Ahhhh - Thrush!
How could I forget?
We got it after I had a wonderful battle with Mastitis and ended up battling thrush for many - many weeks. Poor little Alex had to deal with having a purple mouth due to the Gentian Violet. Which after about a week of everything being purple, we had to step up the treatment on both of us by taking Diflucan for 3 weeks to get rid of it.
Don't miss that part at all!
It's hard to believe he was ever this little. I remember that he would "sleep suck" during his napping and I just thought it was the cutest thing ever.
It's hard to believe it's been a year already.
One of my all time favorite pictures is below. Look at those cheeks. He wasn't born with that much cheek. He grew them! And we could see them grow. We love those cheeks!
People often thing Alex is "ahead" of his age group - while that is true, it's really just his personality. Look at that "I want to GO!" personality in his eyes. He always wanted to be upright, crawling ("going") when he could crawl, or walking when he could take steps - moving moving moving. He was quite the kicker in the womb, too.
It's nothing I've done - I swear!
It's all him.
Plus, remember - I have no idea what I am doing anyway. I'm a first-timer at this.
