Ceiling Fans

Now that his neck is a lot stronger, Alexander loves to use his new found head movement to check out everything when you are holding him. He especially likes to look up and has developed quite a fascination with ceiling fans. He talks to the ceiling fan in our living room frequently, and I think he has decided they will be BFFs. Check out the video!

A Fun Weekend

We had a great time last weekend in Auburn visiting with friends and family. Our friend Rob gets the Superstar Award for being the first of our guy friends to hold Alexander... and he looks so HAPPY! Alexander is coming up with new and adorable sounds daily that crack us up. Last night we were practicing to sing the Happy Birthday song to my nephew and Alexander joined right in with his own rendition. We were rolling. What a cutie!

Our Mini-Vacation

Yamaha furloughed its employees last week. While this wasn't the best of news in this economy, Steven and I saw it as an opportunity for a week together we wouldn't have had otherwise. We decided to take Alexander's first mini-vacation to Asheville, NC. We toured the Biltmore, spent some time at the North Carolina Arboretum, and then headed to Knoxville for a visit with Steven's Uncle Russell and Aunt Diane in Knoxville, TN.
