It's the little things...

I have been keeping a journal of Alexander and the different events/items of each day since he's been born. I started it while in the hospital and have continued every day. This has been helpful to capture things that happen during the days and allows us to easily look back.

I figured I'd type up a recap of the previous week's happenings...

  • Diaper rash bad in the early part of the week but almost gone by Sunday. Having the diaper rash makes him dislike bowel movements or having his diaper changed
  • Makes noises as if telling a story and grunts while he's going the bathroom
  • Still receiving packages & finally Mommy was able to finish all Thank You cards
  • Snores a little when he sleeps
  • Watched the Red Sox Home Opener with Mommy
  • Started to not take his afternoon nap but will sleep well in the morning
  • Ran errands with Grammie on Wednesday and behaved very well (slept the whole time)
  • Makes the cutest faces
  • Holds his head up a bit
  • Has found his thumb a few times
  • Received his Social Security card
  • Received some of the official hospital pictures (didn't get the whole order)
  • Both Daddy & Mommy read Dr. Suess a few times
  • Slept well at night in the early part of the week, not so well in the later part of the week
  • We introduced a pacificer for a small amount of time on Sunday
  • Had our first home-official photo shoot (pictures to come)
  • And we used our boppy pillow for the first time which he loved

Years from now he'll enjoy reading about his early days. My mom had a record of the mundane activities of our early life, and I always find it interesting to go back and read about what I did each day.
