Smiles

Connor smiles at us now!! When we go in to his room to get him in the morning we are greeted with a nice gummy grin and even when he gets his diapers changed he smiles at us. It is so cool to see him giving us smiles throughout the day now rather than just catching one here and there. I like to think he is strating to recognoze certain people and that is why he smiles so much when they are around. Its so cool.

Today we went to Seattle to see the dermatologist anout the red marks on Connor. He has had these marks since birth and they are called hemangiomas (spelling wrong I am sure). Anywyas the derm doc said that she is very happy to see that they are starting to break down on thier own, which is awesome. Now we just need to get the one on his liver checked again. Hopefully that one is looking beter or gone as well. Connor also had blood work done today and although he cried terribly during it he recovered quickly and even gave the required pee sample right on time! What a champ!

Connor also weighed in today (fully dressed) at 11.2 pounds!!! We have a dr appointment on Monday with his peds doc and so we will have a weight then as well. I also bought a scale and so now I can start having weekly weights for Mr. Connor. WOO HOO!

Take care everyone,
Ali
