Alexander Christopher

We had our first big car trip this weekend to New Jersey. Dan's brother Matt & his wife Laura were baptising their baby, Michael. Alexander did exceptional all weekend. He slept the entire car ride (up & back) and barely made a peep. And down in NJ he was such a good boy. He didn't cry in the church and he also was very quiet at Grandma & Grandpa's house during the afternoon. He did however want to stay up and eat all night so it made for a long night at the hotel but it was expected. We had a nice time visiting with everyone and it was so nice to show Alexander off. Dan was especially excited and almost jumped out of his skin waiting at the church for people to show up! That's a proud papa if I've ever seen one...

Here are some pictures of the weekend.

Here is a very stylish Alexander just before we put on his sweater vest as we were to embark on his first trip to New Jersey for cousin Michael's Christening.

Thanks Auntie Alyson for the outfits - they fit perfectly!

And before we left this morning we had to make sure we got a picture of the two new babies together. Here is Alexander sitting with his cousin Michael! Michael is 5 months older than Alexander and it's amazing how much of a difference there is between their sizes.

This is Alexander posing with Daddy's 9 month old picture, and the resemblance is dead-on.




And then here is a picture of the latest babies in the family. Matt, Laura & Michael with Dan, myself & Alexander
