Okay, so it's been a while, and I have no excuse this time (unless laziness counts). Alexander is growing visibly, and has added a few new skills to his repertoire (which was previously limited to crying and... er, crying loudly).
One of these is lifting his head, and taking a good look around. It may not sound like much (sadly I have no photo of this), but it's heartwarming to see, and quite funny. He doesn't have full control of his neck yet, so the movements are not exactly coordinated, but there are times when he seems to be following either me or my wife when we're looking at him.
And of course, there are the facial expressions - he has quite a collection.
We managed to take him out once about a week and a half ago; there's a park right next to our apartment. This event had to meet board approval (the wife) - Korean culture dictates that newborns must stay home for exactly 3 weeks before leaving the confines of their house (this conveniently excludes hospital visits). All being said and done, however, he managed to sleep through the entire outing, which was probably for the best.
We tried to do the same again a couple of days later, but being awake this time, he didn't take kindly to the pram (stroller), loudly voicing his disapproval.
