after losing an expected 10% or so of his body weight, young Alexander has roared back to 7lbs 13.4oz just one day before his two week birthday! a happy healthy 13 day old newborn. Alexander has been out and about now quite a few times and has decided that the infant carrier is the perfect place to catch a snooze, letting mom and dad get some essential shopping done when needed. unfortunately, sleeping when the car is not running is not his favorite and mom and dad are still walking around in a sleep-deprived haze and short bursts of coffee-fueled clarity.

but who wouldn't go through it all for this little guy?
