I love this little man. He
makes me so happy. I’ve been reading my Baby Zig blog and the
first few months on this blog to remind myself about pregnancy
and newborns. It seems like forever ago. I’m dreading the
complete lack of sleep (I slept in one hour bursts!!) but I’m
excited about the rest. And every time I look at Lex I’m just
amazed at the process. I wonder if we could ever make such a
perfect being again. Poor Baby 2 might be doomed from the
start. :)

We made apple pie yesterday.
Lex helped by standing on the chair and eating the apples. He
also threw in a few of his own ingredients (measuring spoon,
jar of cinnamon, etc.). Today he got back up on the chair to
eat grapes out of the sink (collendar) while I made lunch. He’s
is so helpful. Actually, yesterday he really was helpful when I
was packing the closet. He put all of our shoes into the bottom
of the wardrobe box and then he put all of the extra hangers
into the box too. It was really very helpful and he worked so
hard!

Ok, it’s late now and I gotta get
lots of sleeping in before March :)

After a brief (2 day) blog outage last
week I decided it was time to stop being lazy and make an
offline archive of my blog. Blogger doesn’t make this easy, but
hey, you get what you pay for, right? They did post a little
tutorial that got me started. I have
a few additional notes if anyone else wants to do the same.
Since this is the official baby book as well, I would be very
sad to lose it.

Lots going on lately and
the boy is growing up so fast. I’m going to go play with him
now though because he has been exceptionally patient while I
figured out this archiving thing. It’s cold and dreary out
today and I’m pretty sure he’s as bored as can be :) More
later.

PS> Blogger’s spell
checker doesn’t recognize the words “blog” or “Blogger” :)
Funny.
