[ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 20:30:59 08/17/02 Sat Author: Heidi Subject: 9 Month old Alex We decided instead of waiting 3 weeks for Alex’s pictures to come back that we would instead have them taken this month at one of those “portraits-in-an-hour” studios. I have to admit, the instant gratification is very satisfying! The bear in the picture is the one John and I made for Alex and the Build-A-Bear Workshop in Downtown Disney at Disneyland in June. The bear’s name is Teddyxander, “Teddy” for short. Alex’s full name is Alexander, so they are meant to be together! Alex is quite mobile, which means following him wherever he goes, and just yesterday started pulling himself to his feet. Now I have to make sure he’s not going to topple over! His 9 month check-up was Thursday, and he now weighs 18 ibs, 8 oz and is 29 in tall. His height is average for his age, but he is somewhat thin. The doctor said it is nothing to worry about, especially since he eats like a horse! I’m sure part of it too is that he does not sit still. He crawls wherever he wants to go, and even follows us around the house. Mushu, our cat, is great with him. He will flop down next to Alex and just beg for him to pull on his ears, tail, legs, etc. The other night Alex was lying on top of Mushu, and the cat didn’t mind a bit! Just when I thought he was my cat, I guess he is actually Alex’s! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
