Blessing Weekend-September 28-30th!

Two weeks ago we were able to have Mac's whole family, my parents, and Aunt Phyllis and Uncle Tom all here for Connor's baby blessing! The weekend went by so fast, but we managed to hit up Rudy's (good 'ol Texan Bar-B-Q!), the bat show in downtown Austin, and a few city sights like the capital building. And of course...they all made it to the most important event...Connor's blessing. It was so special to see both Grandpas in the circle along with an uncle and one great uncle. It really meant so much to Mac and I to have our family make it down for such a special time for us! Thank you!!!

Auntie Hannah

My best friend Hannah came to visit us and see our cute little Con-man. She's a natural with babies since she is two of ten girls and can pretty much lull a baby to sleep at the same time as cooking dinner and probably updating her blog. She's not a mommy yet, but I can't wait to see her have a family of her own...she'll be such a good mommy!

Well, our little boy is three full weeks old and we're still alive. Take a look at some of his newest mugshots.

Big Blessings come in Small packages

Our little Connor has definitely brightened up our lives! He is 2 1/2 weeks old now and loves to go on walks with his mommy and daddy...it's amazing, if he's crying all we have to do is open the front door and he stops! He loves looking around and hearing the sounds of the water at the pool, birds chirping, cars zooming past, all of it! He responds to our voices and calms right down when we talk to him (most of the time) or when his daddy sings to him. Most every night Connor will sleep 4-5 hours straight, except Saturday nights--3 Saturdays in a row now Connor has had bad nights. We're not sure if he's worried that we might make him go to church or what, but like clock work he doesn't give us much sleep heading into Sunday mornings. We love him so much and learn more about him each day!!!

The Con-Man

Our little Connor Dean Burton arrived on Aug 22, 2007 at the beautiful hour of 1:09 in the afternoon. He weighed in at 7 lb and 1 oz and stretched 20.5 inches. After two days in the hospital, they let us come home. He let us know quickly when he is not happy or when he is hungry.

Hello...I'm naked in public...Ahh

Let's see. 7lbs and 20inches.

Grandma Burgan always glad to hold her grandbaby.

Have you ever seen anything so cute in your life or parents who really think so?

I DON'T WANT TO WEAR CLOTHES!

Last prego picture

Well, this is it! We're about finished with these prego pictures and ready for Connor to arrive! Now that Grandma Burgan is here things are ready to roll. We've been so lucky to have such a good pregnancy, but so ready to be done with pregnancy as well. We'll be keeping you updated on the Burton household with our new little addition!
