We're Back!
Hey everyone!! I am so sorry we have not been updating everyone lately. Life has been crazy as usual, but we have had some wonderful things going on. Connor had his 18 month well visit last week and is up to 26.8 lbs which is a 5 pound improvement in just 3 months! He is eating wonderfully and he continues to take all of his meds to help with the reflux. It seems like we have finally found a good combination and he is the happiest we've ever seen him as far as his eating and reflux goes. He actually enjoys sitting at the table with us now! I truly never thought I would see that day. Connor is even feeding himself now and doing a great job using his fork and spoon! Eric and I are hearing more new words from him everyday. Just the other day his Papa came to visit and when he came up the stairs Connor looked at him and said, "Let's play!". We all were blown away...he tells me about everything now and talks non-stop..most of the time I can at least figure out what he's trying to tell me although not always.
Eric and I were able to go away for 6 days without Connor to celebrate our 3rd anniversary. It's hard to believe it has already been 3 years and how much we have been through and how life has changed just in that short time.
Eric is extremely busy at work these days, but we can't complain especially with the way our economy is these days. We feel blessed with his job security and knowing we have very little to worry about on that end.
I (Becky) am having a blast teaching preschool. I have a wonderful class of 12 preschoolers and Connor absolutely loves his teacher. The first couple weeks he cried when she would come get him, but now he asks me for his bag when he sees Ms. Janet and gives me a hug and kiss and grabs her hand and heads for the door. It is really sweet..my baby is turning into such a little boy.
October has been a whirlwind for us between Eric and I being gone the first week of the month, a visit to Grandpa Jack's house one weekend, and a visit with Mimi and Papa while I worked in Columbia last week. We are now back home and am glad that life is settling back down again..hopefully no more traveling until Thanksgiving!
I will do my best to try and post some pictures this weekend!
God bless,
Eric, Becky, and Connor
