1 Week Old Already!

Connor's 1st week has already flown by! So far everyone is doing great. He is nursing like a champ and filling up diapers quickly. I am sure he will get a good report at his next Dr. visit on Monday. He lost a little too much weight after he was born (7lbs 4oz to 6lbs 10 oz) but neither I nor Dr. Nave was concerned because he just was not interested in nursing at first but he has certainly made up for lost time. We are starting to get on a schedule and I am going to skim through the Baby Wise book and refresh myself on the principles of it so that hopefully he will be a great sleeper like his sister. Sarah is still being a great big sister and loves her baby "Cubbie" or "Bubba" as she likes to call him. Today, Connor and I went over to Jennifer Grayson's house for his first official photo session. I cannot wait to see what Jen got! Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I will try to keep the posts coming!

Wow!

Hey everyone! Baby Connor and Mommy are doing great! He looks like Sarah! Jen did wonderful, she is a super trooper! He is feeding right now, and sitting on his mommy's chest. His little Cub's hat is too big, go figure, a Mountjoy with a small head! Here are a couple of photos

Presenting Connor

Connor James "Cubbie" Mountjoy born 1:03 pm est. 7lbs, 4 oz, 19 inches long. Pictures to follow.

Time to push!

Here we go! Jen is ready to push!

The Water is Broken

Dr. Edwards came in and broke her water, she is dilated to 5.5 to 6, Jen feels great, her legs are a little numb from the Epidural, overall things look great. We will keep you posted!

Labor

Jen is in labor. She has fluids and the Pitocin going. Epideryl is going in, just waiting for the Doc and for her to progress. she is close to 5, so maybe this young man will show himself prior to noon? More updates on the hour.

Hospital Arrival

We are at the hospital! Our nurse Abby "SK's best friends Noah's mommy", is getting Jen all prepped. The monitors are on, and we are ready to bring Baby Connor into the world today! I will update as things progress. I will post pics on here, my Facebook, and Jen's Facebook!

So far behind...

Well, it has been a long time since our last post and with baby #2 right around the corner, I figured I better get on it! We have been very busy watching Sarah grow and Sarah is just very busy! Her vocabulary is amazing and she can pretty much verbalize anything. She is potty trained...yeah...with the occasional accident but we have not bought diapers/pull ups in over two months (of course, that is about to change). She is going through the terrible twos and really wearing on our patience at times but we all take deep breaths and get through it! She is excited about the arrival of her baby brother, or at least she thinks she is excited. We shall see when he gets here! I think she will have good moments and not so good but, all in all, will be a great big sister and big helper! She is doing great at school and really loves her teacher Ms. Becky. She really loves her "big girl bed" and furniture and her goldfish that NeeNee and Poppa got for her for potty training. Well, I just wanted to give a little Sarah update before baby boy arrives. Stay tuned for updates....
