A Little Vacation to Amsterdam!

So we got Alexander's passport on Friday and then decided to take a little vacation. We went to Amsterdam on the ferry! We were only on the ferry for 2 nights and we got to visit Amsterdam all day Wednesday. We wish we would have been there longer but we really enjoyed our time away! Alexander had alot of fun and was excellent. All he did today was sleep! We must have worn him out! He was glad to be back home! :)

Today we only have 9 days till we leave! We have a get together with our friends and fam on Sat and then appointments next week and we are set to take off!

Making Strides!!!

Alexander is doing wonderful and the doctors are so proud of him. He got the okay to fly from the cardiologist too! sigh - What a relief! His sat levels have to be above 80% to fly and his were right on yesterday. Dr. Kirk said they might go down a little in the air but that is normal with everyone. He said he might turn a little blue but its nothing to worry about.

Just after he was born his sats were at 65% , so considering he didn't have his op for a day and a half we know he will be fine!!!! :) He wasn't on any oxygen before the op either.

He is rolling over all the time now as well. They other day he rolled over 4 times in a row. We have hard wood floors and he was on the rug, so that is as far as mommy would let him go! :) We also received his passport today as well! We can officially go to America now! Yeah!

So as of today we have 15 days until we leave! :)

P.S. This is Alexander playing in a exersaucer at his friends birthday party!!! :)

Alexander is a US Citizen

So we had our appointment in London to get Alexander's passport, to report his birth abroad and to register for his ssn. It was a long two days but we managed. So now we are waiting on his passport and we can officially go back to the states. They said it should take about 2 weeks. Yeah!

Alexander is doing great and he keeps rolling over. He can nearly roll from his back to his front now too. His one arm gets in the way and he gives up. He tries hard though.

We go back to the heart doctor on April 17th. He is doing wonderful though!!!

Just Packing!

Not much too new! Just the same ole same old. We have been packing all week and getting quotes from shipping company's. Hopefully the things will be gone soon! Its takes 4-12 weeks to get to the states. At that rate we won't get all our things until July!

Alexander is still our growing little boy. He loves to go on walks with Mommy and since the weather has been acting nice we have been taking advantage of it.
