Conor Christopher: Fourteen months

Conor by month 1 // 2 // 3 // 4  // 5  // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11 // 12 // 13

Growing // Just a few days before you were officially 14 months, you had an appointment at Children's and there you weighed 18 lbs even (3rd percentile) and you measured 27 inches in length (still not on the charts for that!).

Eating + Sleeping // You are consuming about 6-8 oz 4 times a day, but just in the last few days you've definitely upped your food intake and decreased your liquid intake. You really love eating food, and it's so fun to watch you explore all the things on your tray. You can pick up all sorts of things with your little fingers. You love rice cakes with almond butter, and potatoes and cheese and toast. You really like french fries. And you fuss when you want more of something. You try everything, but you definitely don't like everything and you've started tossing things on the ground!!

You are still an incredible sleeper! Nothing much has changed there. 

Wearing // You're wearing 12 month pants and 9 month onesies, but I'm thinking you may be able to wear 12 month onesies. And you're in 12 month pajamas and size 3 diapers and still wearing your cloth diapers, but they sure do leak now after so many washes and so many kids, so I'm constantly changing your diaper.  

Loving // You really love this little egg shaker thing. You hold onto it so tight with your little hands and freak out when you drop it or it's out of your reach. You love peek a boo and playing on the floor and rolling around to get yourself places. You love pulling on the light cord above your crib.

Loathing // You really loathe when you lose your grip on your little egg shaker! And you really don't like when your brothers are rough with you. They are always picking you up and sitting you up and laying you on the ground.

Nicknames // Connie bearsy

Doing // You are pivoting and rolling all around to get where you need to go. And you are getting yourself stuck in things as you push yourself backward. You are waving and clapping and kissing me. You grab the side of my face and plant your mouth on me. It's the best. And you are holding your bottle. You get really fussy when you want your bottle and arch your back if you're on the ground and as soon as I hand your bottle to you, you hold onto it and start gulping it down. You need some assistance and can't hold it the whole time!

Doctors Appointments // 2 occupational therapy appointments, 1 pulmonology appointment at Children's, and 1 pre-anesthesia appointment at Children's (prep for your surgery) - and that's it! You'll have more appointments next month, but I'm just embracing the open calendar. 

Milestones // You survived your first Buskirk family getaway! And you also survived alot of your brother's tball games!
