Waits Family Annals

I’m really not going to waste much more space on this post other than to say, the kid is a whopping six months old! To celebrate, we went to the mall. He seemed to cooperate well with the photographer. It was fun to bring some stuff in from the house and see him respond and interact with everything around him. We noticed he is somewhat narcissistic because if he sees a picture of himself he fixates on it. He will stare, smile, and pant. Strange, but true.

We snapped a few pics. Nabbed the ones we could and get to enjoy the rest online. We hope you like staring at him as much as us. Point of pride: We had to sign a release so they can use his pictures in the store. *Can’t stop my head from inflating!* The kid keeps me humble, though. He is sitting in my lap while I type this. Taking a dump.

Enjoy the results:

Breakthrough day for Connor.  Everything is so new to us and exciting as we watch our baby boy slowly learn to do more things.  We have loved the grins, laughs, giggles, singing, talking, splashing, and sitting up! He loves watching the dogs play together and growl, he can’t keep his eyes off them. I have turned my head for a few minutes and come to find him grunting with his head in the seat.  I freak out, but I think he is pretty clueless, so he must be okay.  He gives the dogs more interest then they do with him.  They walk all over him when he is in his floor gym, but I just remind myself their day will come when Connor wants to pet/pull on their ears and tails.  HaHa the thought of him doing that to Wesley makes me giggle!  Oh how we love to document our baby’s every move. Enjoy!

We got Connor all ready for Church today. And, no, before you get all bent out of shape that we are going to post every outfit change or every bowl movement, we do not have plans to post every little thing that happens to him. Otherwise, I would be posting pictures of him crying right now. Not that he cries a lot. He just so happens to be crying right now.

Anyway, we put him in a striped button down shirt and no pants. Like Father like son. I also don’t like wearing pants. At Church, some people commented that “only Liz” would dress a newborn in a button down shirt. What?! I mean just cause we don’t dress our son in Poo(h), doesn’t mean it’s not cute. Right? More on my poohlosophy (Philosophy on Pooh) in some later post. It’s juicy. A juicy Pooh, perhaps… Anyway, check the pictures after the jump.

I just love some of these pictures of my mom with Connor, so I wanted them on the blog.  I love to post pictures, Im not so good with the writing thing.  My mom’s visit was so nice, and it was sad to see her go.  We look forward to the other set of Grandparents to arrive next week and for Connor to be Blessed at church by his Dad.  The start of this year has for sure been all about family, and it will be sad when things start slowing down a bit.
