When I got home from work tonight, Dexter WALKED over to me to give me a hug.

I don’t even remember what else happened today … but solo-walking followed by a hug makes today the best day!

On Monday, Dexter finally took his very first crawling-in-a-straight-line steps!

For months he has been getting around with his awkward move of scooting/rolling/sitting.  (here)  (here)  and (here)   And his new milestone achievement certainly didn’t come without a few bumps and bruises (here).

Check out this video from a very proud mommy and daddy!

Dexter has been rolling for about a month now, but it wasn’t until just now that I was able to capture it on video … with a little help from Sophie.

Welcome to Daily Dex!

We live in Mexico City, Mexico. Our families live in the Midwest, USA. The distance didn't seem so bad when it was just my husband and I, but after Dexter arrived, and especially after Alexandra arrived, 1500 miles was just too much for our families.

Shortly after Dexter was born, so was Daily Dex: our little blog is designed to be a safe haven for all the gushing, bragging and sharing of Dexter’s & Alex's daily accomplishments and adorable little milestones.

In other words, if you came here – you are asking for it!
