Nobody gets a smile like Nana!

Ok, here are some adorable pictures of Connor. He really only smiles like this when he's with his Nana (Nick's mom). She's so patient and is so good at making him cooh! I am so grateful to have such wonderful family around to watch Connor grow!

Big Brother, Colton.

Colton is just now getting used to his baby brother enough to want to participate. He'll offer to do things like give him his passy, talk to him, and tell me he's spit up all over himself! It amazes me how much they favor each other.....and therefore, favor their daddy!

Connor is a kicker!

Take a look at Connor kicking up a storm! He is such a happy, active baby boy.

Visit from my parents.

My parents came to visit and we had a great time. Dad got to meet Connor, his new grandson. Mom got to spoil him with lots of kisses and love. On Saturday, it was beautiful so we all went to the zoo. We saw almost everything before we had tired ourselves out enough to go home. The main goal was to let Colton see the Zebra's and the Giraffes because those were his favorites. Cheyenne, Colton and Connor were all asleep before we got home. Later that evening, we went to one of our favorite restaurants and had a great time. Really it was just a nice weekend of visiting.

Needless to say, we were sad to see them go!

Connor started daycare.

This past Wednesday, Connor started daycare. We starting off gradually and he's only going for half days right now. I was surprisingly NOT a basket-case! He seemed real happy and he smiled at his new teacher, Bonita. There are only a few babies in his class and that makes me feel real good.

I do carry around this empty feeling with me and feel a little weird not having him with me all the time. I miss him so much. The time has really flown.

I'm not sure what I will feel like when I have to leave him for a full day. I hope I will keep it together. I guess the separation is harder on me than it is for him. However, I think he is like his daddy in that he's a pretty laid back little man. He doesn't seem to get worked up about much at this point. Which is totally not like me! :)

He is such an angel and I am so thankful for my beautiful little boy!

He Smiles and Almost Laughs!!!

My Babysitter

Everyone asks how the kids are doing with a brand new baby. Well, I don't think I could ask for a better helper. Cheyenne is the best big sister and biggest help I could ever ask for. She is always asking to hold Connor, feed him, dress him, etc... She is just wonderful. Some people depend on a swing or a bouncey chair, I have a devoted big sister.

Here are some of the many pictures I have of big sister and little Connor.
