Mom started insulin for her gestational diabetes and is doing a great job with the needles. She was a bit scared at first, but is a pro and it is only day 2. The doctor wants to make sure I don't get too big before I come out, so it is important to keep those blood sugars down! I am spending less time at St. Mary's since the doctor also recommended mom not work full time anymore. It is nice because she and I can hang out at home and craft or with cousin Nico and Tata Cathy.
Dad took mom to the home brew store this weekend to pick out the ingredients for a special beer for when I am born. It is going to be a chocolate oatmeal stout called The Alexandre Wilson. Rumor has it, a good stout can help mom with breast feeding and I think I will really like beer.

haha only you would be looking to make a beer named after your baby, love it!
Thanks for this update, Alexandre. I'm looking forward to meeting you! I might come up and hang out with you next Friday, if you'll be around. Let me know what your plans are, will you?
By the way, I love your name.
I'm your grandpa Leikam talking at you Alexandre. I hope that you pop out into this world with us pretty soon. I want to see you, hold you and come to know you. I have to add that what with that beer they have brewing for you, we might have a party. Give me a bit of lead time before you're born so that I can prepare to come on up to your house.
Peace and Love,
Grandpa Bill
I love the first person account from Alexandre Wilson. He is such smart little guy. Great word choice and perfect grammar. I look forward to meeting him.

Hello Alexandre,
I am your second cousin Maddy and I can't wait to see and play with you. We are all getting really excited for your debut. I hope your Mom is feeling well.
Oh...and my Mom wants you to tell your Mom that she wants to try some of that beer :)
