Gotcha!

I've been posting a lot of pictures of Austin to transfer to his baby book, but lately I've taken a few pictures of Dylan that I wanted to share. Normally he runs from the camera, looks away, or makes a funny face, but these turned out great. These last two pictures were taken tonight when I was taking a picture of Austin for turning 10 months today. Dylan looked at me and said, "You can't get a picture of me, I'm too fast!" The game began and I ended up with lots of blurry pictures some with no one in them, but in the end...

Success, Gotcha!

10 Months

This month Austin has become very vocal. He stared saying Dada in addition to Mama. He also says something that sounds like a mix between clap and quack. I think he is trying to say clap but it is hard to tell. He babbles constantly. His favorite thing to yell is still Mama, and I do mean yell. He is most definitely a Connors boy. Those of you who know them will most certainly agree. Good lungs run in the family! Needless to say, I definitely feel loved :)

Austin has also started eating more solid foods. He loves Puffs, Cheerios, Bananas, strawberries, yogurt, sweet potatoes, and graham crackers. He also eats nearly all baby foods.

He had been sleeping really well. Averaging 8-10 hours at night nursing and then going back to sleep for another 3-4 hrs until recently. He just got his third tooth last week and two more on top are just cutting through as well so we have not been sleeping as well lately. He still naps twice a day. Lately he has been taking an 1.5 - 2 hr nap in the morning and and a shorter 1 hr nap in the afternoon. In the picture above. Austin had just woke up from a long morning nap very happy. He looked so cute I quickly ran to get the camera.

Austin is a very busy baby. Crawling. pulling up and exploring everything. Here are some more pictures of him in action this month:

Christmas Photofest

I connected our camera to the computer and we had 341 Pictures this month! It was taken me a while to sort through. We had such a fun December. Here are some of my favorites:

The Pickle Present
All the cousins search for the hidden pickle ornament on our tree at our annual Christmas Eve Brunch. This year Ryan won. The runners up won glasses (to help them see better next year :))

Wow, Santa came! Before Dylan would look to see his stocking and gifts he insisted that we check to see if Santa ate the cookies we left for him.
