Just Cant Get Enough.

Yummy in the Tummy.

Wow...I know what you are thinking.
His dad helped him finish this plate, 
although I am sure he could have if we let him.

I think this kid could win a chubby bunny contest!

Look at that bite!

The best $22 purchase so far.

Look at that smile!

...and the hair!!! :0)

Saturday morning I finally got my camera out and captured a few pictures of Connor with two of his latest favorite things. 

Little Wrestler.

Boys Wrestling...I think Connor is going to win.

Yep...I was right ;)

Oh, but Uncle Scott got the glasses!

It is pretty awesome seeing Connor laugh so much wrestling with his Uncle Scott. Scotty came to visit us for the afternoon after a job in SD - It was fun seeing him, watch him play with Connor...and being treated to one of our old favorites...Hodad's! 
Oh yeah. Connor got a new patch too - it has a race car on it. Connor is beginning to love playing with cars.

Temecula Visit with Grandpa.

Mum, Can I go swimming with the ducks?

Daddy holding on tight because somebody wanted in the water.

The boys feeding the ducks - Connor feeding himself.
I guess he was hungry...When is he not!?

Playing in the grass.

Dinner with Gramps.

On Tuesday night, we started a new tradition  of meeting half way in Temecula to see Grandpa Perry. Soon it will be with Grandma and Grandpa, but Grandma is too busy having lots of fun in Costa Rica! It was a fun afternoon of feeding the ducks, playing in the grass and eating an awesome dinner together. Thanks Grandpa - We look forward to doing it again when Grandma gets back.

10 months old.

Connor's 1st True Sushi Experience.
Chopsticks, imitation crab, sticky rice!

Yummy...Kirin Sushi.

My 10 month old present from Mum and Dad

Weeeeeeee........

Its a swing party!

Learning how to hold a baseball bat.

Look at that stance ;)

Playing with Rob's skateboard.

Skaters rule.

Time flies. Mike and I woke up yesterday morning talking about what in the world are we going to do for Connor's 1st birthday. Its right around the corner - and sometimes hard to believe we have had Connor in our life for almost a year. 
Today Connor is 10 months...and getting more fun each day. 
What is Connor up to these days...
.He is saying three words very clearly - mama or mum, dada, ugh - oooooo!!!! There is a lot of baby talk going on, but nothing we can understand. 
.He is getting so much better at walking - 14 steps is the most so far. 
.He loves to give hugs and kisses!
.He loves to empty anything, toy box, my underwear drawer, purse, tupperware cabinet, bookshelf...it is entertainment for a good 20 minutes.
.EAT! He can eat, and is getting picky about what he wants - Peas are his absolute favorite!
.Playing outside. Our new place has a screen door, so on nice days I leave the door open and Connor will just sit by the door waiting to go outside.
.He loves to point at everything, making every second a teachable moment!
.Chugging his Klean Kanteen!

Mike and I are loving just about everything he does! He is one RAD little boy!

Spiderman is becoming more brave.


Spiderman, aka Connor, has been walking the walls for a while now...letting go and taking some steps when he is feeling brave. This past week he is getting extremely brave...he is up to 14 steps! Today had to be the best - Connor and I were playing with a toy in the waiting room at the doctors office and a little girl walked in (she was really cute) and he walked with no hesitation, no wobble all the way across the room - a good 10 feet! Lock up your daughters dads ;)
Trying to get a video of Connor has been sooo hard - everytime I turn on the video camera, he decides to crawl so this is as good as it gets!!!

Back to OB.

Our new home.

Cheers!

Walking in the parade :)

Hanging out at the beach

Connor's best buddy! They are young...its okay to kiss!

He loves the beach!

YAY for OB!

It feels kinda funny to be back. We are finally settled in our new place and can call it home. It has been a wonderful 1st weekend...sunshine, old friends, waves, huge margaritas, kite parade and festival, beach, dinner party to break in our mini kitchen :0), crafts (hehe) - The Perry's are enjoying life.

Bye Bye Santa Barbara.

He is wearing a patch now for an hour a day!
This kid has gone through a lot in the last 2 weeks!

So sad to leave all of our friends!
It is hard to get a group shot at this age ;)

Taking a break from packing and went to say bye to the ducks
It was an awesome experience as this was the first time he had glasses on :)

Our break was a little long :0) but much needed

Two of our professional movers :0) Mike and Craig

bye bye to our 1st house together as husband and wife
as well as a family
this was a little emotional, i was not expecting it

Picture 1 of The Truck
Only one thing fell out! Should I say Thanks to Scott who drove our goods to SD or thanks to Craig for the man who played tetris for 4 hours packing the truck and trailer

Okay Okay...I know what you are thinking (GHETTO! Do you know how many people gave that response on the road!) It worked. It was free. 
Moving is never fun, and this made it extremely funny!

Wow. I never knew moving could be so hard and exhausting with a 9 month old little boy. I am so thankful my mom came a week early to help pack up my house...Connor was so funny, trying to unpack all the boxes as we packed them up. So we were thinking, he would be great help when we got to San Diego to help unpack - wrong. This house is so much bigger than where we were living and everything is new now so he is crawling and getting into everything...also trying to walk (and its all hardwood so I am nervous!) He is doing awesome though and has his very own room! 
I will post soon with pictures of our new home!
