10 Weeks Old!

Alexander is 10 weeks old today! He had his 2 month check up one week ago and he has grown a ton! He has almost doubled his birth weight and he is much longer. Here are the before and after stats: Birth weight= 6lb 13 oz, Now=12 lbs 5 oz, Length at Birth=18 in, Now=22 & 3/4 inches, Head Circumferance at birth=13 cm, Now=15 cm.


Here is Alex with his cousin Gavin last Thursday. Alex and I got to babysit him while his mom went to the dentist. Gavin is three weeks older than Alex and was over 8 lbs when he was born. Alex has grown so much that they are almost the same size now. We think there is about a half pound difference in their weight.

Alex was blessed on May 25, 2008. Grandma made his adorable blessing outfit.

Here is the whole group, right after Sacrament Meeting.
HereAlex is with his Grandma Gail and Cousin Gavin. This was taken on the Saturday night before his blessing.
And, here he is with Gramsi. This was taken a couple of days ago at Uncle Randy's pool.
Alex has grown so much in so many different ways. He is still a roly-poley little guy and loves to role from his stomach to his back. He smiles and laughs all of the time. Paul and I love him so much and just love watching him all of the time. He is so wonderful and we feel so blessed to be his parents.
