A small glimpse into the lives of the smaller McCulloughs. While Alex and Bo are the primary focus in the video, you can also see Bugsy in the background, ignoring both of them.
There’s a lot of cuteness in this video…enjoy!

As I’ve mentioned, we joined Gymboree last month. For the uninitiated, Gymboree “Play & Music” is basically a giant romper room. They have weekly “classes” which is more-or-less directed playtime (I suspect it becomes more directed as the kids get older). In addition to the weekly classes, we can also go to “open gym” which is basically a way to kill some time in an air-conditioned room where Alex can run around and tire herself out. Here are some of the highlights from the past few weeks:
Walking on the net for the first time. And, yes, that’s the Swedish Chef on her shirt. (May 28th)
Her continued love affair with bubbles. Note the one on the top of her head. (May 28th)
Pensive Alex. (June 4th)
Open Gym time with Grandpa. (June 7th)
It’s great. To be. A Michigan Wolverine. (June 11th)
Ha! My ball! (June 21st)
Two weeks ago, we went out to a restaurant with tablecloths. (We’d forgotten it was such a ‘fancy’ place. We hadn’t been since before Alexandra was born.) At the end of the meal, Alex made up her own game, as you can see below.
Also, we posted all the pictures from last month’s photo shoot on Shutterfly. You should be able to order prints directly or you can just let us know which ones you’d like (they now have numbers, which makes it way easier than giving timecodes).

Enjoy the video!
As you know, Ian is currently between consulting gigs. Which means we’ve essentially had a family staycation for the past four weeks. We’ve been having lots of fun with our (not so little anymore!) Alexandra. With many pictures to share, I’ll try to post more often but not overwhelm you all with too much cuteness at once.
We’re a little scared that she did this without prompting. (At Jack’s with Grandpa, May 15th)
Swim class with Mommy! (May 18th)
Makers Fair with Daddy. (May 18th)
The instant when Alex completely loses it upon seeing Jason in the giant cardboard robot suit. (May 18th)
Cardboard fingers are fun…and tasty! (May 19th)
Tunnel Day at Gymboree. (May 24th)
Now YOU pat the bunny! (At the humane society, May 26th)
As you know, Alex took her first step a few weeks ago. Yesterday, she progressed to actual walking…we were at Gymboree and she was following the bubbles. (She loves bubbles *almost* as much as she loves dogs.) Ian was able to capture her new skillz on video today:
