So Mommy has these things at work called finals (I have no idea what that means) and Grandma CC has gone to Chicago for a conference, and that means I am all alone with my Daddy again! This week justs keeps getting better and better. I was “better” for my Daddy today, but that is only because Mommy came home at noon to take care of me. Daddy had to go see the doctors (he has a sinus infection) so Mommy watched me so that I didn’t have to go with Daddy. I decided since Daddy is “sick” (and not just in the head) that I would be better for him today) Next week, though all bets are off.

Mommy and Daddy decided to go out to dinner at Infusino’s (My Mommy’s favorite and mine too). I met some nice people sitting next to me and they told my Mommy that I am a “very good baby” I just smiled and said inside my head that of course I am for my Mommy…leave me alone with Daddy and watch out!

Since I got to play with Mommy for a long time today, my day was complete. I was very happy today…why can’t these finals be everyday?

So I have learned to something new and fun. I can laugh! I was playing with Mommy (and Daddy too) and we were all on the couch downstairs and I was just laughing and laughing and laughing. Mommy and Daddy thought it was tons of fun…so we’ll see when I decided to do that “trick” again.

So today is Wednesday, and that means I get to “hang” with Daddy all day. I had soooooo much fun tormenting and torturing him today. I wouldn’t let him get any work done! Daddy was talking (complaining if you as me) to Mommy who was at work and she said she could come home for lunch and be with me for a while (so Daddy could maybe do some work) but she had to go back to school for the faculty meeting until 4 ish. When Mommy came home, I was asleep so she didn’t get a chance to play with me…but as she was leaving, I decided to open my eyes and say hi, Mommy saw my “evil Daddy” look and warned Daddy that I was on the terror this afternoon! How right she was! I love tormenting and torturing Daddy. As I mentioned earlier, it is so much fun! So as I was screaming to annoy my Daddy (I wasn’t hungry, and didn’t need changing) Mommy called the house to check in. Daddy put her on speaker phone for me, and I was quiet and good and happy and smiling.

In the evening, Mommy, Daddy, Grandma CC, and I all went out to dinner. I had fun with Grandma CC and it as nice to see the guy at Perkins again. It has been a while for me (He said the last time he saw me I was new…like 2 weeks) Wow that seems like a long time ago for me! As we were leaving, Grandma CC found the “claw” game and won two big stuffed animals for me..a pink puppy dog with really long ears (I thin Panda will love that one) and then a really cool elephant! What fun!

That’s all for now…I can’t wait for next week Wednesday to come…more torture for Daddy

Well, it is Tuesday and today another Grandma CC morning and daddy afternoon. Why does mommy do this to me. Oh well, I guess I will eventually have to deal with daddy taking care of me.

So mom dropped me off with grandma and said that she would be back to pick me up later. Boy did my eyes get big! mommy is going to rescue me and not fatty too fatty mcdaddy. Since I knew was was going to happen, I decided to sleep all morning so that I could play with mommy in the afternoon. When mommy picked me up, she took me to the store to get dinner. It was a fantastic time with mommy, until daddy came home.

Oh well, I guess I will have to teach daddy a lesson tomorrow.

So I still have a cold. I was miserable this morning at 2:30 am when I woke up because my nose was too stuffy for me to breath out of. My Mommy came to my aid and sat up with me and rocked me and made me feel lots better. Grandma was up early today because she had to take my Auntie to the airport. She had to go back to shyster school today. I will miss her, but she will be home here in a month or so and then we can play together in the summer time (I can’t wait for summer…Mommy says it is the best time of year – except for Christmas with Santa) I don’t know what that means, but I am excited for it to come.

Grandma picked me up from my house early. and I stayed with her and then Vickie. I slept most of the day because I didn’t feel good. Mommy came to get me around 1:30 and then I went back home. I started to feel better, and because it was so nice and warm outside, Mommy and I went out for our first walk. We just went to the end of the block, but I got to see the sunset. All those colors it was too coll!

Daddy came home late (Mommy sent him to the store for me) and then they gave me a bath with some new stuff that he just got. It had shea butter in it and I really liked it. I am soft and smell real good now.

Going to go to sleep now so that I will get better sooner

Wow what a day I had today. My Mommy, Daddy, Grandma CC, Auntie Sparky, and I went out to the outlet malls to shop. I love clothes (Daddy says I get that trait from my Mommy). It was so nice outside that I decided I didn’t want to just be in the stroller, I wanted Mommy to carry me in the Baby Bjorn so that I could see everyone and everything that was going on. Mommy was worried that I would get too much sun, so she bought me a hat (actually two hats…one a baseball cap and the other one Grandma CC picked out). So I can’t wait to grow into my new clothes. Mommy say not to rush and to not grow up too fast…we’ll see about that!

We all had lunch/dinner together, and then we went back to Grandma’s house. That is when I decided to not feel good and get a runny nose and sneezes and be generally unhappy. Mommy and Daddy brought me home, but it wasn’t a happy night for anyone at my house.

