May 26th - Xander starts crawling

May 25th - Xander starts pulling up

Xander started pulling himself up on anything he could get to. His toy chest is the perfect height for him.

A prince and his princess

Xander's personality has done a complete 180. When he was 0-5 months old, he wouldn't let mom or dad put him down or let anyone else hold him. If someone asked to hold him, just going into the motion of handing him to someone would send him into hystarics. But one day, Xander learned how to sit up on his own and decided that life wasn't so bad. Now we can take him anywhere. When we are at the grocery store, I always hear people giggling behind me and when I look up Xander is giving them the sweetest smile. He laughs and waves at new faces. He loves kids, and plays on the floor well with others. I so love this new personality that he has discovered. A few weekends ago we went to brunch with my dad and everyone was just getting a kick out of him. He was offering his cookie to anyone who walked by and the older couple next to us asked if they could hold him so he just hung out at the other table for awhile. It's been so great!!

Who's that baby

Who's that baby (who's that baby)
Lovely baby (who's that baby) Beautiful baby (who's that baby)

It's so great to see Xander exploring his environment. He gets a kick out of seeing himself in the mirror. He gave that beautiful baby lots o' kisses!!!!
