Alex - 13 months

Well this month Alex became a full fledged crawler - FINALLY! :) He still loves to walk (not independently yet) more than he crawls but at least he is doing both from time to time.

Alex hard at work. He loves to sit at my task and throw everything onto the floor.


Look at this face!!!

Pete's Sears Tower. Sometimes I wonder who the kid is?!?! :)

Alex in his FBI uniform!!

It is starting to get hard to change him. You put him on his back and before you can turn to get the diaper he has flipped around - ahhhh!



Alex in one of his Birthday outfits! Thanks Auntie Cheryl!

Lately Trent has been getting in touch with his feminine side! That or maybe he just idolizes his big sister!!

And will do anything she tells him to do.

At the beginning of August my parents made a trip to Atlanta to see all of the grand kids! It was nice to spend some time with them.

Alex had the most fun of all. He definitely benefited from my mom being here. After she left he was better about picking things off the floor from a standing position, pulling himself up, and he was more confident in his cruising. Thanks Mom - want to move to Atlanta?!?!


Pete's Dad and Renee came for a visit a week later. It was nice to have all the family around. We took a trip to the Aquarium one afternoon. Alex was definitely more interested in the fish than last time he went.



We went out to dinner one night and thought we'd see how he reacts to a lemon - he kind of liked it! :)

Some fun time in the pool with Grandpa Mikos and NeNe.


See his two teeth!



Mr Serious!


Alex is getting really good at sharing (as long as you give it back to him after he shares)! :)

Check out this video of him in the pool - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6pzzZOv3cg
