Busy weekend

Spent most of yesterday in mom and dad's attic going through stuff to put in our garage sale next weekend. They kept Alex over night so we could go out. Going out became getting chinese food, watching a really bad movie (Lost in Translation), and falling asleep on the couch at 8:30 and to bed around 9! Sad, huh?? To top it off, on a day we both could sleep in, we were up before 7am. Oh well, it was a nice relaxing evening anyway and we really appreciate those!
Today was pretty laid back. Did some cleaning and then we made a Home Depot run. Trying to get some ideas on what to do with the yard. BBQ's hamburgers and potatoes (which Alex really liked!). It was a nice weekend all around.
Alex is still learning so many new things! Today he learned "elbow". He learned 'knee' about a week or so ago and thought that the elbow was a knee too. So, now he has it straight. He's learning some colors too. Very smart boy we have!
Back to work already tomorrow??? Ugh!

Cool bubble mower from Auntie! 

Chasing the ball 

Happy Easter!

We had a very nice Easter weekend. Did a little shopping Friday night and went out to dinner. Went on a short bike ride Saturday and brought lunch over to Grandma and Grandpa's. Got him a little Easter basket with some books and treats in it. He didn't really 'get it', but liked the plastic eggs filled with M&M's. We had a wonderful Easter dinner on Sunday with the family. Alex really liked the food (especially the cake). He got some wonderful gifts too! He loved playing outside and just ran and ran and ran!

Dinner was good! 

The helmet is a little big! 

Spring is here!

We finally don't have any snow on the ground!
This was such a beautiful weekend. We got a short bike ride in yesterday (about 5 miles) and Alex seemed to have a good time in his bike trailer. We put some toys in there for him and it kept him occupied. My butt is pretty sore and I really have to get used to being on a bike again(it's been a very long time!). But, it will be fun once we get into it.
Alex is learning more and more everyday. He knows so many words and things now...it's very neat!

I see you 

Cheese! 

15 months old!

Alex turned 15 months old on 3/31. He had his checkup today and is doing very well (despite the cold he currently has). He hasn't gained any weight (still at 31.6#) and is now 34.5 inches tall! He is going to outgrow me any day now! He is learning so many new words and is quite thoughtful about his actions. We have so much fun playing with him. I got a new bike and Wil got his tuned up. We also bought a little trailer for Alex so we could get some bike riding in this year. I think he'll really like it!
