Not Again...

I don't know if it's because Connor is a boy or a product of Josh, but he has had more falls and more black eyes than I can count. This one, however, is his worst yet and I am partly to blame. We were walking this morning and I had Connor strapped into his stroller. Like his high chair and shopping cart, he tries to stand up nonstop. (He's taken a tumble out of the shopping cart into the groceries before!) I kept pushing him down telling him he had to stay seated. I stopped suddenly and over the top he went, head first into the concrete. Of course it scared me when I saw his feet up in the air then him lying out on the sidewalk. Other than a black eye, he has a few scrapes and a knot on his head. We watched him for a while to make sure there were no concussions but he was okay. I sure hope my next child is not as daring as the Con-man!!

Here is the black eye (although it's pretty hard to tell) and some recent pictures:

He looks so grown up!! Everywhere we go he gets mistaken for a 2 year old!
Now when I pull out the camera, he says cheese and tries to get right up in front of it.
He opened his tunnel half way up then couldn't figure out how to get out. He stood up and started walking around and at first was frustrated, but Josh and I were laughing so hard, that he too thought it was pretty fun.
He LOVES driving his car! He makes noises and honks the horn and as you can sort of see puts his foot up on the dashboard.

Poor little guy! He is all boy! Hope that eye feels better soon!
