.: Daddy's Boy

Okay, my little man is such the Daddy's boy! I just love it! I think that it's so adorable how excited Conner gets when Jess gets home from work, or how sad Conner gets when Jess leaves for work in the mornings. Conner just wants so much to be just like his dad! If Jess is wearing a hat then Conner wants to be wearing his hat. It just cracks me up! Really it's probably that by the end of the day Conner is so sick of me that when Jess comes home he's just glad to have someone else to play with! : ) Right now Jess is putting up some beader board around our kitchen and dining room, and it's so funny because Conner just marches over there and just watches him and grabs tools and wants to help. It's crazy too how every day that goes by Conner looks more and more like Jess. They even have some of the same habits and personality traits! Jess is a perfectionist in everything that he does. I really like this about him because whenever he does a project or something he never settles for less then perfection in the end, and when he's playing a game or trying to do something he can't stop until he's accomplished a victory or perfection! : ) Well yes Conner is the exact same! He accomplished going up and down the stairs by the young age of 11 months! He's so stubborn because he doesn't want to go down the stairs on his bum or his tummy, but he wants to go down and up them like we do by walking upright! Yes in the early stages of his attempts he had us all nervous but now he's a master! ; ) He would spend forever just over at the stairs by himself going up and down them at his G-ma and G-pa Walters' house. He had us all cracking up! He's like this in a lot of things like climbing up onto a chair, or like how a month or so ago he finally managed to jump out of his crib. Who knows how long he's been trying to do that! I love seeing him accomplish these things though because yes just like his dad he gets the cutest face of victory! ; )
