Just a little bit of fun!!!

We went to my Doctor appointment on Monday and learned that I am already starting to dilate and that if I don't go before the 15Th - we are scheduled to go in then and meet the newest member of our family! With that being said and only 15 days left until we get to meet our new little man we have been trying to get everything ready around here so make this all a smooth process and have everything we need here so, we won't have to run to the store for this and that- atleast for the 1st couple of days! But don't you worry I didn't forget about my little prince Connor boy! We have managed to get some quality play time in! The first picture above is Connor running while we were racing round the circle in our home! The second picture is Connor in MY BABY SHIRT - I can not quite remember how we ended up with this shirt - I think last fall it got cold one night at grandma and papa's house when Connor wanted to play outside so we wanted an extra layer on and grandma found mommy's shirt - Well he knows its my old shirt but, now that he is totally obsessed with the show Max & Ruby, it has turned in to his Max & Ruby shirt and like the only thing he wants to wear everyday! Me and Eric just think it is the cutest thing ever and fits him just perfect right now! We did get Sesame Street Live tickets for next week I don't know who is more excited me or Connor - I use to go to that like every year as a kid with my family and connot wait to share those memories with Connor and just see how happy he is to see the people he watches on tv like almost every morning! Just a few small things we have planned for us with Connor boy before the arrival of the new little one! I hope to post a couple more times before the baby but, we will see how everything goes. Until next time.... xxooxxooxxoo

Long time no talk?!?

Connor playing with his Napa Truck!

Where shall I begin? Alot - has happened since I last filled you in! Two weekends ago we had our Bedford Business Association Trade Fair - Mommy and Daddy have been working our booth at the trade fair for quite a few years now but, this would have been Connor's 2nd year! You did such a good job my little man - when people would stop at our booth to chat or say hi you would hand them our give-a-ways! I think they all enjoyed you! We also took time away from our booth to take you around to play games and check out the other booths! Our plan was only to make Connor spend one day with us there but, he had so much fun we let him come along all day on Sunday too! This past weekend we celebrated Daddy's 25th birthday! He got "things" done to his car from Connor and I... I think it was worth it since he can finally start to drive it again as spring has finally arrived:) Mommy and Daddy took a "night out" and went out to dinner and a movie for daddy's birthday. Sweet Connor got to spend the night at Papa and Grandma's house - where he now has claimed Uncle Tom's room as "his room". He is just so happy to call it his room - where he keeps his toys and has a big boy bed!

As for baby news: I go back to the Doctor on Monday so, should know more after them but, as of my last visit I have not gained any more weight but, the belly is still growing! I will admit I am getting so super happy for Zennon to join us, I will also love to have my ribs back - some of these kicks are really starting to take my breath away! Sleeping is starting to get less and less effective - I find myself waking up more than usual and tossing and turning alot. But with less than a month left I guess I should expect that! Mommy and Daddy did my belly cast this weekend - good time to spend together and even more fun doing to the belly cast! It has to dry for a couple days then we plan to decorate it and hang it in the boys room! Will post pictures later - I definatly think anyone that is pregnant to do one! I didn't know about it when I was pregnant with Connor and really wish I did it was alot of fun and will be super awesome when we actually finish it!

Until next week... Eric, Melissa and Connor!

Sleepy Connor!

Where's Connor?

Here he is!

Almost every morning I am awaken by the sweetest, cutest little man I know - Have I ever mentioned how much I love not having to set an alarm and being able to be woke up by this sweet little man on mine?! - Well anyways, every now and then I find myself awake before him ( I think more with this pregnancy - I get uncomfortable and find it harder to sleep) but, this time I was awake and got alot of things done that morning and still no Connor, he must of been worn out from the day before, however I went in to check on him to see if just maybe he was in there reading his book or playing with his stuffed animals he likes to do that in the morning to help him wake up. So, I was super surprised when this is what I saw, he has always been a crazy sleepers moving all around but this was so funny I had to snap a picture! It has been nice out the past couple of days so we were able to squeeze in a little time outside before his little nose and hands started to get cold:( GiGi was here this week on Tuesday and brought things to make / decorate cupcakes - I hear he loved it and we all had a wonderful dessert that evening - I wish I could of been here to snap a few photo's but, that is my time to get a little work done:) We also said good-bye to our Mariner this week ( Mommy and Daddy both had vehicles that were too small for kids and car seats so, when we found out about sweet little connor we had to turn in my car and we leased the mariner) well our lease was up so we said good-bye to that suv - I will miss it :) It was such a good vehicle for daddy, connor and me but, its ok we did lease a new Jeep - we feel very proud of ourselves they are made right here in Toledo and we are supporting local jobs as well and this country!

As for baby news: I have an update!!
I went to my doctor and everything is coming along just perfect! She said he was head down and has already dropped - she is thinking this may mean beginning of April rather than late April. I go back every week from now on so, she can keep a close eye on me. She was also very impressed in a two weeks span I gained 1/10 of a pound and yet my belly grew by 2cm. I am still measuring just about 2 weeks ahead of where I am so, that may be the 2 weeks early I get to meet this sweet bundle of joy! Connor helped me get all the baby clothes washed and hung in the closet so, we are all set for him to be here!!! Well since I get to see my doctor every week I may have more great news for you next week! Until next week - Hope everyone is having a good week:) We sure are!!! All Our love!
