this afternoon Alexander insisted we go outside so he could do a little cleaning up on the deck.
little man on the go
today grandma and grandpa took Alexander to the park in his cool tricycle!
hospice du rhone 2011
we're back in El Paso de Robles for the 19th Annual Hospice du Rhone Celebration!!! This time, uncle Matt and aunt JeeHee are joining us and uncle Lawrence. Daddy's wristband let's everyone know he means serious business when we go winetasting (good thing the uncles and mommy have one too!). Alexander decided to rest up before getting ready to play with aunt JeeHee and Mommy while the boys go to the tasting event.
missing silver
in what can only be a memorial for our missing friend Silver, Alexander laid out his buddies today on the floor.

alexander's most recent artistic endeavor. (I'll post more Easter photos soon)
the latest in bath fashion!
by himself
we've been working on sleep the last few weeks. working hard. his patterns got messed up around the beginning of the year and then we bounced back and forth between two naps and one. then he stopped sleeping normally at night. so we've been working hard to get him comfortable at night with sleeping by himself. it's been tough, uncomfortable and not exactly the most restful sleep for mom and dad.
however. I think we're starting to reap the benefits.
this is what it looks like when a little boy falls asleep in his crib by himself.
by. himself.
feel like we might have turned a corner here.
tuckered
daddy wore me out at the park!
the adventure continues…

construction at the park
today we went to the park where they had live entertainment! construction! between exploring the grass and watching the trucks Alexander had a great time!
story time!
Today, Targets everywhere were doing a Dr. Seuss story time. We took Alexander and he had a pretty awesome time! Thanks Abuelita for telling us about this!
the alphabet
a fan of the company leap frog for a long time, I was pretty excited when Alexander received Scout as a birthday (correction, Christmas) gift last year. a talking dog that says your name, sings songs with your name and knows your favorite stuff? how cool is that? so I was pretty darn excited to see they made magnetic letters (which we planned on buying) that are better then normal - they talk! plug one into Scout's dog house and he tells you the sound it makes!
Alexander loves it and is already driving me crazy with the alphabet song it plays - over and over again!
big boy shoes
today we got Alexander some regular shoes with a regular sole for when he wants to walk in adverse weather conditions; since he always wants to walk! you can see how many people it takes to get them on a tired little boy!
and these are the shoes he got!
no touchscreen?
big book
my own meal
tonight we went out to dinner an Alexander got his first kids meal! cheese ravioli with red sauce.
