Big Day Ahead!

We have an exciting day ahead of us today!

Today, Maverick will be going to church for the first time :)

Then we have our 1st baby shower this afternoon!

Very excited .... the only thing I have a little anxiety about since church time is about the time Maverick wakes up to eat, is that he will toot in the middle of the service .. LOL ....if that happens, 

I'll just let out a "Thank You, Jesus!" - Besides, look at what all we have to be thankful for!

He's Growing Like A Weed!

We had our "2 week" check up this week & the doctor just wanted Maverick to be back up to his birth weight - well, he made it & exceeded it! As of 3/22/11 Maverick weighed 8lbs 13oz :)

 And when we wash his hair...it's sooooo curly! He looks like a totally different baby boy! It relaxes to a wave during the day, especially if we put his cap on him ... so we know he will have a lot of body in his hair (which auntie Amber is thrilled about! LOL)

He's already growing up SO fast!

Here he is right after a bath, with his curly locks!

Introducing Maverick Cash Conner

Picture It...  It was a brisk Thursday morning, around 5 a.m., on March 10th 2011.
We were getting to the hospital to be induced - we knew that it would probably be a long day - but we had our bags packed & was ready to meet our son!

We had such a great day, I didn't want to leave our "baby momma" very much, so I stayed with her most of the day :) She was happy to meet our families that they were in & out of her room ( all meeting each other) also!

After being in labor all day, the doctor said that it was time! Jared & I got to be in the delivery room (which mostly meant I got to be right there with her & Jared sat in the corner because he didn't feel well) LOL. . . . Then... at 8:33 p.m. Maverick Cash Conner was born.

Jared & I were full of emotion as we saw him for the first time - a true miracle

Maverick was 8lbs 11oz & 20 1/2" long. 

WELCOME MAVERICK CASH ~ WE LOVE YOU!!

We've Made Progress!

We had a great doctor's appointment yesterday!

Maverick has dropped quite a bit since the last visit & we

are 50% ready in the other department to deliver!

So, right now it's a waiting game - if we haven't had the baby by next week then we'll be induced :)

Holy smokes.... we're having a baby... is this real?! Yes.. this is real.

I need a pinch!!

Sieze The Day

Today we have, what will possibly be our last doctor's appointment before lil' Maverick is born!

We go to the doctor this afternoon to see how everything is... and his actual due date is the day after tomorrow - CRAZY! Time has flown by so fast!! Well, the 3ish months we've had to process & prepare for everything has flown by so fast :) I'll keep you posted how it goes today to see what the future holds!

In the meantime ~"Carpe Diem... Sieze the Carpe"!! ha ha

(I wonder who of my friends will actually get that?)

LoveYa!
