Everyone now and then, after he finishes his bottle, Dexter will flip over and snuggle up.  I would sit like this for the whole night if Dave would let me.

Really, there is nothing more heart-warming than your baby snuggling.

Sleepy Head

When Dexter was first born he would sleep around the clock, especially if we put him in his carseat or stroller.  Dinners out were a breeze – we just made sure he was snuggled in and voi-la … evening out just like the pre-baby days.

That was a short-lived phase.  Now our dinners out with Dex include a quick clearing of the table before a juggling act of eating/trying to keep the steak knife out of his mouth.

JUST KIDDING.

I try to avoid ordering anything that would require a steak knife.  One handed eating – fish, pasta, a sandwich – whatever can easily be waved out of his ever-reaching hands.

And then, just the other day, he fell asleep while we were out.  It was a little unexpected, but very welcomed.  And it made me a tad nostalgic for those itty-bitty Dexter days.

Only 4 days old, the stroller straps covered his whole body.

Sound asleep in his carseat.

He even fell asleep on boat rides.

Dexter continues to sleep like a champ and only gets up once at night.  So now there’s nothing left to do in his nursery except take pictures!

… and that was it!  Dexter has hit a much-appreciated milestone: he only woke up one time last night!  Granted, this milestone could use some perfecting, but we are happy with the progress.

This is the face of a well rested little boy!

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!
