April and the arrival of Alex!

Alexander Harrison arrived April 1st at 3:46 am.  He weighed 8lbs 5oz and was 19.8" long.


 Here's Alex meeting big brother Mitch for the first time.

Getting ready to leave the hospital

Meeting Charlotte

I think Mitch is in love with his little brother.  He is a great helper so far and always wants to hold Alex.  We have lots of pictures of this as you will see!


 All snuggled up!

 Some open-eye time


 Mitch as a construction worker.  He was wearing his hard hat and playing with his excavator but the pictures (other than this one) turned out blurry because he was moving so fast!

Sleeping on mom...a little bit of a sleepy smile

 Happy Easter!  We dyed eggs on Easter while Alex was napping (successfully in the bassinet upstairs!)


 Mitch attempted to use the wire holder to dip the eggs but didn't quite get the concept.  Luckily most of the dye came off in the bath later!



 I wanted to get at least 1 picture of Alex wearing this outfit.  It was super cute but newborn size and is almost too small for him already!  Our awesome Labor and Delivery nurse, Lisa, gave it to him after he was born.  She said she likes to give the babies their first bath and then dress them!  Fine by me!  It also has matching socks with alligators on them which should fit him a little bit longer.


 More snuggle time with big brother Mitch.  Mitch saw Matt laying on the couch holding Alex like this and he wanted to try it out too.



 Mitch made a picture for Alex with some help from Matt to write his name. 
So here is a picture of Mitch just a few days after coming home from the hospital.  Just wanted to compare that with Alex's picture below.  I think they look like brothers!



Tummy time with Charlotte
