9/30

Lex has his most "awake time" in the early morning and again in the early evening. Lorelai loves to see her brother's eyes open- she insists that Lex is watching her. Lex is very curious and likes to look out into the room to see what the family is doing. The doctor pointed out how smart he is at our appointment today too!

We took a trip out to Picture People today to get some pictures of Lex and his big sister Lorelai. Lex was a brave little guy, sleeping thru most of the session and looking pensive for the rest of it.
The two looked adorable in their matching lion (kitty) hats crocheted by Mama.

Lorelai tells us she and Lex are best friends. There is nothing like the love of a sibling.

We spent a quiet day today around the house. Lorelai went out with Aunt Momo, Uncle Frank, and Chris so it was low energy for a few hours in the day time. Lex mainly wanted to nap and so did Mama.

Lorelai loves her baby brother Lex. She asks to hold him multiple times a day and will kiss and hug him in the middle of playing. Lex is her best friend.

We took Lex out on the town this afternoon to visit with the Englebach's. Lex is happy to snuggle up in any location, business as normal.

Lex is still sleeping for the majority of the day. He needs to save all his energy for growing. Every day Lex shows us how strong he is. He's our Little Man.

Lex looks like he wants a snuggle, Mama! Though we try to keep Lex in his napper when he's sleeping, Lorelai often insists on hugging and kissing her little brother when he is sleeping or awake.

Sweet dreams, little baby Lex. You sleep so peacefully no matter what noise is going on in the world around you!

Lorelai insisted that Lex wanted to play with her dolly today. Lorelai has been very sweetly sharing everything that she is allowed to with her little brother. At the doctor's today, we talked about what she can share and what is only for big girls and boys (like food, small toys, and crayons).

It is finally time to take Lex home. Last night when Lorelai had to leave the hospital (with Mama and Lex still there), Lorelai was so upset thinking about leaving her brother behind. She even tried to push the bassinett out into the hall with her as she was leaving.
Today, she danced into the hospital room, ready to take her family home for good. We spent a quiet night at home. Lex is getting a look at his home and family. We love him very much.

Lorelai came to the hospital to meet her baby brother today. It was wonderful to have the whole family together for the first time.  When Lorelai saw the nurse or doctors try to interact with her brother, she immediately became very protective crying and demanding they leave Lex alone. "That's my baby! You can't have him!"
