Settling in...

Hello,
Sorry I haven't posted anything recently - as you can see I'm still adjusting to my new living situation.
I will say so far so good however. Spending alot of QT with Mom which is great and I'm getting to meet some of Mom and Dad's friends and my family.
I'm feeling very hungry lately and I'm starting to fill in some of this extra skin...Mom tells me the more weight I gain the more I start to look like Dad.
No further comment on that.
My Drs. tell me that I can start getting out so get ready for the Connor Leo world tour, I'll be adding a little class and cuteness to houses and restaurants near you soon.
Christmas is almost here and I'm going to NY to meet my cousins Cameron, Ashton and Maddie, I can't wait. I know Maddie and I will have a lot to talk about.


Anyway - gotta run, I have a little surprise waiting for Mom if you know what I mean ;-)

Hugs - Connor

Gobble Gobble...waahhh!




Ah, the sounds of Thanksgiving.
Grama and Grampa Mark came to meet me last week (and keep and eye on Mom and Dad).
We all had a nice time and it really was great to spend our first Thanksgiving together.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving I have discovered that eating is a very, very good thing. I enjoy it so much I'm doing it about every two hours (kinda like Dad).
Last night me and Dad watched a Bruins game, and Mom noticed that throughout the game Dad did more screaming, whining and crying than I did.
Tonight we'll watch the Patriots game, looking forward to seeing this Brady guy. More than a couple people have commented that he and I share a chin.
Dad's hoping we share the athletic ability and that I'll bring home a supermodel or two someday.
I'm going to go rest up, gotta big day of looking cute ahead of me.
Love, Connor

I just couldn't wait any longer...


Whew, what a week.
Let me start by saying hello, officially from the "outside".
6 more weeks was just too long to wait as I felt Dad was misrepresenting me in my blog. So, Dad I'm going to take it from here.
At about 11:30 last Tuesday the 12th, I gave Mom a swift kick and well, we were off.
Mom was composed, packed a bag with clothes and Dad the nitwit, grabbed a bag and put basically nothing in it other than his cameras and his phone.
Anyway, since I was still upside down, the Drs had to perform a c-section and at 2:48 am, I made my grand entrance.
I weighed in at an economical 5 pounds 4 ounces and 18 inches -good size given my impatience.
I want to thank Mom for being such a trooper. The picture of composure, she handled the blessed event, even with its suddenness and uncertainly, with amazing strength and grace.
Once out, they poked and prodded but found me to be a remarkably healthy and strong "premi". For the record, I don't view myself as "premi" at all, my good looks and intellect simply outgrew the womb.
So, I'm home now and getting ready to eat so I'm going to go now, but Dad's got a bunch of pictures and some video he'll be posting up here over the next few days, so come back soon.

Looking forward to meeting you all soon.

Love,
Connor Leo

Boo!


Boo!
So, my first Halloween costume...what do you think?
I went as baked goods - a bun to be specific. Mom of course serving as the oven.
How clever. I can only imagine what "cute" (right, embarrassing) getup they'll have ready for me next year...ugh.
Anyway, some news.
I have decided that it might be fun to keep Mom and Dad guessing as to when I might turn over. After listening in to some of the videos played in the birthing class we all went to last week, I'm thinking maybe hanging out in here is not such a bad plan. Birth seems like a lot of work.
Good to see the Sox won again but jeez, here's hoping they don't make me wait until I'm 86 to see one!
Ok, back to "cookin", its getting really cramped in here and I'm looking forward to getting some air and not swimming in my own pee!
Talk to you soon - love, "The Bun"

Checking in...

Well hello.
I thought with the Sox in the series (and yes, I know who they are, Dad tells me stories at night when Mom is sleeping) that I would well, dress for the occasion.
First and foremost, thanks to everyone for the wonderful shower, especially you Grama K, for all your hard work.
While I can't actually see anything, Mom is clearly tickled by the gifts and generousity and I have heard Dad mention something about being as "well dressed as me", I guess I have to hope that's a good thing.
Me and Mom went to the Dr. yesterday and everything looks good - they are a little frustrated that I'm upside down (at least for them), but hey, unless you're a bat or a sloth, it seems to me right side up is the way to go.
Ok, well I'm going to get back to growing which is a full time job these days.
Only a few more weeks until I get to stretch my legs a little!

Go Sox - hugs, Connor

Hi...Welcome to my blog


Hello world.
My name is Connor Leo Ostiguy, welcome to my blog. Right now I'm about 30 weeks old. Through a series of kicks and hiccups I'll be dictating messages to my Dad until I'm ready to make my first appearance sometime in December.

Along those lines, thanks Mom and Dad for dropping me smack dab into the middle of a New England winter. Won't matter though, they don't make shovels my size, so go get em' Dad.

Anyway, about me, I'm about 3 pounds, been sucking my thumb for awhile and I'm starting to learn how to use my lungs (I figure that will be a useful skill). Oh, and despite what my current photographs may suggest, I am not, in fact transparent!

Well, gotta go for now, I'm do for my 32nd nap today. Kinda hard not to nap really, its dark and pretty cramped in here, not a lot else to do.

Come back often, like my Dad, I have a lot to say.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Love, Connor
