Alexandre surprised me today twice! In the morning while giving him breakfast he began to make some adorable sounds like EN GAS. When he was just a few months old he would say Ga Ga, but it didn’t last. So hopefully this time it will. He later in the afternoon today started doing more GA GA sounds too.
During breakfast this morning I was also playing with him and showing him how to tap his hands ( I woudl say Bravo, and I’d put his hands together). then Later during Chloe’s french class, there was more tapping in the song, if you are happy and you know clap your hands, and here again I tapped his hands. Well, right before nap time I was holding him in my arms and Chloe was singing the song and clapping her hands and then Alex clapped his hands too!! it was soooo cute!! I made Chloe do it over and over again and he kept copying her. They were both so excited ( as was I). I grabbed my video camera and tried to get them to do it. It was too cute for words.
He is growing like a week and doesn’t even fit in size three shoes. He is starting to wear 12-18 months clothing already.
He is having very good nights, going down around 9pm and waking up around 7am. he takes one to two short naps in the morning and then one really long one in the afternoon ( about 2-3 hours) from about 1:30 to 4:30pm. he eats three meals now. We tried oatmeal last week but he started to become very fussy at night the last couple of days. We are not sure if it’s teething or if it’s the oatmeal giving him a hard time. So I am cutting it out for a few days just to see if it gets better.
Sue and Artos were here this past weekend. THey got to meet Chloe and Alex for the first time. They were really great with the kids and kids loved them back. We went to the St-Patricks day parade, where Chloe got terrified of the loud drums and bands and ended up sleeping through the whole thing and then Sunday we went to the Aquarium. Fun weekend over all. I also had to respond to an RFP which was annoying, but I managed, with Sue’s help, to get it done.
Well that is all for now, we love you Alex!!
Mouagh!
