Welcome!

Hi everyone-
I am terrible about getting pictures and updates sent out each month showing everything Alexander is doing, so my friend Anna suggested I start a blog. Alexander has been a joy to have in our house, but he keeps me busy! He loves to cuddle and to be held...another reason its tough to be on the computer all the time.

Things are finally settling down, Alexander is eating every 3-4 hours (finally) and is trying to sleep 4 hours at night in between feedings. Benjamin and I finally feel like we are getting some sleep at night. After two weekends with Benjamin and I taking turns getting the 24hour stomach flu, we are ready to get out and about in this warm weather. This past weekend was the first time we both felt ready to go out with Alexander and not worry about him getting sick from other people. Alexander LOVED it! He smiled at everyone and was really really good. I can finally get out and about! :) On Saturday we went to Sams Club, and then worked outside...well Benjamin worked outside, Alexander just wanted to be held in my arms outside. Then on Sunday we finally made it to church, had lunch with nanny (benjamin's mom) at Ruby Tuesday's, stopped by walmart for diapers, and again worked outside. I look forward to his week!
