See what daddy taught him

He taught him how to fake sleep. I don't know why or how he's on the table.



and the only reason he said, "Okays" to get off the table is because he saw the camera and he wanted to see himself on the video.

Use your words

Alex is addicted to fruit snacks. He comes in, points at the pantry, and grunts. We are trying to get him to use his words and tell us what he wants. Tonight I refused to get him anything until he told me. He climbed on top of me, hit me, whined and I kept saying, "Tell mommy what you want, use your words" etc. About 5 minutes into it, he just stopped whining and walked out of the room to go play.

the faker

Alex is climbing on top of his dresser. We have since taken the knobs off of his dresser. Today, Patrick caught him on top of the dresser. Immediately, Patrick told Alex he was in timeout, then Alex, immediately decided to fake snore. When Patrick put him down in timeout, he pretended to sleep and fake snore. It was too darn cute.

Bless You

I sneezed a big sneeze and Alex looked up at me and said, "Bess You".

some videos in the past month

Aunt Meggie took this video of Alex pretending to sleep. Too cute!


So, Alex decides that instead of making a house, he's going to use the box as a slide. Shortly after this video was filmed, he slid on his upside down train table and cut his neck pretty bad. He's fine though.



This video goes perfectly with his new Toy Story obsession.


Here is Alex, in all his glory, dancing and singing along to a segment of Yo Gabba Gabba.

Obscene or Really Offensive?

10 points if you know what movie that's from

Tonight, Alex christened me. He pooped in the tub.
GROSS WARNING....DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU GET GROSSED OUT...

I'M SERIOUS....DON'T READ

YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!


I saw him fart then he looked at his butt and a well formed stream of brown flowed out and seemed to suspend in the water. So nasty! I grabbed him out of the tub so fast, drained the water and bathed him in our tub. The tub is currently soaking in bleach water. Is it bad I wanted to take a picture of this momentous occasion?

Dora's influences

If you don't know, Dora the Explorer is Alex's new favorite show. If you've never seen Dora, you don't know what you're missing. There's a singing backpack and when it finishes its song it eats the contents of the backpack and says "Num num num num num, delicioso" (delicious in Spanish).

So, yesterday it was all too quiet in the house. I walk around looking for Alex. I find him in my bedroom, in the corner with a bag of malted milk balls. I ask him what he's doing and he says, "Num num num num num, delicioso". How can I fault the kid for using the phrase in the correct context?
