...::: Connor Prosise ~ 0 - 2 Months :::...


Connor's first picture. The Neonatologist was taking him to the scale in the Operation Room. Babies are such a nice way to start people. ~ Don Herold	Connor weighed 5 pounds, 0.5 ounces at birth. Every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last. ~ Charles Dickens	Mommy's short glimpse of Connor before he was taken to the NICU. The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. ~ Rajneesh
Daddy visiting Connor in the NICU after the delivery (a few hours old). To heir is human. ~ Dolores E. McGuire	Leticia visiting Connor in the NICU (1 week old).	Connor in his NICU isolette (8 days old).

If your baby is "beautiful and perfect, never cries or fusses, sleeps on schedule and burps on demand, an angel all the time," you're the grandma. ~ Theresa Bloomingdale	Connor's first wink ;-) (13 days old).
Daddy and Connor in the NICU (13 days old). One hundred years from now It will not matter What kind of car I drove, What kind of house I lived in, How much money I had in my bank account, Nor what my clothes looked like. But the world may be a little better because I was important in the life of a child. ~ Unknown	Connor's "Feed Me!" look. We see it often... every 2-3 hours (13 days old).	It's sponge bath time! The scale shows that Connor has gained 6 ounces. This also happens to be Connor's first nude shot. We'll save this one to show to his future girlfriends when he misbehaves. J (15 days old)
Connor is all zonked out after bath time (15 days old)	Connor's official hospital photo (16 days old)	Mommy & Connor in the NICU (17 days old) I didn’t think that having a baby after I'd turned forty was so bad - only that I had to hold her at arm's length to look at her. ~ Margie Haynes
Deirdre and Barbara were two of several nurses who cared for Connor during his stay in the NICU (17 days old).	Mommy and Connor get wheeled out of the hospital on his homecoming day (17 days old) Mother: the most beautiful word on the lips of mankind. ~ Kahil Gibran	Connor sleeps through his first car ride on the way home from the hospital (17 days old).
Connor sleeps through his actual homecoming too (17 days old) Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~ Elizabeth Stone	Connor also sleeps through his introduction to Gypsy (17 days old) A mother's arms are made of tenderness, and children sleep soundly in them. ~ Victor Hugo	Casper warily scrutinizes Connor... or is it the breast milk he's smelling? In the background you can see that Gypsy has already lost interest in our new family addition (17 days old).
Jiles and Connor (17 days old)	Grandpa Paul and Connor (18 days old) Every baby needs a lap. ~ Henry Robin	The Baby Burrito (18 days old).
Sponge bath at home (19 days old). Spread the diaper in the position of the diamond with you at bat. Then fold second base down to home and set the baby on the pitcher's mound. Put first base and third together, bring up home plate and pin the three together. Of course, in case of rain, you gotta call the game and start all over again. ~ Jimmy Piersal, on how to diaper a baby, 1968	Connor chilling after a meal (28 days old). Most of all the other beautiful things in life come by twos and threes, by dozens and hundreds. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers and sisters, aunts and cousins, comrades and friends - but only one mother in the whole world. ~ Kate Douglas Wiggin	Connor enjoys some tummy time on Mommy and Daddy's bed (one month old).
Connor's first tub bath (one month old). Even when freshly washed and relieved of all obvious confections, children tend to be sticky. ~ Fran Lebowitz	Grandpa & Connor on 4^th of July (one month old).	Connor in his 4^th of July outfit (one month old). Photo courtesy of Paul Prosise

Connor is in his car seat and ready to go to the beach for the first of many times (5 weeks old). People who say they sleep like a baby usually don't have one. ~ Leo J. Burke	Connor's first trip to Huntington Beach (5 weeks old).	Connor with tired Mommy and Gypsy looking over Mommy's shoulder (7 weeks old).
Connor's "Food Coma" look is usually seen immediately upon finishing his meal. Yes, it's true, Jiles did actually feed and burp Connor... but no diaper change J (7 weeks old).	Sean and Connor (7 weeks old).
