Conor nears the Terrible Two’s
To see Conor a few months back in a lovely video by Kat, take a look here. Right now it has been reported, though I have not seen it myself (I’m not the best at picking out unclear things, anyway, and if it is ‘vague’ I like to be sure of it), that Conor has gone beyond “Mama” and “Dada” to be able to say “more!”. He also does more than make off-key ‘aaah’s when he sings to himself all the time. One can clearly hear the tune to songs he hears a lot, such as “Twinkle, twinkle little star” and even the songs I sing to him when I change him, such as my rather bland melody (perhaps that makes it easier for him to sing) of “Cleaning the Conor” and the ever-popular “Powdered Buns” song.
If his vocabulary is slow to develop, he is making it for it in leaps and bounds. Literally. He’s able to go up and down stairs very easily (he can walk down them with a helping hand, but otherwise he prefers to crawl up and down them). He’s very agile and can run over gravel, up and down our hilly lawn (barefoot, at that!). He doesn’t very much, and when he does, he just gets right back up again. He is as tough as ever! Visiting my bio-parent’s lake house he fell on a concrete walk and even made his knees pink by doing it… but he just got back up, looked around, and kept going without even crying.
He prefers going barefoot to shoes- even over gravel, pavement, and pine-cones! That’s me boy!
And yes, I know that’s what most of you were interested in hearing about now. Haha! Hope your Conor hit was satisfying!

Hey- yea, apparently alot of people have known about it for a while… I actually just heard it recently and can’t get enough of it.
oh man, when babies get to the stair climbing stage–forget about it!
