Baby Xander
We were lucky enough to have nephew Xander all to ourselves Saturday afternoon, and we had a ball ... he loves exploring and testing things out. Balls of yarn, things that make noise or rattle, cork coasters, and our retro globe-style lighting fixtures were a hit (he thought they were balloons and kept pointing at them). Even though we were just playing around the whole time, we were exhausted about 20 minutes in, and my arms are still sore from carrying him around. I have a new appreciation for the job of parenting a kid full time. It's just completely insane. I'm not sure how new parents function at all. Well, actually, I do -- because I'd babysit again in a second -- he's just amazing (for photographic proof of Xander's uber-cuteness, see additional photos on Flickr).
