New foods! New sports! New teef!

The beauty of allowing so much time to pass between blog posts is that there's more to report with each entry. (Ah, ha, now you see my Master Plan, whereas before you might have thought I was just lazy... Shame on you for thinking such things.)

About a month and a half ago, Alec got his first tooth! Followed a few days later by his second tooth! At that rate, one would think that his mouth would be full of teeth by now, perhaps constantly growing them in rows, like the mighty shark. Apparently our baby is not a shark, because those are the only two teeth he has grown to date. So... we can file Alec firmly in the "Not a Shark' category.
Alec has also discovered his love of swinging. 
But more importantly, I have discovered just what great-looking fingers I have. Here, I photographed them to share with all of you! (These pictures also contain images of Alec, but mostly i wanted to brag about what fantastic fingers I have.) 

I mean, wow. 
Hazel has also discovered a fun new activity: Soccer! There's a group that meets on Saturdays, and they play lots of fun games that develop basic soccer skills. Watch out, Uncle Tim! 

Hazel and Alec are getting along great. We're starting sleep training with Alec, and it seems like he's alternating nights of good and bad sleep. (Still, as of two weeks ago it was all bad sleep, so we'll take it.0 

Other than that, there's not too much going on. Except that we're moving again. And Elise was offered a residency last week, which she'll be starting at the end of the month. And some other stuff. Plus Alec has started eating real food!
See? Isn't it fun to get blog updates that are chock full o' fun stuff? Lazy, indeed! :)
