Week Nine

I am late in posting week nine's update so this will be shorter than normal. Please check out Alexandra's special two month post from last Thursday. She had some interesting things to say!

About Alexandra: Alexandra went through a few days of fussiness which I attribute to a mental growth spurt. There is a book called The Wonder Weeks which discusses 10 significant mental leaps that babies take in the first 20 months of life. One of these occurs at week 8-9. By the end of the week, she was back to her smiley, happy self.

When we got the bouncy seat from our friends the Rifkins, they also gave us a matching swing. We used it for the first time this week and Alexandra seemed to enjoy it. It is small and portable.

What's New: Alexandra holds on to objects more and more. She seems to like grabbing and holding on to burp cloths. As we were trying to take the weekly photo, she kept trying to take the paper or would bat it away.

Visitors: Alexandra's Grandma Sara came to visit for all week! Mommy had an extra set of hands to help her out and Alexandra got some quality time with grandma! We also went to Grantie Lorel's house where Alexandra met her cousin Darren and some of Lorel's friends. She wore one of the Ralph Lauren outfits sent by Uncle Alex. Our little girl is a fashionista!

Photos: Here is our little cutie at 9 weeks!
