Christmas Morning!

I rarely get sappy on my blog, but I just have to admit that when I look at Alex he melts my heart. He is so sweet and seeing everything through his eyes makes the world a much more interesting place. Things are new and exciting. I can't wait for you guys to be here to experience first hand the wonder that is Alex. It's going to be here before you know it! I love you!!!

How fun to see Alex going for the gifts! He was trying to get the wrapping paper. As usual, everything goes straight to his mouth.

Thank you for his Christmas Eve Outfit...

Alex looked adorable in this outfit! Check out his little Nikes. He is a doll!

Christmas Eve

Alex received so many gifts last night. Everyone loved the outfit you sent him. He was sooo cute. I changed him into some pijamas when he laid down for a nap. He slept while we ate which was nice. He was so well behaved. Alex just watched everything. It's nice to see Matt and Kyle with him. Matt seems to have fun holding and looks pretty comfortable with him. Kyle is still a little awkward, but very sweet.

Ciccio Bello.

I love this picture. He just got done eating and I plopped him down with Ryan. He's still got food on his bib and I haven't washed off his face, but he doesn't care. He's just happy to be sitting with Dad and watching Mom. Che bello!

Awe...

Tutto sbanciugoso, ma contento!

Sweater Vest

He's finally fittig into the sweater vest and shirt dad got him in October. It's still a little loose on him, but he looks too cute.

Yum!

Here is the apple you all sent him. I took it out and rinsed it and gave it to Alex right away. Everything you give him goes straight to his mouth! Yum!

O Tannenbaum O Tannenbaum...

Here is our Christmas tree. We decided to put it up in the basement where there's a little more room. I didn't want to move the glider from the living room. It's so nice because I can rock Alex to sleep when he's trying to fight sleep. The ornament is what we got a the Saint James Art Fair. It's a little fuzzy, but it has our names and there's even a little doggie. We got the stockings not too long ago. I put Alex's name on one and Katie's on another. We got the stocking hooks today.

Say Mamma!

I tried to get him to say mamma, but it looks like he's saying dadda. Everyone at work is telling me he's going to say dadda first because it's easier to say. You be the judge.

Alex mi stringe la faccia!

Alex loves my glasses

Alex has started to grab my glasses right off my face!

Naso, Bocca...

I can't believe I spent so much time thinking I was ugly! I was just fine! Ginny has been pulling out all these old pictures. I think here I'm on the bus going to the train station. I think we were going to Venice.

Armani...

Here he is in his Armani Junior hat. Ann is holding him.

Feeding Time

Katie loves to come watch. She gets to lick the "bowl" when Alex is done.

I tried to give him his bottle, but he didn't want it. He wanted his food! He ate sweet potatos.

The little coat you got him.

It's so funny because when we put him in his car seat his little arms stay stretched out. I don't think he can move them in this coat. He stays nice and warm though.

I found these pictures on my facebook. Ginny posted them. I haven't seen these in sooo long!

O Sole Mio...

Ryan thinks Alex looks like a little gondolier in this outfit.

Finalmente delle foto nouve!!!

Alex "Pumpkin" Lundgard

My little pumpkin! Dad and I dressed him up while he was here and put a couple of pumpkins by him. The pumpkins fell and did Alex!
