AFTER 1 WEEK WITH ALEXANDER

My baby boy is 11 days old today and we have all learned a lot in the past week and a half! Chris and I learned how to swaddle and Alexander became an escape artist, so we had to learn to swaddle better. Chris and I have become pros at changing diapers, Alexander has learned to despise having his diaper changed and cries like crazy every time (Sorry Buddy, this one's necessary). Alexander and I have learned to breast feed and I have learned how big and leaky breasts can become. (My apologies to anyone who didn't want to hear about that!) Chris learned that little boys have fire hoses that spray long distances without warning and Alexander and I learned that this is hysterical!!! We have also learned that Alexander loves the Baby Bjorn carrier in the grocery store and that Chris loves all of the attention he gets for carrying around the cutest baby ever. To be fair, they were quite the handsome pair.
Anyway, so far our learning experience has been the best 11 days of my life. I've also posted some new pics for you to enjoy.
