Growing Boy!

Connor is in the middle of a growth spurt right now, which is really exhausting because he's eating almost twice as much and waking up all night, as well as sleeping less because he's eating more.  He's growing up in so many other ways though!

He talks to us all the time, especially when he's with Patrick.  He loves to look at him and talk and talk.  Connor also loves to have conversations with the ceiling fans, but much more often with Patrick.

One thing that Connor inherited from his dad was his hands.  Patrick and really nice long, thin fingers, with a ridiculously overlarge thumb, as seen here, in a picture from shortly after we got engaged:

And Connor hand from a couple days ago:

 

The good lens for our camera was messed up and made half of the frame of some pictures blurry, so since Connor has been born, and a little before, we've been using our friend Jason's kit lens.  I finally sent it in to be cleaned on July 6th, and I was really excited to get it back last Friday.  Now I can take a lot closer up pictures from farther away, as well as better pictures in dimmer light.  I took a bunch of Connor, but as he still hates the flash, and likes to move, many of them are blurry.  Here are best, with many more to come.
