7-21-08 First outing!

Connor chillen on the couch with his dad after breakfast. He just discovered his thumb.
First pediatrician appointment (other than at the hospital). He was born at 5 lb. 3 oz. and dropped to 4 lbs. 15 oz. and now he's back up to 5 lbs. 2 oz.!! They confirmed he's a happy, healthy little baby! Connor criscend the office by peeing on the exam table too... oops
After our lactation appointment we were starving, so Jason and I went out to lunch at Perkins... Connor just slept the entire time. Then he went shopping for the first time at Babies R' Us and slept the entire time we were there too. Gotta love those milk comma's!

We ended our busy day with a peaceful walk around our neighborhood with Connor and the dogs.

Just waking up in the morning... big yawn

Grandma and Grandpa Kortus came up to visit for the day and had a blast holding him and watching all his cute facial expressions. I think they're pretty happy with their grandson =)

7-19-08 We're home!

Nala and Chloe eagerly waiting to greet the newest member of the family. They were both very excited to see him... they both love kids and babies and they're very gentle dogs! Chloe (the lab) just sits and stares at him with her tail wagging like crazy.

Connor after meal time... Jason calls this his rapper look

My perfect little baby napping again after his belly is full.

Connor is the absolute perfect baby! he only cries for 3 reasons: he's hungry, he's wet or he's cold. This is him napping with a full tummy.



Chillen with daddy.
Connor fed, bathed, dressed and ready for the ride home.

Connor Nathan was born 7-16-08!!!

At 7:30 pm on 7-16 my water broke. We arrived at the hospital around 8:30 pm. They hooked me up to machines and verified I was in labor and the doctor came in to visit with us and began prepping me for my c-section surgery and he was born at 11:09 pm! He weighed 5 pounds 3 ounces and was 18.5 inches long. He scored great on his newborn tests.

7-11-08 No baby today!

Well, we had our growth ultra sound this morning and he's growing! He gained 1 pound 2 ounces in the last 2 weeks and now weighs 5 pounds 3 ounces! Yeah! The doctor was really happy with his progress so they are leaving him in the oven until the 24th now. I figure he should weigh around 6 1/2 pounds by then, which is about what I expected him to weigh at delivery since my brother and I were both around 6 pounds. I'm just soooo thrilled that he's growing and healthy and I won't be bringing home a 4 pound little fry now!

7-10-08 37 weeks

This could be the last belly pictures we take... our Dr. apt is at 8:30am and we find out if our little guy is going to be coming into the world on 7-11 or waiting 2 more weeks for 7-24!
