Alexander Daniel

I've noticed where folks put up pictures of their little ones from the beginning 'til the present, and I thought I would do the same for my Alex.
I know this picture looks scary, but really it wasn't. I was never afraid or worried about Alex. I cried that he had to be sedated and didn't open his eyes for 3 days, but I never thought that he wouldn't survive. He was in NICU for 14 days and since then has hardly ever been sick. He started out at 5lb 4oz and really hasn't gained much since (yet, he keeps getting taller...)!

Alex was born in Feb and blessed in April (which was when he was due, so that worked out!) Would you look at how beautiful he was. Man, everyone thought he was so pretty. Ok, we look pretty awesome here too.

Here is a collage of birthdays 1-5. We've had Nemo, Buzz lightyear, Go Diego Go, Transformers and this year Star Wars. I don't think there is much left in the boy genre; super heros I guess. Ok, I had to add these last two because I thought it would be fun to see our friends when they were little. Stan and Haley are next to Alex. The Rays kids, Alex W. and Luke is facing the other way.
Ok, you can't see the kids faces, but can you pick out K.C., Stan, or Luke?
