It's getting hot in here..

Sorry I had to do that for my own amusement. Summer has come to Bay City, MI!!! We have chosen to celebrate by setting up the baby pool, water table, bubble makers, and sprinkler... and a host of other outdoor fun things... Alex has chosen to celebrate by ignoring them for the most part and running all around the yard.... back and forth from deck to front porch climbing steps and so on... Hey atleast he likes playing outside! I think I will be rocking a sweet tan this summer... or as much of a tan as someone can get in SPF30! Oooh and big news the government paided up by way of 1st time homebuyers tax credit and we will be camper shopping soon and paying for our Travel trailer in good old fashioned cash!!!!! I can't hardly wait!


In Alex milestone news we have some exciting additions... Alex can eat with a fork, climb things (like my ottomen) and is a flirt he loves the ladies! He also has decided that sitting on the yards couch watching Nick jr. might not be the worst way to spend a half hour... but still by far prefers books and his teddy bear!

ooops

So I was stalking my sissy's blog today and realized I haven't posted in ages... SORRY;) I have been sooo busy. Alex is literally growing by leaps and bounds... and I may be a little biased but he is getting cuter and more fun everyday! He's an absolute angel! So what's new? Plenty, we had our 1 yr well check and my kid pretty much rocks... 23lbs 13oz ( 90%) 33" ( off growth chart) and his head was in the 90% as well. He's a gaint learning developing machine. In fact the Dr mention that she never worries about Alex because Josh and I are doing so well with him! So we are rock star parents;0) Now if we could kick the pacy and bottles we'd have the ideal toddler. Yes I said it toddler... alas I no longer have a baby anymore. As much as this undeniable fact causes me to twitch a little everytime I think about it... I also am proud of how far we have come as a family.
