Some typical Alex…
Baby tackles the stairs!
I’m too sexy for my shades
Dad, I think those girls in the other swing are talking about me…
You know how to whistle, don’t you? Just put your lips together and blow.
That didn’t sound like a whistle!
Freaked out by grass, so I’ll go and play on the bark instead.
Shaggy and shorn: before the haircut, and after.

Grandma and Grandpa with Alex at SFO
A few weeks ago he started pulling himself to his knees; now Alex pulls himself to his feet whenever he can. And he has started cruising! If he pulls himself up on a suitable object, like a coffee table, he is just capable of inching himself sideways a little with his hands, and moving his little feet to keep up.
He’s still not very stable while doing this, but it’s a start. A start on the road to walking.
Out and about with Scott and Ange
