Our sweet beautiful boy turns 1 today! It’s hard to believe that 1 day before his birth Michelle and I were simply a couple and the next day we were a family. I can not express how profound and blessed an experience it is to be a parent. I always thought I knew what it was about before he was born but there is simply no way I could have guessed how significantly my life would change for the better. Every day I pause and think about my family and how lucky I am, I am perpetually smiling on the inside.

Alexander has been on the verge of crawling for the past few weeks. Well, this past Monday (August 9th) he officially started to crawl. Now we are in the mode of finding out exactly what he can get to and trying to make the house “baby safe”. The best part is seeing how happy he is and his non-stop laughing when he is exploring his surroundings. I was lucky enough to capture his first time crawling on video and will post it up here when I get the chance. I don’t think this stage is going to last long though, he is already trying to figure out how to stand up!

Happy Easter everyone! We are heading to my in-laws today for a late dinner. Before that we are going to the cemetary and then to visit Michelle’s Grandma Sophie with the baby.

Alexander on the Easter Bunny

Michelle heads back to work today and so begins my responsibility of taking care of Alexander while working from home. So far today has went pretty smooth although he seems to be eating more often then usual and therefore not sleeping as much as I would like, lol. This will definitely be a challenge for me as I function better when my day is consistent. It’s just a matter of both Alexander and I adjusting to the new schedule.
