Connor Smiling

Connor has been smiling for a while now, but I finally managed to capture it on video. Enjoy!

Connor's 3rd Month

Wow, it is hard to believe that Connor is already three months. I finally got him weighed today and he weighs 6.1 kg (13 lbs 7 oz), so he has gained just under 3 kg! The last time we measured him, he was approximately 60 cm (approximately because he wouldn't stay still for us to measure him).

This month has been fairly busy with many visits with new friends. John Francis Rootham's christening was this month, so we were able to celebrate with him at his open house. Although John slept for most of the visit, Connor was actually alert and was interacting with people at the open house. Connor also met some of our ultimate friends when we attended Emily Chen's Open House for her m chen wears collection. Geofford and I both bought one of her limited edition first printing t-shirts. We are hoping that Emily will soon put out a baby or kids line so that Connor can also sport some m chen wears.

Connor and I finally got to meet Tristan Xavier Hodgson who was born the same day as Damian. Geofford has yet to meet Tristan, but we are hoping that this will happen soon. This is a picture that Maria (Tristan's mom) took when we went over to their house for a visit.


We also got to meet Kahlea when she and Rachel came to Ottawa for a visit. It was so nice seeing Rachel and it was fun meeting Kahlea. Now we just have to convince them to move back to Ottawa so that we can seem them more often. If you click on the picture of the two of them, you can see the rest of the pictures that I posted on flickr.


Connor also had the opportunity to visit with his grandfather one afternoon when I wrote a test for a competition for a Human Factors Specialist with the government. Hopefully I did well enough on the test to get to the next phase of the competition. This job would be ideal as it matches my skill set to my interests. If I do get a job, Connor and Geofford will get to spend the rest of Connor's 1st year together. I know that Geofford is quite excited about this prospect.

Halloween

Connor was Winnie the Pooh this year. I think that he was pretty cute. We only went to three neighbours homes this year and he managed to get mom and dad some twix bars :)
