In Spanish, the word for baby girl is “nena”.  Dexter seems to like that word better than baby, so we have been talking about Nena a lot the last few weeks.

Dexter’s energy level never ceases to impress me … this video was taken 30 minutes before he went to bed.

I guess it’s no wonder he sleeps 11 hours a night!

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!
