Now there's no reason for the baby gate. One day shy of 2 years and 3 months old, he learned how to climb over the baby gate.


"shy boy" is saying L, M, N, O

Updates

Wow...Alex is growing so quickly. He's like a little parrot. I'm going to have to get video of his ABC's but when he knows I'm taping he gets shy...if you can imagine. When he says L, M, N, O, P he rolls his tongue around and then says P.

We played outside almost the whole day yesterday, while Daddy cleaned up the servitude. I'll get pictures later because I'm supposed to be doing homework right now.
Click here for all of yesterday's pictures.
Here are some teaser pictures from yesterday's sandbox and bike adventures.





This is how Alex puts on his hat if Mommy doesn't do it quickly enough.








Note: proper placement for safety helmet!

My crazy boy

Here he is watching Toy Story for the first time. We think he's saying "To Infinity and Beyond".

A sick boy

Last year around this time Alex got Roseola. The reason I know this is because last year at this time we had just moved in to Grandma's and he was sick around the beginning of that. This year, now, he has a sinus infection. Last Monday I missed work because he was up all night coughing and I wanted an appointment so I needed to be available the whole day. The doctor gave Alex an antibiotic with Sulfa (which my mom and I are both allergic to). The doctor wavered about the decision because of our allergies but she decided to try it because it was the best antibiotic for the problem. We had no problems all week. Fast forward to Saturday and he starts with a fever. Then Sunday he gets some spots on his back. He didn't eat much this weekend and he was very whiny and clingy. He also complained of "poo poo, bo bo" and then he had a massive poo diaper. Patrick is taking off tomorrow because Alex has a fever and he needs to be checked to see if the rash is an allergy to the medicine.

At least poor Alex is off of the breathing treatments and codeine cough syrup. Poor little man.

Hopefully this video uploads problem-free.

Sit

I was on the couch while Alex was playing with his train table. He took a pillow from the couch, put it on the floor next to the train table, walked over and grabbed my hand, pulled me from the couch, pointed to the pillow and told me to "Sit".

I wonder where he gets that from. He's getting such a little personality now. He's like a parrot, repeating everything....or trying. Daddy's trying to teach him to say homeslice, it doesn't really sound like that at all but he thinks it's cute. He does say cheeseball.

Milk sounds like muck, it's so cute!
