About Alexandra: Alexandra had a very busy week. She took it all in stride and was a very good girl this week. It has been very hot here and yet it has not seemed to bother her. She is looking forward to being surrounded by family for the 4th of July!
What's New: Alexandra has discovered stuffed animals. For the first time this week, she is "playing" with her green monkey and purple cat. I saying playing, but chewing on might be the better way to describe it! Grandma Janet got Alexandra a Bumbo Seat. We tried it out once and she seemed to like it a lot. It is perfect as she starts trying to sit up on her own.
The last several mornings have been the same routine. Alexandra starts stirring so I get up and get her bottle ready. When I come back to get her up, she has escaped from the swaddle blanket, is talking to herself and is chewing on the blanket. As soon as I say hello, she gives me a huge smile! I love her smiles. Thankfully she is letting me catch more on camera so you can see some of them too.
Visitors: Alexandra met several people this week. On Sunday, we went to lunch with long time friends Kevin & Edith. They brought Alexandra a very cute stuffed puppy dog. On Tuesday, we had lunch with a teacher friend Karen. We also did some shopping at Carter's. Not that Alexandra needs any more clothes! That same day, we had dinner with Grantie Lorel, Great Uncle David, Cousin Darren (who is leaving for the Peace Corps) and Don & Shirley. On Thursday, she met some of my fellow teachers when she attended the remembrance vigil for Darren Thomas. She met Kristy, Michele L., Michelle Z., Tony, Tim, Debbie, Jackie, Anne, Ginger and one of my former students Lindsay. She also saw Craig and Rebecca again. She was quiet and easy going until right when it was time to leave. Everyone adored her...as usual! Here are some pictures from her outings this week:
