40 weeks/Day 1

I'm here!! My official name is Alexander Saurav Abramson, but you can call me Alex. I was born October 5, 2007 at 6:17 pm. Unfortunately for my mom, I was a big kid--8 lbs, 6 oz and 21 inches tall. Here's what I looked like when I was 4 hours old -- click the arrow twice to play the video:



Everyone says I look just like my daddy. I'll let you be the judge! Here's a photo of my daddy circa 1972, and one of me circa 2007:



I don't know what everyone's talking about -- I'm clearly much cuter.



My hands and feet are definitely from my mom. In fact, as I came out, the first thing my Aunt Anu said was, "He has Vandana's feet!"



Here is my foot compared to my daddy's. (Mom wouldn't pose for this photo -- she says her feet are still too swollen.)



Well, what can I tell you about myself? I'm a pretty happy-go-lucky kind of guy. I enjoy drinking milk, burping, and going to parties, especially when they are thrown by my Nana and Nani in my honor:



I also enjoy hanging out with my Grandma and Grandpa and my Aunt Anu:



I like relaxing with my daddy and mommy:



Oh yeah, one more activity I really enjoy -- sleeping!! Speaking of which, I am pretty tired from the move . . .

Alex, I definitely think that you have your Mom's ears. That was the first thing that I noticed about you. You're a cutie pie. We all can't wait to meet you! Eshaan and Shiva saw your video and had the following to say:
(Eshaan): "Alex is no longer in Vanna Masi's tummy". I was in my mommy's tummy when I was a baby. I'm a big boy now."
(Shiva): "Oh my god, Awex was in Vanna Masi's tummy! When did he come out?" (Shiva has trouble pronouncing L's).
Lots of love from all of us! xoxo.
