Changes















We stare at Aksel so much that we hardly notice any changes to his appearance. However, we then see pictures from his first days and realize how much more active he is and how chubby (read: healthy) he is now! He likes to interact with us much more, and he's easily amused by us being silly with him- we loves his smiles. As well, he seems to enjoy being read to, but he doesn't like to hear his book about chameleons; he'd far prefer Squishy Turtle or Brown Bear Brown Bear. I think he prefers fiction over non-fiction, but that's understandable.

So, the first picture is 5 minutes after birth, and the second is a picture of him yesterday (both taken on my phone). I'm sure the Chicago family will be amazed at how different he is than when they last saw him.

I love the new picture and miss seeing him smile!! I seem to remember him crying when I read the chameleon book to him. He must not like those weird animals. Can't wait to see him - oh and you guys too - in a couple of weeks!

I think Aksel is looking like Grandpa Scot or Grandpa Gordie.
