He is becoming such a big boy!

Since this last weekend, Alex has hit some major milestones! (And his 7 month birthday.)

He can:
Blow raspberries
move into a sitting position
move forward crawling on all 4's (he skipped the battle crawl)
say his first word (although he doesn't know what it means)

He also is cutting 3 (!!) teeth. His 2 incisors and 1 front tooth. We went and saw Santa on Monday. Instead of crying like most kids, he laughed at him. We also had pictures taken for our Christmas card. Unfortunately, due to someone (and she knows who she is) invading our space, I will not be posting pictures but he is dang cute!

I cannot believe how quickly the time has flown. It seems like just last week I was complaining about him never coming out.

Alex, my love, I hope one day you read this. I hope you know how special you are, that you can do ANYTHING in life you choose to do. I hope that you know how much you are loved. Not just by me but by our entire extended family. I want you to know, son, that because of you, this world is a better place.
