Things about Alex

A few funny things about Alex:

I bought him a new yellow foam mat to lay his head on in the bathtub. He LOVES it! He plays with it constantly. He has also gotten to where he lays on his belly in the bathtub and he gets on the foam mat likes he's knee boarding on it. It's hilarious!

He has started saying "uh oh" after someone else says it. He says the real high "uh" and then the lower "oh." He makes me laugh all the time!

Last night we heard some light pounding coming from his room. It was probably around 9pm. I went in and looked at him and he was asleep with his body twisted sideways and both feet propped up between the slats in his baby bed.

He has really started copying things you do. If I stretch and yawn and make lots of noise while doing it-he does it too...or at least tries to


I took a day off of school today and took him to the library. We've been before but we haven't really got to check books out and look around. They have a section at the Hoover Library with tables of puzzles and games where you push the balls over the metal pieces that are all intertwined. Does that make sense? You see them in dr's offices a lot. Anyway he loved it! They also had puppets of all kinds of animals-crabs, centipedes, raccoons, dogs, cats, dolphins, etc. There was another little girl about 4 and a little boy almost two there also playing with the puppets. The girl had the crab and Alex took it from her. I said "Alex, she was playing with that." The little girl said "it's ok...he's cute. He can take it from me." I thought that was hilarious!!! The picture below is of him playing on the computer having an Arthur book read to him. It was really neat. He mostly liked playing with the mouse and the keypad. Guess he's seen his mom and dad do enough with computers:) After we left the library we went to Chick fil a. He ate a 4 pc nugget meal with a fruit cup. The boy lives to eat! Then we went to play in the play area. He had the best time and didn't even climb and go down the slide. He just wanted to play with all the stuff that turned and flipped. He also likes playing with mirrors-kind of like peek a boo. He could have stayed there and the library all day I think.