I hope feel better soon,

Alex (with a cold)

I survived. Mommie didn’t think I could do it but I did! My Auntie Sparky, Auntie Barbie, and Grandma CC all pitched in to be at my beck and call. Mommie was only slight moderately freaked out. She called 8 times the first night and then called at 7:03am the next morning. It is sweet how she worries about me, but finally she relaxed and enjoyed herself with Daddy for their anniversary. Oh so Mommie and Daddy brought me home a present, his name is Dr. Alex Bear. He is wonderful… I just know that we will be life long friends. So let me tell you about what I did on my overnight trip: I ate a lot, I slept a lot, I pooped a ton (literally I think it was a ton… at least that is what Auntie Sparky said) I also had tons of tummy time and did a lot of smiling and being overall adorable. I slept in Autie Sparky’s room at night… I kept playing practical jokes on her, I would make noises in the middle of the night like I was going to wake up. This would cause her to get out of bed and check on me…hahahahahahhahaha I am so funny. Okay everyone, it’s time for me to say goodnight. Thanks everyone for watching me!!!

Happy 5th Anniversary Mommy and Daddy. So I got to see my Auntie Sparky today! When I woke up this morning, Mommy took me out of bed, and then Auntie Sparky fed me. She looks a little like my Mommy, and sounds like her too…but she can’t feed me like my Mommy can. However I have decided that my Auntie Sparky can “fill in” for my Mommy anytime!

I hung out at the house this morning, first with Daddy, then with Auntie Sparky and Auntie Barbie. Mommy came home from work, held me for a few moments, and then it was into the car seat for a drive. We went to Grandma’s house. That is where my parent’s left me. ALONE!

Mommy and Daddy are off on their own (without me mind you) being alone together for their anniversary. They had better not bring me back a little brother or sister… I am so enjoying being the only baby human at home right now.

Since my Mommy and Daddy left me, I have been hanging out with my Auntie Sparky. Mommy keeps calling though…she can be crazy, because I am fine. I have doing great actually. I have been fed, had tummy time, and got tons and tons of holding time.

I hope I will see Mommy and Daddy tomorrow, but until then I am doing great with Auntie Sparky, Grandma CC, Auntie Barbie, Uncle Jimmy, and Rugby and Natasha (although they are pretty loud)

Alex

My Auntie Sparky has arrived! Yeah! Well Mommy says she will be arriving tonight (after I am asleep). I haven’t seen her in a long time, but I am still excited to hang out with her. Mommy (and Daddy) tell me that she likes to watch me on the web cam and I like that!

I was back at Grandma CC’s office playing “consultant” again. That sure is fun. I get to hang out with all kinds of cool ladies at the office (Auntie Barbie, Breanna, Kim, Ashley, Mrs. Wick and the Vickster) and they all take such good care of me! I get fed when I want, changed when I want, held when I want, played with when I want, my plugger in my mouth when I want…just don’t tell them that I have them all wrapped around my little fingers (just like I have done with my Mommy)

Mommy came to get me in after work, and then we went home where I ate and then went to sleep. Mommy worked around the house packing an overnight bag for me…I don’t know what that means, and I am not sure if I am going to like this..we’ll see.

Can’t wait to see my Auntie Sparky,

Alex

It is Wednesday, and you know what that means. Daddy and I are alone together all day. In case you haven’t read this earlier, I have warned Mommy time and time again that I need to be supervised by an adult and Daddy just doesn’t cut it. Mommy has told me time and time again that Daddy is a good Daddy and he loves me and takes very very good care of me. I guess I would just perfer Mommy. Daddy says that I am a “Mamma’s Boy” I am so ok with that title!

Today I just hung out at the house. I supervised Daddy make dinner (pot roast in the slow cooker – a fitting name for my slow Daddy) The whole house smelled so good all day. I can’t wait to taste the potroast – tomorrow or so when Mommy decides to share with me!

Grandma CC came over for dinner, and that is always tons of fun. We watched Baby Motzart (which I like tons) and I got to sit in my table that Grandma got for me when Mommy, Daddyy, and Grandma (and me too inside of Mommy) went to a special lecture on baby safety. I had fun in it, but kept leaning to one side or the other! I will have to work on my sitting up skills!

Later Gator

Happy 1st day of Spring! I don’t know what Spring is, but Mommy says it is lots of fun. You get to go play outside and go to places like the park (whatever that is) and the sun shines and it is warm out. Mommy says that the 1st day of Summer (June 21st) is better because it is her birthday! I will have to remember that day.

Today my Daddy stayed home with me all day. This was the first (of more to come I am sure) of an Alex sitting issue. So Daddy sucked it up and worked from home and played with me all day! Yeah.

Mommy came home from work to “rescue” me and that was great. I love to smile for my Mommy (and Daddy, and Grandma CC, and well…almost anyone who asks me too)

Grandma CC came over with dinner for all of us, but before we (ok Mommy, Daddy, and Grandma CC) Mommy and Grandma CC gave me a bath. It was more of Grandma CC watching Mommy and me and having a great time in the water getting clean. The three of us had great fun. They I got dressed and ate once more before bedtime!

Share more fun later
