( 3 / 23 )A couple new things to mention. Alex got a cold over the weekend and had to stay home from daycare for a couple days. No fever involved, just a runny nose and a fussy baby. The Baby Tylenol and Baby Vicks both helped a lot so now he's back in prime form. I stayed home with him all day Monday which scared me to death. It was the first time I'd been alone with Alex for an entire day. As it turned out we had a great time.
Our friends Jackie and Noah are taking a week long trip to New York over the holiday and we want to wish them both a great trip! I'm sure it will be fun.
Also, new pictures of Alex up in the gallery. Fun stuff in there. You get to see his new chair!
Lastly, some exciting news about some upcoming Marvel movies !

( 2.6 / 14 )I haven't had much opportunity to post lately. Work has been busy and we've kind of gotten into a schedule with Alex going to daycare. Things have been great though. The daycare seems to be good. Alex is happy and well fed. We even put up some new pictures of him in the 10-12 week section of the web site. Not much else to report. I think we might travel to the zoo this weekend, but that idea is still up in the air. I'll keep you updated.

( 2.8 / 12 )Yesterday was Alex's first day at daycare and also Carrie's first day back to work. I think both went well. Perhaps Alex's day was better than Carrie's.
It was hard dropping him off at daycare. He started crying before we left, but when I called to check on him later in the day the nice lady told us that he stopped crying and took a nap after we left him, and that he'd been happy the rst of the day. He stuck to his eating and napping schedule very well, and he even made some friends there. I don't think he knows that he made friends, but his slightly older friends do.
All in all I think it was a good day for everyone.

( 2.9 / 8 )One of my absolute favorite eating places burned to the ground last night. The Silver Spur was the source of a lot of tatsy meals and great times for me over the last ten years. It will be deeply missed.

( 2.9 / 10 )We went to the Infant GI doctor on Friday, and learned nothing. We're awaiting results of a blood test, and a forthcoming upper GI X-Ray. So nothing new to report. Alex is eating better again, so it seems to me that we're all doing ok.
Carrie is going back to work starting next week, and there will be a lot of changes that come along with that. Our morning schedule is suddenly going to be much more rushed, but we'll figure it out. While Carrie is at work (three days a week), Alex will be at day care. I'm looking forward to hearing the opinion of the day care folks. Maybe they will think Alex is doing great, and maybe they will think something is still wrong with him. Either way, they see a lot of babies, so their opinion will be like gold to me.
In the mean time I've uploaded some additional pictures of Alex to the web site. Enjoy!

( 3.4 / 8 )Well, Carrie had her 30th birthday last week. I think it went well. Maybe some day she will post and we'll find out. We left for the weekend to go to the Wisconsin Dells and had a great time in the process. We didn't really want to come back, but we missed our little guy so we did.
Speaking of Alex, he's still doing ok. He's not sleeping through the night yet which worries Carrie, and he's starting to get picky about how much food he'll eat again. In the past when Alex has eaten less it's always led to him not feeling well, and us going to the doctor. So far he's ok, but we're both concerned. I'd love to make it through one week with out any major concerns. I don't think I'm asking too much.
