Good News

I know I said, as Connor, that we'd get Halloween photos up, and that will come tomorrow. But today...today was great. Today we went to see Connor's neurologist, Dr. McClintock. It was a good appointment, but the best part was at the end, when he said that he thinks Connor will stand independently someday. This is by far the most positive he has been about Connor's potential and it was truly exciting, and unexpected, to hear.

I hope each of you reading this is as happy to read it as I am to write it for you.

And I do promise - Halloween photos tomorrow. And look for a companion blog soon - for Drew! I think we have a good nickname started, so I can finally arrange for the new blog address.

Almost Forgot!

If you look to the right, there's a list of blogs you can visit from here. The last one listed is "Connor's school blog" and is the page that his teacher, Ms. Rachael, updates. There are frequently photos of Connor doing great things at school there, so you should check it out!!! (signed - Mommy)

All Hallow's Eve...

Today, I am a MONKEY MAN!!!!! I can't wait for the party tonight in the neighborhood. I am going to be a monkey, and Drew is going to be a banana. I promise not to eat my little brother, though. He is 4 weeks old today! He slept for 5 hours a few nights ago. Mommy is very excited about that. He's over 9 pounds, too.

As for me, I have been the usual star pupil at school. Yesterday, my job was to help my teacher go get lunch for eveyone, and she said I did a fantastic job. I held on to the papers with everyone's order the whole time. I never hold things that well at home... But that's okay, because when I got home, I was playing with Mommy and Christy and when Mommy said "Hello!" to me, I would lift up my right hand and wave it at her! Every time!

Yes, I know. I'm so cool. We'll post some photos from Halloween tomorrow. And lots of new Drew pictures on the website, too, if I can get Daddy to do that...

My first full week as a big brother

Wow. Can Drew cry in the night! He keeps Mommy up a lot, but he's growing a LOT faster than they expected, so he needs all that food to keep getting bigger. He's pretty quiet and looks around a lot, otherwise.

I went back to school last week and had my best week yet, according to my teacher. They were very pleased and wrote a lot of notes home to Mommy and Daddy about how well I was doing. I even learned to bowl, and got a strike in my first try! That's what this picture is - me learning to bowl. I'll have to teach Drew when he gets a little bigger...

HE'S HERE!!!!!!

I am so excited! This week, Mommy and Daddy ran out to the hospital on Tuesday morning, and yesterday they came home with my baby brother, Drew! He's pretty cool. You can tell I think so from this picture Daddy took when we went to the hospital to visit Mommy and meet Drew.

So far he isn't too noisy or bothersome (to me, at least) and I find that I can sleep through his crying no problem. I hope I can keep doing that.
