Additions to the Jemison House: Connor's Due Date!

Today is the 2nd anniversary of the terrible tornados that hit the south. It's also the anniversary of Connor's due date! We're glad every day that we have him in our lives. Patrick told me today that he didn't know how we would handle it if Eamon is as cute as Connor!

He's working very hard.

The weather has been pretty unpredictable, as spring usually is. We've had to switch the thermostat from heat to AC and back at least two times. Connor and I have been enjoying the weather when it's warm, or even hot! We've been walking with some other women and their children a couple times a week and afterwards, Connor plays on the playground. I would be happy to go back home when we're done walking but Connor has gotten better and better at knowing when we are getting close to the playground and will start begging to go "play!" and "slide!" He loves going up and down the slide and I am trying to help him understand that he needs to take turns with the other kids. Most of the time they are the same age as Connor and neither of them gets the concept of sharing or taking turns, so we parents just have to pick them up and force them :)

Connor has been really enjoying the PJs he gets to wear now that it's warmer. He LOVES his airplane pajamas. He always points out the many airplanes he sees in the sky, loud and emphatically.

The combination of this outfit cracks me up.

Rock!

Somehow, he lost a boot.

Connor loves how physical Patrick is with him.

Connor is hilarious. I love to see him enjoy his toys and everything in our house. He definitely has a zest for life! Thanks for the sunglasses Jessica! And for the hat Sani!

Occasionally, Connor and I will have movie mornings and I get him all ready with breakfast in front of the TV. I thought he looked so cute with his bowls all tucked around him, still wearing his sleepsack (the news ones I've gotten him have feet holes!)

Last weekend we all went to my mom's and Patrick and I spent our first night away from Connor in honor of our anniversary. Our anniversary is May 17th, but we will be on a Jemison family vacation that weekend, so this was the closest we could get. My mom has a new puppy named Louie, and Louie thought Connor was the bee's knees. Connor was more just tolerant of Louie, and tried to get away from him a lot of the time, but he was okay with him.
