Ahhhhh Spring
Little man seems to have turned a corner in the high chair the past few days. It's almost too good to be true, but he is actually opening his mouth (more than twice) for yummy food! I have taken full advantage of his new success with eating and am feeding him at least three times a day- REAL FOOD. So far, so good. He goes tomorrow for an OPMS swallowing study at Emory. If he continues with this progress, I am hoping our solid food problems may be a thing of the past.
The teacher in me can't help but LOVE to take pictures of Alexander enjoying books. He really adores listening to stories, and he even helps turn the pages.
Yeah for books!
Alexander got to enjoy some Grandma and Grandpa time while we went out on a hot birthday dinner date.
I know you shouldn't take pride in material things, but isn't it okay to take pride in material things that I got for FREE?!? I have been trying for months to learn how to use coupons/sales to save us money, and it is finally paying off (literally). Everything here I got for FREE (except of course the beautiful flowers Steven got me for my birthday).
Rockin' with cousin Anna.
Such a happy boy!
Enjoying the first signs of spring.

March Merriment
March was such a terrifically busy month that I have had little time to update the blog with all our festivities. So here's a BIG update with more to come from the past few weeks. We went to a friend's wedding in New Orleans and had to leave Alexander with his grandparents for the first time. It was very hard to leave him, but we knew he was in good hands.
I wish he was this happy and proud of himself every time we put him in his high chair!
Hangin' out with cousin Sam.
The Big Easy- Royal Street
At the wedding- the ceremony and reception were at the Houmas House, an old plantation house and gardens, just outside of New Orleans.
The happy bride and groom
What stunning bridesmaids!

Ahhh, the southland in the springtime. My allergy boys were smiling big until the "yellow cloud" came to visit. Let's hope it leaves soon!
Having a great time with the Gladden cousins at the Atlanta Zoo.
What a crew!
I LOVE this picture of my boys in the springtime!

What a month!
February was an exciting month for us. Alexander has grown and changed so much it is amazing. It seems he is adding something new to his repertoire weekly. He started pulling up a few weeks ago and has just started to crawl like a big boy (on his knees not on his tummy). He is keeping Safety Steve busy with his new mobility. Alexander loves nothing more than for us to help him walk (or run) around the house. He is even adding new sounds to his babbles. Now if we could just convince the little guy that eating solid foods is cool! It's hard to believe 10 months have gone by since his birth. As you can tell from the pictures it is time for Alexander's first hair cut, so look for more pics soon. Let me know what you think about the Smilebox. Blogger has been having trouble with their video posts, so I thought I would try Smilebox and see how it goes.

Happy Birthday Steven!
Steven celebrated his 30th birthday this week. It's nice to be married to such a mature man (haha). Alexander thought Daddy's birthday balloon was the best toy ever (check out the video). The kid is half Gladden and half Locy, so needless to say he already has his foot in his mouth (see bathtime pictures). Alexander has made it over two weeks without vomiting, so we are hopeful the worst of his tummy troubles is over. We go back to the specialist next week. Happy Birthday to the Love of My Life!
