Connor's Christening

This was a busy week for the whole family. The past Sunday was Connor's Christening, and he did great. Connor was baptized at St. Louis Cathedral, it was beautiful, and Connor was even blessed by the Bishop. He was very well behaved throughout the ceremony. Afterward we had a fish, oyster, and shrimp fry at our house. It was a beautiful day to be outside and I think everyone had a great time. Sorry I don't have a lot of pictures, I barely made it through the day. The night before was our girlfriend Julie Heitzmann's bachorlette party, and lets just say things got a little crazy. I owe a big thanks to Michele for helping me out the day of the baptism, we would have missed the whole ceremony if it wasn't for Shane calling and waking everyone up (including Connor). Our next big milestone is next week...Connor will be five months already!

More than just milk!!!

This past Sunday, March 2nd Connor got his first taste of rice cereal. It was mixed with Gerber apple juice so he loved it! He is only getting it mixed with juice once a day (first thing in the morning) and his last bottle of the night has a couple of scoops in it too. It's funny because he makes a weird face for the first couple of spoonfuls, then he can't get enough. Sorry we don't have a video, our card is almost out of space, we got it on the camcorder, but I can't download it. I hope you enjoy the pictures anyway. Oh, I started putting Connor in his bed today for naps, he only sleeps there for about 45 minutes though. I guess it's better than nothing.

I had to add this pic, about 75% of the day Connor sits with his entire fist in his mouth, still making noises, and drool everywhere. Smiley boy
My future's so bright, I gotta wear shades.
