Thanksgiving 2008 (albeit a bit late)

yes, ladies & gents, this is the Thanksgiving post...only a month late (or more).  Here are the pictures of the day.  We had a lot of fun with the close family.  They were thrilled to share in Connor's first Thanksgiving!  This was also the first day Connor ate "big boy" food from the table, but i still fed him.  I like feeding him - that means he's still my baby :)

There's also a few fun things that i think are worth sharing since i think Connor is so darn cute!

 

Thanksgiving morning - playing in the saucer

Nunna coming in with the Dressing - YUM!!

morning snack: Cheerio's!!

talking (probably to himself)

Laughing at Mimi (our wonderful photographer at the time)

waiting on the real food, not just the bread

Connor's middle name should be MISCHEVIOUS...that's what he is!!

Here begins the pictures that are not necessarily from Thanksgiving, but are still cute!

Might be Thanksgiving even...can't remember.

getting so big!!!

Wondering why the drum is making noise...even though he just pitched it on the floor...wonder why??

Hanging out on the shoulders of Uncle Tyler. so fun!

Does this remind anyone else of Yogi Bear?  because it does me!

6 weeks

oh how time flies. this is a picture of Connor yesterday.  When he's fussy, he likes to hold onto someone's hand and since i needed to get ready, i gave him this little blankie and he fell fast asleep!  so, i woke up this morning and didn't even think about it being Connor's 6-week birthday! i didn't remember until "aunt morgan" write on my wall and reminded me. I can't believe that six precious weeks have passed. It is so amazing and i love every minute. i am so blessed to have a family who has supported my every decision and a son who is absolutely perfect in every way.  

i LOVE the BUMBO seat!  Jamie just picked it up for us at Belle Aire's consignment sale.  usually, we dont have a blanket in it, but my mom thought his legs might get cold, so, here it is!  He can sit in it for about a minute, then his head bobbles and we feel bad for him, so we take him out.

This is my brother Tyler.  He is a great uncle and he's NOT a thug.  He just wanted to match Connor.  Connor loves his uncle Tyler.  They watch sports center together.

This is Connor's first friend Abby Williams.  They were due on the same day, but ended up being born 16 days apart.  Abby is older, but based on size, Connor is way bigger.  

This is...the first smile!!!  We captured it when he was about 2 weeks old and he wasn't really smiling all the time at all.  He's really just started smiling and cooing.
