“First” Easter
We’re not really Easter people around here, but this year, we thought a good game of seek and find would be a fun little project for Alexander. He was pretty cute trekking round and lighting up at the pretty colored eggs around the basement play room. One in the house… Continue Reading
One Year Old
And so it is… we are the ecstically proud parents of a one-year-old. As soon as the words tumbled off our lips it sounded strange to us and sent our heads in a spin. How quickly time flies and how much it reveals to you in twelve short months. Sometimes Continue Reading
Going Bananas for My Very First Birthday

We’ve Got a Walker!
It’s official! Alexander has declared himself the newest little biped in the house! Not long after he was wobbily standing (late November), he was taking an uncontrolled step or two here or there. At Christmas time, he could cruise around- his feet playing catch up with his leaning torso in Continue Reading
