Who's taller?


I was actually surprised that Boji is still taller than Connor. This kid has mastered the art of door opening, if a doors not locked he's through the door.

Faith Community


This morning we officially became members of Faith Community Church in West Chester. We feel really blessed to have found a warm community to worship with and a place where Connor will go grow up in Sunday School.

My first pillow


Connor has been sleeping with his pillow pet since Christmas, I didn't really think he slept on it but I got this pictures the other night.

He is at a real fun age right now, if we think he is tired we say "Connor do you want to go night night?" If he is ready he will start climbing up the stairs and go into his room....too cute.

Winter colds


Is it just daycare kids or all kids who have snot noses all winter long? I really thought this year Connor wouldn't get sick since he was sick all last winter. Here is a pic of him the other day laying low with Daddy.

15 Months

Connor hasn't had his well visit yet to Dr. Saluke but he has spent so much time at Childrens Hospital I have his 15 month statistics:
He weights 23 and a half pounds and is 2 feet 5 inches tall. I wrote down 11 words today that he can clearly say. He can say more than that but it wouldn't be clear enough for someone but Ray & I to understand. Words are; thank you, purple, night night, daddy, mommy, bye, hi, no, nose eyes and ball.

He can finally point to his: belly button, hair, nose, eyes, teeth and his favorite, tounge.

Boji

Connor & Boji are definitely buddies. Having a dog is a lot of work but Connor really does love her.

The diagnosis

Today we met with the Rheumatologist (a doctor who specialies in soft tissues) at Cincinnati Childrens and final got a diagnosis that we believe to be what Connor has. Acrocyanosis. The root word, Cyanosis is the blueing of skin that is what he keeps being seen for.

Acrocyanosis refers to a persistent blue or cyanotic discoloration of the extremities, most commonly occurring in the hands although also occurring in the face and feet as well. [1] [2] [3] The principal form of acrocyanosis is that of a benign cosmetic condition,[1] sometimes caused by a relatively benign neurohormonal disorder.[2] Regardless of its cause, the benign form typically does not require medical treatment

2nd Definition: Acrocyanosis is a decrease in the amount of oxygen delivered to the extremities. The hands and feet turn blue because of the lack of oxygen. Decreased blood supply to the affected areas is caused by constriction or spasm of small blood vessels.

The doctor said there is nothing we can do and he will out grow it probably before his 7th birthday.

or throwing.

Happy New Year



I've started the New Year off bad...haven't blogged in over a week! We spent New Year's Eve at the Zielgers. Connor got to play with 3 other kids and what did he want to do...climb.
