Computer crashed
posted on 10/31/2007

My laptop crashed on Friday.  Luckily, our first floor tenant has a business that repairs computers.  I hope he's able to recover my files.  I did buy a new laptop today and is scheduled to arrive on Friday.  The best news is that a few weeks ago I moved all of Alexander's photos from my laptop onto  a USB drive and have saved all subsequent photos to the drive.  We're both bad about backing up our files on a regular basis but we're going to change that after what happened to me last week.

Baby Food
posted on 09/23/2007

I've decided to make homemade baby food for Alexander.  A friend of mine in the neighborhood has been doing it for a while so she gave me a lesson on Friday.  It went really well.  We made peaches, plums and pears.  Alexander loved the peaches.  We'll try the plums later this week and pears next week. 

So far, he's had bananas (loves them), avocado (didn't like), and peaches.  He's a good eater and I'll think we're going to enjoy new foods with him.

The pediatrician has cleared Alexander for solid food and he enjoyed his first bowl of rice cereal this evening.  You can wacth a video clip on the photo page.

First movie
posted on 08/08/2007

Despite the screening room in our basement, I've missed going to the theater to see a movie.  So, Alexander and I headed to the local AMC theater.  I timed it around his afternoon nap and it was a very enjoyable experience. I saw the Bourne Ultimatum.  Good movie. Alexander stirred briefly once but otherwise, he slept the entire time.  I think I'll take the adventure again sometime soon.

12 Weeks

Alexander is 12 weeks old today.  He's getting big and developing his personality.  He smiles a lot and is starting to laugh a little. Boy, is he a "talker".  I added some new photos in the 12 weeks folder.

We attended a mom/baby fitness class today.  Mom got a good workout while baby slept.  We're probably going to try the class again soon.

I've been cleared by the doctor to exercise and had a tennis lesson today.  I'm a little sore because I didn't stretch but it was good to be back on the court.  Alexander sat in his bouncer seat and napped while I played.

Not much is going on this week.  Alexander continues to get bigger and we're starting to settle into a little routine.

His sleep patterns vary at night and I really look forward to the time when I can sleep through the night. 

He's a great baby and I'm treasuring all the time we're able to spend together.
