2 months

Here are some pictures of Connor at 2 months old.

Connor

2 month stats:

weight: 10.96 pounds
height: 23 inches
head: 15.25

Time is going by so fast. I can't believe how big Connor is getting. A couple of weeks ago he had his 2 month appointment and got his shots. After his nap he screamed for almost 2 hours...it was sad. He goes to bed around 1045 and sleeps for 4-5 hours usually then 3 hours then 1 or 2 hours after that. I will take it! It is much better than before. He talks SO much now and giggles. It is so cute. He likes his mom and knows when I am not holding him. He is so cute!!

Playdate

Chelsea and Scarlett came and saw baby Connor for a few hours on Sunday!! It was so fun. Thanks for taking the time to come and see us!!! We had so much fun playing! And Connor got to play with his Aunt Lauren and visit his Grandma and Grandpa Farrell too!

Fun with cousins

Connor had so much fun when Emily came to visit with Aimee and Jack. Nanny took them all to the Dinosaur Museum and Connor slept the entire time in his seat. Aimee loved to try to calm him down by saying "don't freak out, i'm here, it's ok." It was really funny and cute. We had so much fun with them and were sad that they had to leave us.

My sister in law Emily took some cute pictures of Connor when he was 2 weeks old. They turned out so cute! Thanks Emily.

1 day old pictures

Connor would not stop screaming during these pictures so we didn't get very many good ones. I can not believe how different he looked that first day of life!! These were actually taken minutes before we found out he was sick and they took him away from us.

Baby Connor

He's finally home! After 11 days and 10 nights in the hospital baby Connor is home. Labor was great and was the easiest part of this whole process for me. I guess you can't have everything easy, right?! We were so lucky that we were able to stay in the hospital with him the entire time he was there! We got a room right across from the nursery which made it nice for his night time feedings. I am so glad we delivered at a small hospital so we could stay there and he got SO much attention from all of the nurses. I think he misses them all. He is a really good baby except when it is time to eat then he thinks it is time to scream at the top of his lungs. He likes to sleep in his swing the best so that is where we let him sleep so we can get some sleep too. We love having him home and we are so happy that he is feeling better! Here is a picture of him after his second bath in the hospital. He had a ziplock bag over his arm to cover his PICC line.

Blog App

Great News! I just rediscovered this iPhone app that let's me post uninteresting pictures/comments from my phone!

Is it really over?

I'm officially done with Nursing school FOREVER! I never want to think about school again and I am so happy!! Here are the girls and boys that I survived the last 2 years with at our pinning ceremony! I will miss seeing them all at 530 for clinicals and at school all of the time! But I am happy to be done! Other than that Baby is making me fat...or I am making me fat and we are happy we only have 2 months left until he comes!! I can't believe it, it still seems unreal.. until I see pictures of myself or I see my reflection!

Already March!

Sorry we have no pictures! Time is flying by lately. It is almost april which means I am almost done with nursing school!!! I can not wait. The good news is Baby Boy is moving around like crazy lately. The bad news is that I gained more weight than I thought possible at my last doctors appointment. Some more good news is that I finished all of my night clinicals and I only have 1 full day clinical left!!! Laura and my cute nieces came for a visit for a week and we miss them so much. I love walking up to Addison telling Michael to wake up!!! We miss all of our family and friends and wish they would come visit Utah more often!! If anyone has boy name suggestions send them our way...the only problem is we know everyone keeps their favorite names secret so people don't steal them, but we'll still take the o.k. list name suggestions.

January

We started a new year and are so excited for it! I started my last semester of nursing school and Michael is working hard, enjoying his job, and studying for GMAT. I start my PM clinicals this weekend so wish me luck, and if you wake up in the middle of the night feel free to send me a text encouraging me to stay there and not go home and go to bed! This semester really is going to be my most exhausting one with pm and am clinicals and 3 nursing classes. But there is an end in sight! We are excited to get these next 4 months over with! Happy 2011!!! We miss all of our friends and family and hope when school is over we will be able to see more of everyone! Come visit us please!

Merry Christmas

Christmas was so fun this year. The girls came with all of the babies, but we missed Greg, Emily, Aimee, Jack, and Ryan who is on his mission. We spent part of the day with my family and part of the day with Michael's family and his grandparents who came over for Christmas! It was a great break and so fun to be with everyone!

November

Happy Thanksgiving

November was great! We got to spend Thanksgiving in Cayman and we missed a huge snow storm while we were gone! It was a perfect get away full of sun, scuba diving, reading, swimming, napping, paddle boarding, seadooing, kyaking, family, and fun.

Haven't blogged since August...Let's start with October

Happy Halloween

Michael and I were doughnuts for Halloween. We were inspired by our nieces Addison and Kourtney who were much cuter doughnuts for sure! My mom and I made them right before the Halloween party and no one knew what we were...haha. I guess people in Utah don't eat doughnuts...it's true there are no good doughnut shops around.

Surfing

For Ryan's last family night he wanted to go surfing with everyone. We had such a fun last Monday night with him. We miss already but it sounds like he loves every second of his mission!
