JULY 2010

We've had a great summer so far,

lots of sun last week which meant lots of swimming!

And Our first trip out in the boat this summer,

I of course forgot my camera for that trip but here are some other pics.

Connor is 3.5 months and has been rolling over for the past month

and now he likes to do it ALL THE TIME!

He is even trying to crawl but he has had many face plants lately

so hopefully he figures it out soon.

Lauren likes to lay next to him, here they are watching TV together.

Connor loves ESPN just like his daddy.

Hes a smiley little guy, especially when looking at mommy or daddy

4th of July Lauren, Cameron & Jake @ The Gadsbys

Watching fireworks later on the 4th @ Scott & Mariahs (Jane's Daughter)

They loved the fireworks especially connor,

but they both fell asleep right when the actually show started.

Lauren now has floaties and can "swim" by herself.

The first day we went over there she fell in without anything on

and of course she wasnt scarred she wanted to go back in, shes a crazy one.

Grandma Patti, Connor, Lauren & Joe

Connor loves the water, even though he just kind of sits there.

Happy Fathers Day!

So for one of Joes fathers day presents we got some secret pictures taken of the kids once again trying to get just one good one of them together, below you will see what happened. They turned out much better than the last ones. Happy Fathers Day!

See he does smile!

Oh sisterly love

End of May 2010

So its been quite a while since I've put anything on here because weve been pretty busy.

Connor is growing up so quick and is so different from Lauren, he is in the 80% for height and 75% for weight, then theres lauren who was in the 30% at his age. He is very alert and hates to sleep or be put down (again way different from Lauren) but hes getting better everyday and is finally smiling and babbling at us from time to time. Lauren Is still working on potty training and now sleeps in her own bed all night long, she loves being a big girl but every once in a while tells me shes still a baby so I have to hold her too.

A few weeks ago Connor had a fever of 102 all night and the Dr office sent us into the ER, it turned out to be nothing but I guess when they are that young they check for everything. It was pretty scary but we found out we love the Mary Bridge Childrens Hospital in Tacoma, they were amazing we were only there for about 4 hours! Thats usually how long wevd had to wait at other hospitals. Thank goodness nothing was wrong, the poor little guy had an IV in for the whole week and lots of follow up Dr appts but we think it just made him stronger.

And yes they even have infant hospital gowns!

Lauren holding Connor (kind of)

May 2010

I cant believe its already May. Connor is now one month old and loves to try and stand and hold his head up on his own, hes a lot stronger than Lauren and bigger too! Hes already wearing 3 month size clothes!

Smiling in his sleep, he has a lot of good dreams!

Lauren & Daddy on the Carousel

Connors 1st photo shoot

Here are the rest of the pictures from our photo shoot.

Lauren wasnt having the best day so as you can see most of them are of Connor.

Hopefully we can go back in a month or so and get at least one good picture of the two of them together, well see..................................

The one picture we got of them together, great isnt it!......

(If only you could see Joes hand behind connor holding her there long enough to take a picture)

Oh what a fun day that was!

Lauren & Connor Kisses from Daddy

So we went and got Connors first pictures taken,

I will post them all later but for now here is one that joe took

with him and pretty much the same picture he took with lauren

at her first photo shoot.

Connor was 2.5 weeks in his picture but Lauren was almost 2 months old in hers!

They definetly have the same hair and they probably weighed about the same here too!

Lauren loves her baby brother (for now)

Even though Lauren has asked us to take the baby back to its home, she still loves him.

Hope it lasts!
