Belated Birthday Party for Anh Charlie

Xander had a very busy day. Xander went to Daddy's lab, went to Target to get Anh Charlie his birthday gift and spent a few hours at Lazer Tag and enjoyed it immensely. He was enjoying the new scenes that he didn't want to eat nor sleep. He feared that he would miss something. Here he is enjoying seeing everything new.

Yeah! Pictures! (as narrated by Daddy)

Even when exhausted, we can still manage a smile out of our little darling.


A small miscommunication ended in a lovely set of photos with Xander's beautiful cousins.

Cammy intended to make this hat for Duchess, but got impatient so here it is. :) (Simply Maaah-velous, Daaah-ling!)

Xander, over here! Why are you looking over...oh... Daddy has the camera...well...no wonder you'd rather stare at your beautiful cousins...

Here, we have a very excited Xander, posing with the artist responsible for his new hat.

Lastly, before heading to sleep for the night, Xander, in a moment of deep reflection...

MUST...POST...MORE...PHOTOS

OK, OK! Here we are! Xander's had a busy start to the week. He even cancelled one of his appointments with his financial advisor...

So, without further ado, pictures of our favoritest, handsomest little darling...

Hawaiian Xander

Xander wanted to dress like Daddy, and put on a Hawaiian shirt. He's the cutest!

Yo, yo, East Sai-eeed, represent!

Xander, Rock Star

Xander took us to the mall today, and even treated Mommy and Daddy to Koney dogs. There were some kids playing Guitar Hero for the X-Box 360 at one of the stores, and Daddy found out just how rusty he's gotten in the past couple of months. Tonight, we tried to remedy the situation a bit, and Xander wailed along with Daddy. Xander can totally rock!

Carry on, My Wayward Son...

Ya got me, doc...shot in the leg...three friggin times...

Xander had his 2 month/10 week checkup today, and the Doctor was just amazed at him. She checked him all over, all the while admiring his beautiful skin and observing his ox-like strength and cat-like reflexes. He now measures 23 inches, head to toes, and weighs in at a healthy 11 lbs 5 oz. Xander chatted with the doctor, focusing on her face, as she went from side to side, and tracking her fingers around as she waved them in front of him.

We decided to go ahead and give him the full dosage of recommended shots and vaccinations today, and that meant 3 pricks in the thigh, an orally administered Rotovirus vaccine, and a gulp of Tylenol to wash it all down.

He barely fussed at all, this evening. You can't really find the spots where he got the shots unless you know where to look. He even visited his friend, Keegan, for a few hours, and was calm and amicable the entire time.

The Xander, post-trauma, takin' it like a mensch, just hangin' out, playin' with his toys:

Daddy's pretty sure that Xander gets his remarkable fortitude from his Mommy's side...
