It's been a while...



Sorry to take so long to update our blog I promise I will be better from here on in. Life with a new baby has been very busy. It seems people are always coming and there are lots of people for Xander to meet, plus all the appointments and such. I am glad there is less to do now that Xander is getting older. Xander is eight weeks old now and doing great he weighs 14.5 lbs which means he has put on 6lbs since he was born. Xander sleeps great at least 8 hours straight every night. So we couldn't be happier. Xander is a very happy baby who loves people which is great. The only hard thing is that he has had a stuffy nose since he was born which can be a problem every now and again but I really can't complain.

One of the best parts of bringing Xander home is watching his cousins react to him. When Carson first held Xander he was in such awe and when Xander made a little noise Carson says "Is that his voice?" The funniest though was Brady, Brady kept calling Xander Boston which is his other cousin (Ashley's son) who is four month's older. When Brady got home he asked Cherelle (his mom) "how come Sharlee has Boston now?" Cherelle had to explain to him that Xander was a new baby that had come out of my tummy. Bradley loves Xander she called him Ba-Xander before he was born now she calls him La-Xander. It's pretty cute.

Lamont has been at his new job (Falco Electric) for just over two months now and he is loving it. Things are great there he likes the guys he works with and they like him. As for me I am loving being a Mom. I love waking up every morning and spending time with my little man. I love watching him discover the world around him.

Sorry it took so long to update I promise I will be better!
