Connor's stuffed friends

First of all, let me start this entry by posting a link to all of our July pictures. I have shared some on here and some I have not, so here is all of July in case you are interested: http://www.kodakgallery.com/ShareLanding.action?c=13rxpw45.c4axskpx&x=0&y=-54qn37&localeid=en_US

Taylor was never into stuffed animals much. He liked some, but never really got attached. Connor on the other hand, loves all things stuffed. He started out sleeping with just one dog, then he wanted Mickey to be in his bed with him and now he has all sorts of friends that he shares his bed with. Sometimes in the morning he invites them down to breakfast and he pushes them around in his shopping cart to accompany him for other parts of the day. Then at the end of the day we have to go back down to collect them all to bring back upstairs. He then lays them all down to bed in his crib on the outside edge before I say good night to all of them. His friends are his stuffed dog (the original dog), stuffed Mickey and Minnie Mouse, a stuffed Hippo that Taylor won out of a machine at Jellystone Park in St. Louis and a stuffed Cubs bear that his daddy bought him. It is really the cutest! I have posted a picture of him w/ his friends in front of his bed as I was putting him to bed for the night. Also, if you are wondering why I still have my 2 1/2 year old in a crib w/ the sides up, you obviously haven't met Connor :) As long as he isn't getting out on his own, we aren't showing him the way out! As soon as he figures this out on his own, keeping him in his room will be interesting. Until then-he will remain in his cribs with the sides fully up, with all of his "friends" to keep him company. I LOVE MY CONNOR!
