We're 4....I mean 5...Wait slow down..!!!

We are now 5.5 weeks old. I have been keeping Mommy and Grandma very busy the past few weeks. Mommy weighed me this weekend and is pretty sure the scale said 13 pounds!!! I have realized that I have a temper and I enjoy using it when I feel it is taking too long to get me my food. I have begun sleeping better at night, getting about 4-5 hours in a row. We are excited about going to visit Grandpa Jeff for the week of Thanksgiving but will miss Grandma and Grandpa Anderson when they return to California for the winter. I keep growing bigger and stronger everyday and am enjoying everyday so far :)

Three Weeks and Growing!!!

Three weeks have gone by so fast! Xander is already following our voices as we move around the room and tries his hardest to find us when he cant see us. He loves watching lights and the trees blowing outside the window. He can hold his head up for long periods of time now too!

Two Weeks Already!!!

Time sure does fly by! Xander is two weeks old! We have our first doctors appointment tomorrow so we will get to see how well he is growing. He is doing well, sleeping between 3 and 4 hours in a row at night and being very alert during his few waking hours during the day. He is becoming more vocal and making lots of funny sounds! He loves getting a bath and enjoys relaxing in the water. He also loves to cuddle and normally falls asleep and snuggles close when we hold him.

One Week Old!!!

So hard to believe that a week has gone by already. We are loving every minute of having Xander home with us and watching him grow!!!

First Few Days at Home...

Our first few days at home were pretty uneventful!

Alixander is enjoying himself sleeping and eating :)

He weighs 7lbs 11oz ( was 7lbs 7oz when we left the hospital)

The dogs love him and are very happy with him home.

They follow him everywhere!!

We took our first trip out today and Xander had fun

sleeping through the whole thing ;)

Tomorrow we are going to try a bath...should be interesting!
