Once again it has been a while since the last blog. Hopefully we can get back on track with the regular posting. Alex has adapted to the rental apartment after a tough couple of weeks. She has found some good spots to run around inside and with the carpet there is no bamboo floor to damage.

Samantha is almost 3 months old now and has become a smiler. Sam smiles whenever she gets the slightest amount of attention.



It has been a cold winter so far and when Alex goes out she puts on a hat and shoes. Two things that were always tough to keep on a few months ago.

Besides saying a lot more words recently Alex does tumbles and climbs all over the place.

After a playful time in the bath every night Alex puts on a towel and runs around for 10mins in her towel.

Mum found some glasses that Carolyn gave for eye testing and Alex said she wouldn't need them even though they looked quite funny on her.

Samantha has a lot of catching up to Alex and she has started to lift her head and turn it the last few days.



Alex is a good sharer and allowed Samantha to look at a DVD on Alex's DVD player.

Alex likes to have a lot of fun and with Samantha rocking in the chair Alex wanted to join her for company.

Mum lets Alex vacuum from time to time and Alex has a blast!

There has been a lot of snow and now ice everywhere outside and besides a quick splash at the pool Alex has been home bound. Alex has had Mum reading to her a lot and Alex is speaking more words every day. Alex likes to look in the fridge now and then to see what she could find. Some strawberries and a Kit Kat were the best things!

It was all snow today outside which meant everyone stayed indoors and Samantha spent most of the day sleeping.

Alex helped Mum wash and dry cloths and then pretty much played and ran around the place. Mum got some video footage of Alex doing tumbles on the floor and in the picture below Alex tried one onto the couch.

Samantha has been smiling a lot the last few days and has become very alert of what is going on. She is now just over 9weeks old.
