6 Weeks + Family

The past few weeks have been very busy for us but filled with lots of family fun!

Connor had his one month check-up at the Pediatrician, which was at 5 weeks (now he's almost 7 weeks so I'm sure he's bigger)... he was 11 pounds, 5 ounces (95th percentile), 22.5 inches (75th percentile) and head 15 inches (50th percentile).  Needless to say, he is definitely a growing boy!  He has developed a preference for laying on the left side of his head so we are having to monitor to make sure he lays on both sides so he does not get a permanent flat side on his head, which is easier said than done.  He has started to sleep a bit longer each night which has been great but now we are working on getting him in a napping routine so it's not so sporadic during the day.

Keith's grandparents and Aunt Beth came to town before the rest of the Kansas City crew.  Keith was out of town for work that week so Connor got to spend some relaxing time with his great grandparents, which was a big help to me!

That Saturday, the rest of the Kansas City crew arrived - Cody, Amie, Sara, Kyle, Diane, Danny.  While they were here, we enjoyed spending time with them, shopping, grilling out, having a low country boil (my favorite - lots of shrimp!), hiking, golfing, and of course holding Connor!  Here are some pictures that were taken by our friend, Katie, at our Memorial Day cookout with family and friends:

Connor slept through all of the pictures :)


When we originally had Connor's newborn photos taken, the bow tie that my mom ordered wasn't here yet - so Katie graciously offered to take those pictures when we received the tie!  Days before these pictures, Connor received a Gator themed orange/blue tie from Kendall Johnson so we had to include it!








Last week, the Snyder family had some exciting news - Connor has a new cousin!  Baby Charlie was born on Wednesday, May 29 which makes him and Connor exactly 6 weeks apart - how fun that will be to have them grow up so close in age!  Michelle and Chip sent us this picture - how cute is our new nephew?!
