Teeth

Connor has been teething for the last couple of weeks. So far he has been taking it like a champ. The only thing that we've noticed is that he gets a little more cranky when he's tired or hungry. He's got the two bottom teeth coming in. There was only one, but the second came a couple days later and caught up. He definitely has a great bite on him. He loves to chomp down on just about anything. Don't let your fingers get to close. He is definitely a mama's boy. No matter his mood, when mama shows up he melts to a smiling, giggling pudge!

Hope y'all are warmer than us! The high the yesterday was 11 with a -15 wind chill and still no snow days. Let it to the guy who gets 2 and a half months off every year to whine about a day off...

With Love.

Baby/Dog Gate

Dad & I installed the baby gate yesterday. Connor isn't quite moving around yet, but we like to use power tools. The best thing about the gate is that it doubles as a doggie gate as well. The plastic in the middle is a little smoky, so Chief hasn't tried to run through it yet. He does poke it with his nose when he's trying to come upstairs to see if it is unlocked or not. Here are some pictures.

5 month video

Here is a video of Connor meeting his cousin Greta for the first time. They were kind of oblivious to each other, until Greta let a hand get too close to Connor and he shoved it in his mouth. We are definitely in the stage where everything, and I mean everything, goes to the mouth. He tried to get Emma in his mouth the other day. He didn't get close, but he tried. Connor is making noises like a little mad man! He talks to us, his mobile, the toys on his carseat, and just about any one else who will listen. He is quick to smile and cuddle with whoever is holding him as long as he's not tired or hungry, just like mommy and daddy! He lites up our world. I had basketball try-outs this week, so I only saw him for a little bit in the morning every day. By the time I was getting home, he'd already be in bed. It was probably the worst week we'd had in a long time. Anyway, got my team picked and a video put together of Pudge. Enjoy!
