Fro-Yo

Alex was awesome at swim lessons today. He jumped in, both feet, fully committed. He popped up with a smile on his face and tread water for a few seconds. He swam to Ms. Tori with his head underwater and kicked, kicked, kicked. He was enjoying his new found skill so much that while waiting for his turn on the steps he had to be told not to put his head under because the teacher wasn't there with him... what a change from last week when he still strained to keep his face dry! I am so proud of him. My awesome little boy has decided he loves the water.

To celebrate we got frozen yogurt! Mmm! Alex even drank the melty part... soo cute. (You pay by the ounce and there's only 1 size cup.) He got cookies and cream, I got boysenberry. Such a treat to enjoy this mild evening with my boy and some fro-yo.

Dinner with my Boys

We took advantage at Houlihan's Wednesday special. Alex was in a particularly good mood. (The corny dog and ice cream didn't hurt.)

Puzzle Chair

Alex and Grandpa were playing with the puzzle chair when Grandpa decided to build Alex into it! They are very silly. When Grandpa held up the last piece and told Alex he needed to put it in his mouth to lock the chair together... Alex told him "no, we don't put chairs in our mouth". He is already making life rules!

Rule #1 - no chairs in mouths.

How was your day?

Yesterday, as we pulled into the driveway, Alex asked me "So, Mommy, what did you do at work today?"
 
It was SO stinkin' adorable.  It's the question we ask him all the time, only about school.  So I told him that I had a very important conference call (a phone call with more than 2 people on at once), that I ordered 980 boxes for the warehouse, and helped customers buy things.  He listened very politely the whole time, as we made our way into the house and put our things in their places, then responded with an "oh, ok".  Then he was off playing with his Legos. 
 
My little boy is growing up so fast, he amazes me all the time!

Bush. Bush. Tree.

Big tree small tree.

Driving around the other day Alex said "Mommy, if we were bushes, I would be a little bush, and you would be a medium bush, and Daddy...
Daddy would be a TREE!"
