What has been going on at our house?

We've been keeping pretty busy now that I'm back at work. My day starts at 4:30 am preparing some food for Alex. It will be nice when I'm not breastfeeding anymore! Eric gets up about 5:30, so he can get showered before the boys wake up. I've got to try to get to bed by 10:00 this week, because I've been up until 10:30 or 11:00. Alex is adjusting just fine to life at day care. They are keeping him well fed to keep him happy. Eric was supposed to travel to Denver this week, but thankfully his trip was cancelled!

What happens when you let an 18 month old eat tortellini with red sauce? He makes a big mess! Evan loves pasta and loves to touch everything while he's eating it:-) It takes a few rinses of the washcloth to get him cleaned up enough to leave his chair. Doesn't this make you want to go to Buca or Olive Garden?

Evan still loves to look at and read books. Hopefully this will become a life long joy for him! At least he's looking at the book right side up!

This bear has velcro on the arms and legs so Evan asks us to attach the bear to him. He usually pulls him off and then wants us to put him back on again. I tried to get a picture of this other night, but he'd pull him off before I could snap the picture.

Bath time for Alex! He doesn't mind getting a bath at all. Hopefully he'll love the water as much as Evan.

When we get out the bathtub for Alex .....Evan will push his chair over by the sink so he can be close and see what is going on.

ahhhh. Clean Baby! He doesn't get nearly as dirty as Evan who needs a bath almost every night.

Dad and Alex ...a self portrait!

I took this shot of Alex last weekend on the boat. It was a little chilly. This swaddle my aunt Barb made came in very handy. Alex is warm and happy:-)
