Connor: Seventeen Months Old

*Favorite foods: Bananas, blueberries, grapes, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches {without crust}, and pancakes. I have started letting you eat your snacks either on the stairs or at your small table in the living room.


*Size clothes: Mostly 24 months and size 7 shoes. 
*Favorite toy: Wooden blocks and Megablocks, wooden trains, and puzzles.
*Favorite book: The Very Hungry Caterpillar and your new Poke-A-Dot book about colors. I even like pressing the buttons and making them pop. Before bed, we used to read to you in the rocking chair, but now you like to read in your room while you sit in your chair.
*What makes you happy: Playing at the playground, when Kylie plays with you, playing in your room, reading books, and helping me do laundry.
You have become the best little helper!
*What makes you mad: Getting your diaper changed and your teeth brushed. You don't mind brushing your own teeth though!
You don't like for your hands to be dirty. Anytime you get something on them, it can be the tiniest crumb, you come to me with your hands open so I can wipe them off.
*Sleep: You take one to two naps during the day. If you wake up at 5 or 6{which happens frequently}, you take a morning nap around 8 and an afternoon nap around 2. If you wake up after 7, then you will take one long nap around 12:30. Every night you go to sleep at 8. You still wake up a couple times during the night, so I usually have to rock you for a little while.
*Cute things you do: You love copy me. If I stretch, you stretch. If I make a funny noise, you make a funny noise. When I wash my hands and dry them, you have to as well. It's pretty adorable.
*New things you have done over the past month: You have started shaking your head back and forth to tell me no. When I sing to you, you yell "Mom!" as if you want for me to stop because you are embarrassed by my awful singing. You throw anything you can get your hands on. You have broken three different things this month because you have such good aim... It's driving me a little crazy! Sometimes you tip toe around the house. You like clicking your tongue and trying to jump. You have started giving the best hugs and kisses! The biggest thing you have learned is to follow simple commands. Two of your favorite things to do are throw things for me in the trash and flush the toilet.
Communication: You are quite the chatterbox when I can get your paci out of your mouth! This last month you learned to say: cheese, no, hi, bye, cracker, shis {shoes}, nana {banana}, owww, thank you, more, and cookie!
