Bodwell Family: 3 Months plus More

Another month has gone by and our little man is growing like a weed. And do I mean like a weed, hard to believe but he is wearing 6-9 month onesies (he has a long torso). His pants are still 3-6 months though. He has lost all of his jaundice because he is now as white as Larry and I. It was pretty funny...the other day Larry came in and asked if he was ok because he was white. He is pretty attached to me and it drives Larry crazy sometime but I spend all day with the little guy so I can see how he is more attached to me. We have started to put him in his crib in his room at night but he doesn't usually stay in there the whole night. He still wakes up several times a night to eat so sometimes it is just easier to put him back in his bassinet. I love to just sit and watch all his funny facial expressions. He has gotten his own little personality in the last month which is great. Watching him grow and change are the highlights of my days.

Grandpa Larry came to visit a couple weekends ago which was great. He got to spend time with the little man and he even helped Larry build me flower boxes.

We have been busy working on the backyard. I decided one day while I was sitting out there that I really disliked the yard. We have been getting rid of all the horribly ugly concrete chunks that make up the retaining wall in the yard. We made a new wall out of landscaping timbers and I am turning it into a raised garden area. We just have to hope the dogs don't jump into it to often. Calloway has been pretty good about going around it so far and Maggie just doesn't seem to care. I also put paver stones under the dinning room window where there was just dirt so that I could put planters there. It is all coming together and I can't wait till it is done!

Connor's first Easter was this past weekend. He got his very first Easter basket. It had a few new onesies, the Toy Story DVD, and candy for mom and dad in it.
