Daddy shares an office with his best friend from high school, Tony. Uncle Tony and Daddy talk about me almost every day at work. Uncle Tony and his family stopped by the house the other day to meet me. He held me and I was very good.

Mommy and I are going to visit Daddy at his office tomorrow so his co-workers can meet me. Since Uncle Tony shares an office with Daddy, he will be collecting an admission fee for anyone visiting me tomorrow.

Mommy is also going to stop by Mimi’s office tomorrow so her co-workers can meet me. Daddy tells me that admission there will be twice as much there. 😉

Love,

Connor

Springtime is finally here in Virginia! Victoria took Connor for a walk this afternoon. She is now strolling around our neighborhood (about 1.5 miles) with Connor. He stays awake for most of it and they both enjoy it.

When I got home from work today, I asked Victoria if she and Connor wanted to go for another walk around the neighborhood. So, we put Connor in the stroller and we strolled around the neighborhood this evening. Connor was awake during the entire trip (about 20 mins or so).

Here is Connor in his work-out gear. Victoria’s cousin Kris bought this for Connor. It is for a 3 month old, but we figured he could grow into it. Our future athlete!

We went to Target after this trip. Connor was awake in Target and behaved very well (like his grandparents would expect). Have I mentioned how perfect my (oops, our) son is? We went home, had dinner as Connor slept and then we gave him a bath and fed him. He fell asleep as I was reading to him tonight and is now in bed. Mommy and Daddy are heading to bed now.

Connor called my bluff last night and went down very easily. No crying or fussing.

I put him to bed at midnight and he was still sleeping when I woke up at 6:30am. Victoria woke him shortly after that and gave him his breakfast.

I guess I will continue to wait for that “all nighter”.

It is 11:15pm and Connor is getting his last feeding of the night. This is about 1.5 hrs later than normal. Mimi and Grandpa visited tonight and they fed him around 7pm and then he quickly fell asleep. He slept for nearly 3.5 hours without waking and when I tried to wake him, he didn’t want anything to do with it.

So, for those of you who work with me…stop by my office and see how bloodshot my eyes are in the morning. I am betting that tonight will be one of those nights where we get very little sleep because Connor is going to be wide awake.

Wish us the best!

Here is a video of me trying to wake Connor around 10:30pm after he had been asleep for 3 hours straight.

I have been a little hesitant about talking about how “perfect” Connor is because I was afraid I would jinx him/us.  Don’t get me wrong, Connor cries and can be fussy at times, but overall he is PERFECT!

As most of you know, bedtime has been quite uneventful for us each night.  This past week it has even gotten better.  Connor has been “wide awake” each night we put him to bed this past week, but he seems to understand it is bedtime and has not even cried once this week.  We do the routine I mentioned earlier, I lay him down (sometimes awake other times he is nearly asleep) but the outcome is always the same.

He usually falls asleep pretty quickly and does not wake for about 5.5 to 6.5 hours.  We actually got 7 hours the other night.  AMAZING!  That is my boy!  I am so proud of him and think he is outstanding and PERFECT!

Connor and I watched ODU play William & Mary in basketball today.  We wore our ODU basketball shirts and tried to cheer them on to victory.  Unfortunately, ODU lost.  But as you can see by the pictures, Connor was too tired to watch the ending of the game.  (Probably a good thing.)

Check out the photo gallery for pictures of Daddy and Connor.

…which Mommy does not want to lay claim to.

Connor has the “double chin” that Daddy has developed over the past 4-5 months. Daddy showed Mommy Connor’s double chin and Mommy was quick to point out that it is “like father, like son”.

Oh well…time to go to the gym!

That is good news for Connor, because it shows he is starting to fill out and is definitely gaining weight from the breastfeeding!!!

so here is your weekly Connor (and Brenna) fix.

This is me and my cousin Brenna:

Mommy’s family visited from Florida this past weekend and here are a couple of pictures Grandpa took:

More to come later…
