Alex the Sports Fan

Alex has been watching basketball and baseball with his Grandpa. My parents are here visiting for two weeks, and it is great to have the extra help.

John took this photo yesterday. Once he is a little older, Alex can go watch his Dad play softball.

Alex is three weeks old today and doing well!

Growing Baby

Alex had his 2 week check-up today. He is doing well and growing fast. He now weighs 9 pounds, 3 ounces and is 21 and 3/8 inches long.

Sunday

Sharis visited today and Alex had his first bath at home. Yesterday, Misty, Savannah, and Kat visited, but I did not take any pictures.

Sleepy Baby

We have found the pack 'n play very handy to have for our sleeping baby. We just wheel him around the house in there. He likes to sleep with one arm up, just like me. He is eating every 2-3 hours and keeping us busy. John and I have been able to take turns getting some sleep.

Shamu (the computer, not the whale)

Let's be honest, I do not always understand John's job even though we work at the same place. I kept hearing about Shamu the computer, and now I know more from the OIT newsletter. You can follow this link and scroll down to "OIT Staff Members Rescue Shamu." It all happened at UTSA without any special trips to Sea World.

Alex coming home on Friday, March 6
