Five years ago Jamie and I headed to the hospital, excited, and as for me, ready to get that baby out of me! After a relatively short labor Alexander James was born. His lungs were collapsed so he was flown to the University of Missouri Hospital-the closest hospital with a NICU. During his stay there the nurses called him their "monster baby" He was born a week overdue, and was 8 lbs-he was a monster compared to the other babies! Now, five years later he's still a little monster...although not in size.
Monday night during bedtime A.J. asked me if we could go to Cinnbon for caramel milkshakes (caramel chillatas) After making him say Cinnbon about five times (it was soooo cute!) I agreed. Wednesday morning A.J. took goody bags to school for all of his friends, and on the way h
ome we got a caramel milkshake. Later that afternoon, he opened his presents. He got a helicopter rescue set with a helicopter, boat, and rescue divers and a set of German emergency vehicles. The emergency vehicles have sirens-and I think that Rachel might want one so she can always remember the LOVELY sound of European sirens, lol. We went to Anthony's Pizza for dinner (buy one get one free night!) and had some cake afterwards.
