Our sweet Conner James is 11 months old!! It's so hard to believe! This month has been so special as he calls me mama on purpose now! When he wakes up in the morning, the first thing he does is call out to me!
nothing melts my heart more, and leaves me running to him! His big physical milestone this month is stair climbing and big time cruising on everything!! Also he unfortunately is showing signs of self weaning already, I need him to make it 1 more month
pray we can get there! His love for actual food has grown, and his desire to feed himself, but we still have no way for him to drink liquids as he refuses to drink from every kind of bottle, sippy cup, straw cup, and regular cup. We have a month left to master it, I've been trying diligently since he was 6 months old. Conner loves throwing the tennis ball for Lucy and climbing her like a mountain....as for Lucy, that is her least favorite new skill of his this month
. He is 19 pounds and wears size 12 month clothes! Cheers to 11 months of Conner James!

Where did my spoon go?
My fourth Mother's Day but my first with my baby in my arms
. There are no words to describe how special today is. Today is so monumental, I prayed for this day for so so long hoping it would come. Being a mom is absolutely everything I ever dreamed of and more. It is an honor to be this sweet boys mom
I always dreamed of being a mom and wondered what it would be like, it seemed so grown up, with so much important responsibility. I knew being a mother was always going to be my calling, and that I would put everything I have into being the best mom to my kids, and they would be my whole world. I have 100% wholeheartedly dove in head first to this mom'n thing and I am 100% there in every way. I look forward to the future and have found something I feel very good at. What I've learned about being a mom is there is so much self sacrifice and realizing that I've lived my life, now my son is here and it's my responsibility to give him the best childhood so he can be able to happily live his life and have his own kids someday. And I am more than happy to give up what used to make me happy for him. Now that I'm a mom I find joy in the simplest things and my priorities and interests have shifted. With being a mom I wasn't prepared for the immense love and desire you have for your kids to be happy and ok. You'd give them anything you can. Conner has taught me so much more already than I will ever be able to teach him in his life, has taught me what pure love is.

My heart swells beyond its limits and I would do anything to get to him. The greatest honor and title of my life is mama and I can't wait for the future with my babies. I'm just so grateful #connerjamesraborn

My Tennessee boy!

Library time!!
My happy boy!
Conner was stung on his finger by a wasp in our bathroom. When I looked over he was holding it. Yikes.
Yogurt is his favorite food!
Fighting nap time so hard!
With so much love,
Kayla Raborn!
