Our Visit with the Etuks


Alex and Mayen kept their daddys busy during our visit. You can tell the daddys love every minute of it though.


There was a cry-free moment when we introduced Alex and Mayen...they are pals now...can't you tell?

The day was a little exhausting for little Alex. Here he is chillin with Mom and Dad.




While You Were Sleeping


Alex is much fun to watch...even while he is sleeping. These are our two favorite poses. We call them "No pictures please" (left) and "Power to the people" (top-right).

Grandpa and Grandma Sones visit with Alex





Grandpa and Grandma Sones came for a visit. Alex had plenty of time to bond with them. It was a wonderful time and Alex enjoyed getting spoiled by the grandparents.

Alexander at 1 week old


The little guy is 1 week old in this picture. He is doing great and doing all the things that babies do...eat, sleep, poop.

Alexander and Grandma Carlen

Grandma spent a week and a half helping to make sure that Alexander and I were well taken care of. We are so grateful that she took the time to cook, clean, reorganize and hang with us. It sure made our first week at home easier.

Time To Go Home


Alexander is all bundled up and ready to go home. This is first trip and he is buckled in tight for the car ride. By the look on his face, we are not sure he likes it. Don't worry Alex, you will be home soon.

Finally, A Chance to Sleep


It was a long day and now that Alex is born, mommy has a chance to rest. (back by popular demand)
