"Happy 4 year Anniversary Mommy & Daddy!"


Alexander loves horsing around with Daddy!!

Alexander is 7 months old now and such a big boy! We have added squash, sweet potatoes and carrots to the list of veggies that he loves! I have pinched off pieces of banana for him and he seems to like that too. We tried the Gerber finger food things...they melt in your mouth, but crunchy. He loved them one day and hated them the next so we will see about that! I can't wait, as the weather warms, the more yummy fruit will be in season!

Alexander enjoys playing on the floor more and more. He gets up in a crawling position and will scoot a little but, but the gets very frustrated with not getting far fast and just throws himself over and looks at you like "aren't you going to help me?"


We noticed tonight after we got back from Costco that he enjoys standing and pushing large objects. This was a first. He got further pushing the large bulk package of toilet paper than he does scooting on the floor! Classic--and I promise we will invest in a new toy and stop letting the child play with toilet paper wrapped in plastic!


Alexander has his 3rd ear infection. We put him on Omnicef just this last week and by the weekend he had a really bad stomach virus. I don't know if it was the medicine or another bug, either way, I don't want that again! Poor thing was pitiful. I have never seen this child not want to play, but Saturday he just wanted to be a cuddle bug and that we did. Quite frankly, I am tired of him catching everything that blows by the window of daycare!
Here is what we say....GO AWAY BUGS!!

Until next time.....

Once the weather gets warmer he won't catch as much. My oldest started daycare in the early fall and by this time of the year he was not a bacteria sponge.
