Connor -
This entire blog is for you when you are old enough to read, I thought you would like to know the story of your father and me! I am the author of our story and yours atleast for now! So let's recap the past two years ( You will be 2 in less than 2 months)...
My intention was to start this when you were born but, as you will find out things were very crazy then.. Would not change a thing about it though :)
So, let's see where should I start, Your father and I met back when we were 16 years old at Cedar Point (Loved it then, after having you my body just can't take it the same.. But as you get older Im sure we will return there alot and make you a fan of Cedar Point as most everyone is).. After dating for many years we took a family vacation to Hawaii (To visit family) and your dad proposed.. It was July of 2007 only our second night there!! Most people where surprised in February of 2008 when they learned that you (Connor William) was growing in my tummy.. Your father and I on the other hand were ok, with the situation. We knew we were going to be married and were ready to welcome you into our "new" life as a family of 3... You were born on September 5, 2008.. You weighted 7lbs and 6ounces..Cutest thing we had ever seen! Your dad was finishing up school at Cincinnatti College of Mortuary Science so, it is without a doubt that we had our special time to bond while you were younger.. Im glad I had that time, you are such a daddy's boy now ( 22 months). Your dad graduated in March of 2009 and we were married in July 2009.. As of October of 2009, your father and I decided it was a good time for me to take time off work and stay at home and raise you.. So that's what i did... It took a little adjusting and time to get use to how our day to day life would be..
So, this is about where we are now..Im sure there are lots of details I left out about these first two years of your life.. You have done so much and I could write on forever.. But this is where we will start. I will try and write weekly about things you have done and milstones you are passing!!
The picture with this post, is a picture of you in the toy store at downtown disney! We took a 9 day vacation to Florida to visit your Aunt Jen, Unlce Bob and your cousin Johnathan.. You had an amazing vacation and got to see so much! We spent our days looking for golf balls, swimming in the ocean, pool and hot tubs..
