Our big man is 10 weeks today! I watched a live c-section on the Today Show yesterday and actually shed a few tears thinking back to 10 weeks ago as Alekzander was welcomed into the world by a team of doctors and nurses. Its amazing to think that 10 weeks ago Alekzander couldn't do any of these 10 things:
1. Nurse effectively
2. Smile in response to a silly mommy or daddy
3. Coo and talk
4. Do push-ups on his play mat
5. Sit up tall in his Bumbo
6. Grasp toys in his hand (on purpose)
7. Take a bath (and enjoy it, too!)
8. Stay awake for 2 hours straight
9. Kick and flail his arms and legs playfully on the changing table
10. Make and maintain eye contact
While all of these feats amaze me, my favorite two skills that Alekzander has learned are #2 and #10. His wide, gummy smile and baby blues melt my heart, easily 10 times a day!

I love how you and Andy are keeping a wonderful memory book for your family to be able to view whether they are near or far and that you will be able to share as you handsome little one grows up. I also love how your love story started, you two are a wonderful site in these times where many look at the negatives. Cheers to you both for being so completely inspiring.
