OUCH!

Today we took Connor for his two month checkup. Poor baby had to get several vaccines and it was so hard to listen to him scream. He just looked up at Josh and me crying as to say "why aren't you helping me?" He's been a little fussy tonight but we gave him some infant tylenol which has seemed to help him sleep better. I'm sure his little legs will be sore tomorrow.

It's not surprising, but he is growing like a weed!! He is now 13 lb, 12 oz and a whopping 25 1/2" long, which puts him in the 98% for height. The doctor said he could possibly outgrow his car seat before it's time to turn him around. She said the rash on his face and his sleepless nights all have to do with the constant growth spurt he continues to have. As she got ready to leave the room, she turned and said "he's just perfect." What a wonderful thing to hear! We are so blessed.

Now for some naked baby pictures...

"Give me a hug!"

If we only knew what he was thinking...

Go Team USA

I love watching the Olympics every couple of years and as you can see, Connor does too. We put this "sign" in his hand and he waved it around cheering on Team USA.

Sleeping (for him) is getting SO much better!! He went to bed at 8:00 last night, we dream fed him at 11:30 (that means feed him in his sleep) and he did not wake up until 3:30ish!

Happy Two Months, Connor!!

I'm back! Josh was in Austin last week so I had no access to Internet and therefore, could not blog. Today Connor is TWO months old. He is growing like a weed and so much fun. We go Monday to have his immunizations and I think I'll probably cry more than he will. :( I can't wait to see how long he is now. Many of our 3 month outfits are already too short!!

Well, we're finally moving down to the Austin area. We found someone to lease our house for two years. Their lease on our house starts Septemeber 1st so Mimi is here helping pack and box things up. It's amazing how much stuff we've accumulated over the past couple of years. So if anyone is dying to help move in the dead heat of summer, come on over!

Here are a couple of other photos taken of Con-man today.

The Miracle on 7720 Juno Springs Way

McKinney, TX---It has been reported that Connor Settlemeyer, the young lad of Josh and Allison Settlemeyer has been sleeping. "It's a true miracle in the making," Allison reports. "I decided he needed to be on a schedule so we implemented one starting last night. He still did not sleep through the night, but he slept and he slept in his pack and play. And he napped several times today." Allison, who has not been getting more than 4 hours of sleep a night is really excited about this new development. Even though young Settlemeyer did not sleep through the night, she says they are making progress. When asked about the schedule, father Josh was reported saying "I do whatever my wife tells me. When she says it's time to feed Connor, I feed him. When she says it's time for him to sleep, I put him down. I want to help her so, like me, she can begin sleeping through the night."
Although this is just the beginning phase, the Settlemeyers could not be happier with this progress. Connor was allegedly quoted saying "Goo goo, gaa gaa, waa."
