Almost 13 months old
… and boy, his mouth is literally exploding with new teeth. In the last 2 weeks he’s got 3 new teeth, so that make a total of 7!

Yip, it’s that time again… time for an update on Connor
My baby boy isn’t that much of a baby anymore. He’s a toddler now.
He’s been walking for about a month, and in the last week or so his confidence levels have just soared!
He’s starting to communicate more. If you call for Bradley or anyone he copies you. Bradley gets “bababababa” yelled at him. My mom gets a mangled kind of “Ganana”. Lance gets “dadadadadad”. And I get called “mamamama”. The sounds are definitely different so he’s beginning to try and talk.
When my mom arrives at the house to pick him up, he calls (yells) for Beauty as soon as the doorbell rings, and apparently this week he was going to the table and picking the keys up and giving them to Beauty.
He hardly crawls anymore. It’s such a pleasure when I get home now. I get him out the car, and he toddles off on his own to the house, leaving me to carry the bags! Yay!! Only one trip into the house now, instead of two! It’s amazing how much easier that makes everything.
When we’re going out, he’s just as clever. He toddles straight to his side of the car, and bangs on the door shouting at the top of his voice for you to open it and let him in. The only thing he can’t do yet, is climb into the car… but he’s trying, so I’m sure that’s coming soon.
He knows different animal noises and can mimic some of them. He can moo like a cow, whinny like a horse, make dove and ibis sounds, and he’s starting to mimic the dogs too.
He loves his walking toys now, as you can see in the photo above. He’s also loving the ride-ons too. Oooh, and he loves playing on Bradley’s old rocking horse (that Bradley barely used).
As for eating… he’s started eating proper food that isn’t mushed. He far prefers feeding himself than being fed himself.
And the clothes, well he’s between 12-18mths and 18-24mth clothes. He’s using both sizes at the moment.
I can’t think of more, but I’m sure there is more.
