A Few of his Favorite Things...

We decided to document Alexander's four month marker with a few of his current favorite things. There are still the classics, eating (he now recognizes his bottle and helps to hold it!) rolling from side to side and singing with Nana. Lately he has also been into...

...blowing raspberries...

...playing with busy bug...












...and putting everything and anything in his mouth!

September at the Stuga

September can be one of the best times to go to the Stuga. It is warm during the day so you can be outside playing or enjoying the beach. Then it cools off at night so you have to bundle up and everyone gathers in the living room around the fire. We enjoyed bringing Alexander down to the Stuga last weekend to share this exciting time of year with him. It was also Erika's birthday as well as a special visit with my Aunt Inness and Uncle Terry so the cousins came over for dinner.

Labor Day

It was wonderful to have a nice long Labor Day Weekend last week. On Saturday we went to NH to see Andrew and Amy at Amy's parents house. Thanks again Shirley and Mike for hosting us! Lis and the boys were able to come over to try their back flips in the heated pool (a new phenomenon for them). Then we traveled on Sunday to RI to see all my aunts and uncles on my Dad's side as well as my cousin Adam who we have not been with in 3 years. It was a very special weekend for all three of us. Here are just a few of the snapshots from the weekend.
