12 weeks old tomorrow!

hey, everyone! sorry it's taken me so long to get the post up!
we are doing well - alexei is starting to laugh a whole lot more and is really interactive. when he is laying under his little gym thing he kicks at the bars so that the toys shake - don't know if it's intentional or just thought it was a fun thing to do. :) he loves to lay down next to each other and read books - he listens really well and his eyes are glued to the pictures. so much fun! i think his favorite is" goodnight moon".
he has outgrown most of his 0-3 month clothes now and is in size 2 diapers! it is crazy how time flies! as excited as we are about watching him learn more and more and his little personality coming out, it is sad to see the infant stage passing away so quickly. it has been a whole lot of fun and looking forward to a whole lot more fun ahead, Lord willing. :)
aunt kristin and uncle john came into town this past weekend to see alexei and celebrate kristin's 25th birthday - lots of fun family time. :)

i have gotten several comments from people that i don't have enough pics of myself in the blog - that's because i am typically behind the camera, but here is one but it's not the best of alexei. i think he was hitting his limit on photo ops. :)

"talking" to grandpa. it was really funny - he kept going for like 10 minutes. :)the dudes hanging out - grandpa matt, daddy, alexei and uncle john.
super cute hawaiin outfit a friend lent to us:)

we've started playing more music for alexei using the computer's media player which has that graphics program where cool designs in different colors move to the beat of the music. he loves watching the colors move and sometimes bounces a little to the music. he hardly blinks. it's really fun to watch him enjoy it so much.
getting really good at holding his head up and pushing up on his arms so he can look around the room.
i bought this t-shirt for him back in march when kristin, john, my mom and dad, and nick and i went to denver for spring break. as much as daddy loves to ski, i think alexei is destined.:)
it reads:"i may be small but i can ski with the big boys - brackenridge colorado" super cute.
ok, that's all for now. thanks for caring!

I'm usually behind the camera too. I made Brian a coffee tumbler with a collage of pictures of him and Josh for Christmas last year. I had no problem finding pictures. Brian made me a mini album of mom and Josh pics this year and discovered the shortage (as in a single digit #) of pictures with me in them. We always had trouble finding "couple" pictures before Josh as well. I guess we need to start asking more strangers to take our pictures.
