i've found my nose

This is Connor's new favorite thing to do. Pretty cute now, but I'm afraid it won't be for long. :)

Connor had his 9 month doctor's appointment today and it was a doozy. 3 shots and a finger prick. He was wiped out by the time we came home. He fell asleep while chewing on the tongue depressor that our doctor gave him. So cute! He's up to 21.6 pounds (60th%) and is 29.5 inches long (85th%).

and we're off...

We are officially crawling! It took a little time, and mom and dad crawling around on their hands and knees a lot, but we are finally there. It's so cute to see the little peanut moving all around. We're sure walking is just around the corner!

dinner with grammy and bumpa #1

My grandparents, Grammy and the original Bumpa, were in town the other night from Arkansas and we all got together for dinner. It was so fun to see them!

Evelyn sat in a restaurant high chair for the first time, it was really cute. She is so small compared to the big chair! And she smiles for about every picture. Connor on the other hand prefers to stay somewhat serious. :)

happy new year!

lots of visitors

Connor had a lot of visitors over the holiday. Friends Jennifer and Kelli stopped by to say hello right before New Years. Connor loves to not smile for the camera lately.

Friends Craig and Wendy made it here for Christmas from California. They were able to meet Connor for the first time. We met them and our friend Matt for dinner before they headed back home. We had a great time and wish they lived closer. :)

bumpa's birthday

Aunt Shawn, Uncle Shawn, Josh and Molly made it in town after Christmas and were here in time to celebrate Bumpa's birthday. Thanks to Molly and Josh we have these great pictures to share. Thanks guys for taking pictures!

more sledding

Luke, Kyle, Kyra and Kevin came over a couple weeks ago to sled. You can sort of see the ramp they built that created tons of fun for all! Poor Luke wiped out though (last picture). All fun and games until someone wipes out on the snow ramp.

Merry Christmas!

We have been so blessed this year to have Connor join our family, who knew something so small could bring so much joy to so many people. And thank you all for being a part of our lives, we wouldn't have nearly as much to blog about without you. :) We love you, have a wonderful New Year!

Love, Kevin, Zoe and Connor

Christmas fun!

We had a jam packed holiday this year, we loved it though, so fun to be with all our family! Connor officially has more toys/clothes then we know what to do with, we are very grateful though. Tissue and wrapping paper apparently would have made the best gifts, he had a ball with those. Here are a few pictures from Christmas Eve /Christmas Day...

our visit to santa

So we went to see santa last weekend and were surprised at how well Connor did... at first. He looked santa over and was fine for the first picture. Then they made eye contact and it was all over. Everyone waiting in line gave us the "aahhh" when he started crying. Guess it was to be expected. Poor bubba.

i love to eat

Puffs are Connor's favorite food right now. He'll pick those over Cheerios every time. He's getting really good at feeding himself too. We can't believe he's almost 9 months old!

sledding

We have the best backyard for sledding! Kevin, Luke and Kyle had a blast when we had a little snow the other weekend. Connor didn't get to sled, but we did get to try out his new snowsuit and play in the snow a little bit.
