Slowly!

Our house is starting to get more organized, but SLOWLY. It seems that we can only do things when Connor is sleeping, b/c he wants to get into everything, and it just easier. I can't organize during the day b/c I'm entertaining him like I should be doing, so nap and night time is busy time it seems.

Funny story...
The other day I saw Jeremy's wallet sitting at our desk and decided to put a Post-It note in there saying "I Love You" He kept it in there to make him smile. Well, tonight we went to dinner and was paying cash and pulled out the money and without realizing almost handed out server the note I gave him. I would have loved to see the server face if he had actually given it to her!

It's a boy!!!!

The picture says it all!

My next estimated due date is October 28th, but he'll come when he's ready, as long as its not too early!

Family Date Night

Yesterday was such a fun day with Connor. I love when he's in a good mood and laughs nonstop. Jeremy came home and we decided to go out to dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings. While waiting for our food Daddy introduced the "I got your nose" game and WOW what a hit that was. The laughing never stopped. We needed to exchange a movie from the store so while Jeremy was doing that I asked Connor to ask Daddy if we could get ice cream on the way home. As soon he got back in the car Connor screams happily "Daddy can we get ice cream?" Jeremy knew I had told him to ask ;) We went to Sonic and I ordered a chocolate molten cake, Connor got ice cream with chocolate syrup and Jeremy got a strawberry shake. Connor dove right in, enjoying a few bites then realized I had something different. He asked what it was and I gave him a bite. That was the end of my dessert. He proceeded to eat all of mine that was left ( I had only taken maybe 5 bites) and then a few more bites of his before Jeremy and I stopped him from being sick. In the middle of all this he says "chocolate cake is my favorite" All we could do was laugh hysterically.
As we were leaving it had started to rain lightly and got heavier as we drove home. Jeremy got Connor out of the car while I unlocked the door. Daddy and Connor ran inside with Connor laughing because he was getting wet. We had decided to skip bath because it was past bedtime, but Connor had so much fun getting wet in the rain I suggested that we go play in it since it wasn't lightning or thundering. We danced and sang for 20 minutes having a blast. Connor went to bed with a huge smile and I have great memories of playing in the rain with Connor.

My new doctor

Wednesday I went and saw me new OB and was very pleased. That morning from 4-5:30 I was throwing up from what I concluded was food poisoning, so I wasn't as happy and talkative as usual, but he was very nice. I was there for a lonnnggg time so I'm glad Jeremy was home with Connor. My due has been changed to October 28th, 2009 and I've gained 12 pounds. ooppps. I was told to slow it down some so I did buy anymore cookies or ice cream once I ran out this week. He told me I should only gain between 15-20 pounds, but I don't see that happening. I won't get huge, but a few more pound won't hurt ;-)
Tuesday, the 23rd, we find out the sex. Since no children under 10 are allowed Jeremy came up with the idea that he would watch Connor and I would go by myself. When I get there, I'm going to ask the u/s tech to not tell me the result but put the pictures in an envelope and seal it and we'll open it together when I get home. Now that's going to be really hard, b/c I'll be watching the screen and I know what a boy or girl looks like. Stay tuned for the results on Tuesday...

Our newest kicker!

Last night after Jeremy and I got in the bed I was laying on my back and tiny baby started to move around. Jeremy has tried a few times to feel him/her but with no luck. But last night s/he was dancing away and Jeremy got to feel movement, good strong ones. I've been feeling them since about 10 weeks, only b/c I knew what I was looking for, but now that Jeremy has felt it, it makes it so much more real for him. I go to my first drs appt here on Wed, then have to schedule another appt for an ultrasound, but it won't be too long before we know if it's a him or her in there kicking me all the time.

Early wake-up conversation

At 5:45am the other morning I hear Connor asking for the light to be turned on in his room. The conversation:

Alanna: Connor's what's wrong?
Connor: I want the light on
A: Connor's it's still night-night time
C: Oh, where's baby? (his lovey)
A: Right here...
C: Where's puppy?
A: Right here
C: Where's other puppy?
A: Right here
C:Where's Daddy?
A: Sleeping, it's time to go back to sleep
C: Oh, OK good night

And he slept till 7:30, which completely surprised me!

Connor loves the whirpool tub

Connor thinks our whirpool tub is the best. So many bubbles, so little time

Moving Day

Yes I know we moved in a few weeks ago, but here are some pictures of all the boxes:

Almost everything is unpacked, but not in place. The moving company came the other day to pick up the boxes which has opened up lots of room in the garage. Our mission this weekend is to make room for my car in the garage. Once the cold weather gets here I will have to have my car inside to get it warm, having a newborn and all :)
