Alex - 9 months

This past month was a very busy month. We had lots of visitors! First my Aunt Tobi, Cousin Casey, and her three kids came to town for a Spring Break visit (to bad it was cold).

Our first stop was the aquarium. Alex's 2nd trip to the aquarium. Here he is with Cara pushing him.

Casey and Connor.

Uh oh we are at the wrong end mom!

The day after the Texas Cooley's left 10 of Pete's relatives and my parents came to town for Alex's baptism. It was a fun crazy weekend!

Father Exume baptised Alex.



Doesn't it look like Alex is giving the priest the thumbs down! :)





My sister Lisa and Pete's cousin Mike are the Godparents.



Tom, Nancy, Pete, me, Alex, Ed, and Ginger









Lauren and Pete


Becky, Lauren, and Alex

This wasn't the clearest picture but if you were there you'll understand why I had to include it here!! :)

Alex had an audience for his bath.



A little out of order but Alex all dressed and ready to be baptised!

After a hard day at daycare.

Alex is finally getting to the point where he can play with his cousins.

At the end of the month Avery, Michelle, and Yanira all came to town for a visit with there kids.
Alex and Luke. Luke is two months younger than Alex but he is bigger, taller, and out crawling Alex.

Michelle and Colette

Yanira, Wyatt, me, Alex, Michelle, Colette, Avery, and Luke!!!

Alex's new hat.

Alex excited about his new sunglasses (excited to chew on them - not to wear them)!!


Last picture before everyone leaves! :(


I really hope this tradition of getting all together can continue for years to come!!

Alex got his first high fever - we were trying to bring it down - he was a good sport!

Alex's new hat!

Since Alex is not turning out to be the big guy we thought he would be maybe he will be a Muscian!! He really enjoyed playing with the Davies' music toys (hint hint Alex's birthday is coming up in a few months)! :)


Last week Alex had two teeth start to peak through the surface! Both are on the bottom and are just starting to grow in. He still isn't crawling but hopefully soon!
