Where did all that time go?!?!

 Umm my baby is 1!!! What happened! He seriously grew up too fast. Here is his first year in pictures:



Some facts about Alex:
  • He HATES bread, like it makes him gag he hates it so much.
  • He loves fruit, mainly watermelon and bananas.
  • Outside is the best place in the world. 
  • He loves driving the little tikes cars.
  • Anything with wheels are great!
  • He is starting to climb on, in, around, over, and onto EVERYTHING!
  • He is sleeping a LOT better, but on days he doesn't he just sleeps in bed with one of us.
  • He loves going to the playground. Climbing to the top is his favorite. Slides and swings are just an added bonus.
  • Being in Utah has helped a ton with him loving other people to hold him. Grandma's and Grandpa's are the best.
  • He is curious about everything. He likes to turn things over and see what is underneath and how it works.
  • If the Fridge is open he will make sure it gets closed FAST, even if you are in it. This also goes along with any door or cabinet.
  • He puts everything in the garbage can. Everything.
  • He is a PRO at the stairs. Up and Down.
  • His new favorite snack is fruit loops. 
  • Anything electronic he HAS to have. And hardly ever gets.
  • He seriously makes us laugh out loud at least once a day!
  • If you give him a treat he will be your best buddy for life, just ask Aunt Bailee and Uncle Derek.
  • He loves to run round and round the trampoline.
  • Animals are great! He loves dogs and horses. And they don't scare him one bit.
  • He is starting to play with others. And by playing I mean taking turns stealing eachothers toys and snacks. 
And those are just the ones I can think of right now. Alex sure is a blessing in our lives. We are so glad he is ours! He is growing up so fast, but we are loving all of it. Happy Birthday Alex! We love you!
