Connor's Blessing

Connor received his baby blessing the first Sunday of September. A family gathering was then held at our home and fortunately it was warm weather. The boys somehow managed to play some football as well. The breakfast casserole and fresh fruit didn't last long. From such an early age it has been extremely apparent that Connor and Luke have different personalities. Connor is much more laid back and can be comforted more easily than Luke. Boys will be boys, however. Now Laura complains that there are three loud, dirty, stinky boys in the house.

Utah State Fair

We decided one day that it would be fun to go to the Utah State Fair. Little did we know that we need to take out a second loan in order to afford to go on any of the rides. Luckily there was some fun free stuff to do and Luke really enjoyed watching the Shark Show. Luke was lucky enough to pick one ride to go on and he chose to ride the green helicopter. That didn't come as a huge surprise to us. He loves green and there is nothing better then flying "way, way high in the sky on my green helicopter!" It was a fun day and the big slide was a blast "Dad lets go again and again!" Connor was a trooper and he enjoyed watching all the bright lights around us. It was fun but next time we will go better prepared!

So here are some cute pictures of my family. I can't believe it has been a month since he was born. I love having him in our family and it is such a joy to see him and Luke interact. One of my favorite things is when I find cars, books, and motorcycles surrounding Connor. I sure hope Luke will share this well once Connor is on the move. Thankfully I have a while until that will happen!

Rockin' in my socks

Connor Jones Sorensen

He is here!! Connor was born on July 15 at 8:27 a.m. He weighed 7 pounds and was 20 inches long. It is wonderful to have him here He is such a good baby and is always so content. His brother absolutely loves him and they are so cute together. Luke is always the first to tell me that Connor is hungry and that I better sit down to feed him. It is more fun then I thought it would be having two boys and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Sorry these pictures aren't the best hopefully I will get more on soon!! (:

BABY TIME

For those of you who haven't heard I am going in to have our baby tomorrow. I won't be able to update for a while but I will try to spread the word quickly so you will all know what we had!!! Wish me luck!

Easter

Easter was pretty busy this year. Dan and I were in charge of an Easter egg hunt for our ward. We served breakfast and then went over to a park across the street where Dan had hidden all the eggs and had a fun little hunt. Luke had a blast and once he realized there was candy inside the eggs there was no stopping him. On Sunday we had dinner with the Sorensens. The Easter bunny had hidden more eggs there. Lets just say that Luke needs a sibling to compete with because this hunt was too easy. It was a fun Easter and I was grateful I could still fit in the dress I had bought it was a little tricky!

New Update

So if you are all wondering where Laura went I am still here life has just changed a little. First, of all Dan finishes school in about two months and I am really looking forward to having a husband that doesn't always have to work on Saturday!! Second, I am pregnant! We went in for our 19 week ultrasound on Wednesday and everything about the baby looks nice and healthy. The best part though is we didn't find out what we are having. If you ask Luke if it is a baby brother or sister most of the time he says "baby sister." This pregnancy has been wonderful compared to the rest but there sure is a difference between you first and third. I am definitely more LAZY!! Dan has been great and Luke is wonderful he would hold my hair back and rub my back while I would throw up and then give me a kiss and say "momma sick." Then I would remember it was all worth it. I hope that explains why I have been missing for the last three months!
