9 Months and More

Connor's 9 month appointment went really well. He weighted in at 18 lbs 15.4 oz so you might as well say 19 lbs. and he was 27 1/4 inches long. He has a new pediatrician that I am not thrilled with but Larry doesn't seem to mind him. He is very good at what he does he is just very dull and doesn't talk a lot. Luckily Connor only goes to the doctor every few months. On another note he can now pull himself up on objects and walk along the furniture. Once he gets his sea legs he will be on the move without holding onto anything. He is also starting to eat table food. He really enjoyed the ice cream cake we had for Larry's birthday.
Besides Connor's appointment and his milestones it has been a busy month with lots of visitors. Over Labor Day Larry and Diane came for a visit. Larry and his dad did a few things around the house that needed to get done. They finished the master bathroom by tiling it and they put a railing on the deck. I still need to stain it which I am hoping to get to this weekend. It really needs to get done before it snows but with the way the weather has been here I don't think we will get snow anytime soon. It has been so hot lately.
Then just a few weeks ago Amanda came to visit. She had a good visit. We played tourist a couple days, got Connor's 9 month pictures done another and the rest we just relaxed at home and played with the kiddo.
Two weekends ago we took a drive through the mountains to see all the trees changing colors. It was real pretty. And lastly this past weekend we went to a harvest festival. That was pretty cool. We had some really good pie and apple cider there. Before we left Connor picked a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch, with the help of his dad, the one they picked out was green with orange speckles. However, that really cool green pumpkin has since turned orange.
Larry is off mountain training again this month so Connor and I are headed to Oklahoma to see my mom and dad. I am not sure which one of the two is more excited about us coming. I will leave you now with some pictures from the last month.
