New pictures of Alex will be posted soon. You'll get to see him standing up as well as witness his pumpkin halloween outfit. It's a real treat. Maybe you'll also get to see his two brand new top front teeth. I hadn't mentioned that before? Well, there you go.
I'm turning 32 years old this weekend. Noah has been kind enough to offer up his house to host a weekend long lan party. There will be much beer, many games, possibly some poker, and a couple cigars.

( 3 / 30 )If no news is good news then I've basically got good news. Alex turned 8 months old yesterday. Carrie and I have been married for four years (and here's to many more). My sister turns another marvelous year older this Friday. Work is going ok. Gas prices are better, but my 401k took a huge hit. That's about all there is to say.

( 2.7 / 27 )I finally did it. I updated Alex's 4 month pictures, and added two new galleries to cover his 5th and 6th months. Check it out for yourself if you don't believe me. The 6 month old pictures spilled over onto the second page of his gallery, so look for them there.

( 3 / 17 )We are all officially done with being sick, which is very nice. It was horrible for a day, then uncomfortable for several days after. I'm looking forward to a more normal weekend this weekend.
Carrie put in her two week notice at work yesterday, so we will be removing Alex from day care. I've got myself a stay-at-home mom! This will be great for my wife and child both, and we're all very excited about it.
Look at this outfit that Alex will be wearing some day soon.
Lastly, here's some good advice for dealing with your company IT guy:

( 2.8 / 19 )Alex was really sick for only a day. He's been much better since then, but still is not eating very well. On top of that I got sick enough that I came home from work yesterday. Fortunately Carrie was a great help, because I didn't feel like moving much. But I'm much better today... just in time for Carrie to get sick. I guess if we all had to get sick the weekend was a good time for it to happen.

Alex spent most of last night throwing up. Three times in three hours. When he was finally finished he was so tired that he just sat in my arms and barely moved. Clearly we were concerned but fortunately it has turned out to be ok. We paged our doctor's office and the doc suggested that this was normal, and that it should clear up on its own. Alex slept through the night (although were up frantically checking to make sure he was breathing and not laying in a puddle). I just fed him some formula an hour ago and it seems to be staying in.I just feel bad for the little guy. It's always something. Being a kid is rough, and I don't think being in daycare is helping. They never put him down for naps when he's tired, and three times now he's gotten sick (most likely from daycare). We're considering making Carrie a stay-at-home mom, so stay tuned for details.
For now, Alex seems ok. Grandpa Jebe is coming to watch him this morning, and I suspect that they will have a very subdued but illness free time.

( 3.2 / 18 )Alex has been nothing but awesome since my last post. It makes everything so much easier when he's not sick or popping out teeth. He smiles all the time and he's a ton of fun to play with. We're loving it while we can.
I know I'v been a bit behind on posting new pictures of Alex, so I'm making it my goal for this weekend. We've got a ton of news stuff to share. Heck, he's going to be 7 months old late next week, so we've got three months of pictures to post!
His crawling hasn't gotten him into trouble yet, but he's more mobile every day. We're beginning to child proof. Good bye, sharp corners!
The Brewers have been doing awesome lately. My only fear is that they blow their shot at the wild card. I'd be pretty mad if that happened. Fortunately, the cubbies have been stinking lately. Keep it up, Chicago!
