...::: Connor Prosise ~ 8 - 10 Months :::...

If one feels the need of something grand,
something infinite,
something that makes one feel aware of God,
one need not go far to find it.
I think that I see something deeper,
more infinite, more eternal than the ocean
in the expression of the eyes of a little baby
when it wakes in the morning and coos or laughs
because it sees the sun shining on its cradle.

- Vincent Van Gogh

This page contains pictures of Connor from eight to ten months old. Connor met many new people during these months. He is a very social baby and is always happy to meet new people... and meet them again later since he doesn't remember them! J He particularly likes other children. As of yet, he has not experienced any stranger anxiety. Important milestones achieved these months include sprouting four more new teeth for a total of six teeth already. We're also very happy to report that Connor has finally mastered the fine art of flipping in both directions (back-to-tummy and tummy-to-back) and sitting on his own! Yippee!
