...one! Aunt Kati says that in less than two weeks, there will be a very special day called my birthday. That will be one year since I was born. Wow, can you believe it? I have been so busy learning new things, that I didn't realize a whole year had gone by. Maybe to you, a year doesn't seem like that long, but to me it's my whole life!
Aunt Kati says that when you have a birthday, you have a party and get presents, so I'm looking forward to that part. I love when my friends come to visit me for something fun like a party!
If you can't come to my party (or even if you can), and you want some ideas of things to get me for a present, you can look at my Target wish list here. Or you can give me clothes (and they don't even have to be new...I love getting clothes from my friends that they wore before but that don't fit them anymore). I need 12 - 18 month sizes (for warm weather) or 18 - 24 month sizes (for neutral or cold weather). Thanks in advance!

Feeding myself
I am working on learning to feed myself. I am really good at eating with my fingers, but now I am practicing with spoons and forks. I'm pretty good at it so far. Here's an example.

Hoppy Easter!
Aunt Kati told me this morning that today is a very special day. It must be one of the really special ones, because there are decorations in our house for it. Here's an example, which happens to include some really cute pictures of me!
As usual, on special days, I get to wear special clothes, and one of the special bibs, and I also get little gifts and cards. I like special days!
Today, the special day is called Easter. My friend Marcy gave me this cute outfit to wear for Easter. Aunt Kati gave me a cute plastic egg with a chick hatching out of it. Here I am in the outfit, having fun with the egg.
Here I am looking at the card I got from my Tutu Katy. (Tutu means Grandma, in case you don't know...)
In this picture, you can see the inside of the card. It says peep-a-boo. Isn't that cute?
Finally, here I am in the cute bib!

Three steps!
Today, I did something new. Aunt Kati said it was a big deal. I took three steps, not holding on to anything or anyone! I was standing up at the coffee table in the center of the living room. Then I turned around and went toward the TV (even though I know I'm not allowed to play with it!); after that, I went back to crawling. Apparently, this is called "walking" and I will learn to do it better and do it a lot. Aunt Kati says she's sorry that she doesn't have any pictures of me walking for this blog, but she wasn't expecting it me to suddenly do that, so she didn't have the camera ready. She said she'll put some pictures here sometime soon (first, I have to do it again, which I haven't so far...)

Connor's Hat
On the cruise mommy and I played with my sun hat. Of course grandma Lyn and mommy thought I was adorable! You decide!

Another kind of cruisin'!
I went on vacation with Mommy, Grandma Lyn and Aunt Kati for a week. We went on a big ship, which is called "cruising". It was fun, and I liked the way the ship rocked back and forth. I slept really well every night! Here are some pictures from our big trip!
Mommy and me in our suite on the first day of the cruise. You can see Charleston Bay out the window, and a sailboat going by, too.
One of the things that you do a lot on a cruise is EAT. Here's a picture of me eating a biscuit while Mommy, Grandma Lyn, and Aunt Kati ate lunch.
I really liked looking at the water through this big window.
Aunt Kati took lots of pictures of me while I was looking out the window, so after a while I turned around to see what she was doing, and that's when she got this cute picture of me.
The first place we went on the cruise was an island called Great Stirrup Cay. There was a nice beach there, and some shady places with hammocks (which is where we hung out most of the day). We ate lunch there, and I played and took naps in my tent. Here's a picture of me with Granda Lyn on the island.
One of the places we stopped on our cruise was called Nassau. It's in the Bahamas. While we were there, we went on a semi-submarine, which had big windows so we could see the fish, coral and sharks (yes, we even saw sharks!) through them. I liked those windows a lot, too!
Another thing that people do on cruises is go to the spa. Mommy went and had a pedicure, which means they made her toes pretty. Aunt Kati and I went to visit while she was there, to take a picture and get a hug.
After Mommy's pedicure, we went to hang out in the coffee bar, where Aunt Kati and Mommy drank a smoothie (they said it was delicious), and Aunt Kati took this really cute picture of me. You can see my new teeth!
One of the other cool things you see on cruises is towel animals. This monkey was everybody's favorite! (The balloons and decorations were in our suite because we were celebrating Grandma Lyn's birthday.)
Well, that's it for the cruisin' summary. Hope you enjoyed some of the stories of our trip!

I'm cruisin'
In the language that people use when they talk about baby development, "cruising" means "walking along while holding on to furniture". I am excellent at it. I also really like playing with coasters, as you will see in these pictures.
