Alex Back to Normal

The good news is that Alex was feeling better Tuesday and returned to daycare on Wednesday. The bad news is that Michele and I both caught a cough/sore throat! We're not even sure we've got the same thing. Regardless, this will be a quiet weekend here.

Last Saturday (just before he got sick) he was in a good mood, so we let him sit on the new couch. He was very good to it and may get to use it again some day!

He is becoming quite skilled at the use of a speaker phone. He's also become quite proficient with solid (OK, mushy!) food and will lean into the spoon (with an open mouth!) when he sees it coming. Sometimes he gets distracted and looks away, but I've taught him that a "moo" means he should straighten his head because there's another spoonful coming. He still misses once in a while. He's always happy when his belly is full, even if he sometimes frowns during the process.
