Talk about confusing! I’d love to know what was going on in Alex’s head when we came home from the hospital without Spencer. He was already confused when he visited the hospital and didn’t see “baby”. We showed him lots of pictures, and tried to explain that he’d be home in a few days. For the most part, we just played with him and made him feel extra special for a few more days before bringing home his brother.
One of the most exciting things was having my parents around for the week. Alex was in Heaven chasing and being chased, dancing, playing dinosaurs and cars and trains, and generally being crazy! Here’s a quick clip of some dancing:
We enjoyed a nice walk on the nearby river walk. Tim and Alex enjoyed climbing the rocks, and I was thrilled to be walking with a non-pregnant body.

We also took my parents and Alex to the Charlotte Motor Speedway Summer Shootout, a 10 week event during the summer with amateur races and fun events like lawn mower, power wheel, and school bus racing. We had been wanting to go all summer, but several weeks were rained out, then I was just too pregnant!

 The first 1500 spectators were given free Twinkies in honor of the Twinkie’s comeback that week. Alex thought they were wonderful! |

We had lots of fun, but were so ready for Spencer and Alex to be under one roof!
