Some New Photos

Ben admires the proliferation of flowers on our hibiscus.

Ben in Daddy's hoodie = Jedi?

Ben and Katerina were being really cute, but then they were caught in the act, so they stopped. Well, they kept playing, but the cute moment, which I can't even remember now, was lost.

Alex dealt with some jaundice when he was about a week old, so he got to spend some time in the sun. It was kind of stressful for me, trying to make sure he ate every two hours (or more) and fighting to keep him awake for this feedings. He kept falling asleep while nursing and only nursing for a few minutes at a time, when he needed to be nursing for at least 15 minutes at a stretch. By the end of the weekend he was doing much better (he gained 4 ounces in that weekend alone!).

Ben spent some time in the sun with Alex.

Ben was getting "a little bit rest;" climbing up on the couch, squeezing his eyes shut, and getting down to play again, stating, "okay, I'm awake!" Then a couple minutes later he'd declare that he needed more rest and do it all over again.
