summer he doesn't really take a morning nap and takes a super long afternoon one.

- Has 10 teeth, his bottom 2 molars recently made an appearance.

- Still thinks Zoey is the funniest and wants to do everything she does.

- Loves the water like baths, pools, splash pad.  Loves it all.  Just gotta teach him not to splash in the bath like he does at the pool.

- Is a mommy's boy.

- Busts a move with his whole body.

- Shakes his head for fun.
