And away we go....

This is my first attempt at a blog... I hope you enjoy the ride.

Alex has sure been looking cute for church lately thanks to all the great clothes he got from his Aunt Shawn.  The pastor even complemented him on his sweater vests. :-)

We visited with Nana and went to 'The Lob', as the Baker family calls it.  Alex had his first taste of a Red Lobster biscuit and enjoyed it.  He also did really well at sitting in his high chair and eating all the mashed veggies I brought along.  

Alex sure enjoyed crawling around Nana's sharp edged steel table.  This kid has no fear!!

I love this little guys expressions!!

So I've mentioned to a few of you that Alex has a dark spot on his back.  You can see it here on his left shoulder.  It hasn't gotten any worse since birth, but it hasn't gotten any better.  I plan on taking him to see a dermatologist in the near future just to have it examined and also have a good baseline for the future. 

"I swear awsifer, I only had one bottle!!"

Alex loves his baths.  He can be the grumpiest kid ever, get him in the tub and he's all smiles and splashes.  Also, who doesn't think a baby butt is the cutest thing EVER!!

Alex has been gritting his gums lately when he doesn't want to eat.  This is the expression he gives when doing that. (Note the clenched fists)

Alex practicing his walking and feeding skills!

Alex is even a stand up guy in church.  He enjoys joining in on hymns as well as the sermon with his little voice (and some times big voice). :-)

So... the time has come, Alex will crawl up to and climb up on anything he can.  Me, toys, anything.  He just wants to practice his standing now.

Must....

Escape....

now what.... (he was buckled in, I need to find an new way to keep him busy while I shower)

So cute

He still enjoys time in his play gyms I guess.

He is climbing up on everything!

Alex loves playing with Link.  Thankfully Link doesn't mind.  Alex was giggling up a storm when I took this picture.
