And onward

Onward you grow!

How can you possibly be almost a month old? It does not seem possible...but I'm sure all new parents say that.

You had your first bath on Thanksgiving morning (tub bath). You didn't fuss or cry and were totally chill. I think maybe you liked it.

Everyone did however fuss over you at Thanksgiving at your Aunt Chesa's!
It was cute although I found myself hovering over people.....new mommy syndrome. It was a long day and I was definitely ready to go home overwards.

I must say that you impress me and your daddy more and more everyday. You have excellent muscle control of your neck and hold it up quite well. You hold your head up for long periods of time so you can stare at the mirrors and lights. Today I tried to give you your binky when you were fussing in your swing and you smiled at me and wouldn't take it. As soon as I backed away a little you fussed again. I tried to give you the bink and you smiled again. So rotten already!

Oh my love, my Connor, you are amazing.

Today is your Daddy's 39th b-day. We went to IHOP. This was your first outting to a restaurant and of course you did great! Daddy is taking this week off work although we planned for him to go back tomorrow. I am for sure not complaining! I'm super glad to have him home another week.

I need to finish up school stuff and other what nots and catch up on writing/putting stuff in your baby book. I don't know how I manage to stay so busy!
I'm also currently in the process of finding a sitter or sitters for you. I won't settle for just anybody :-) and am trying to plan work and school so that you are with a sitter the least amount of time possible.

I think the reason I am always so busy currently is because I'm working hard on learning all about cloth diapers and building your "stash". Quite frankly I'm excited about it. Disposables stink and your skin does not seem to like them too much anyway. I promise I will get ready for the "big cloth conversion" as I call it, asap!

Meanwhile, you just ate 4 oz and are swaddled and snoozing hard again. I suppose I should try to rest too.

I love you my sweet boy.
