Alexander's First Christmas!























































This was Alexander's first Christmas and he made out like a bandit. First off, Grammy and Grandpy came on Chrismtas Eve to stay for a couple of days and brought lots and lots of presents from Santa and his Great Grandparents, Grandma and Grandpa Fisher. Santa had already stopped at their house and dropped off some toys. Grammy bought him an adorable Santa outift and he put that on right after his Christmas bath. He stayed in it until he pooped through his diaper and it had to be changed. hehe. His Aunt Mel and Aunt ChaChi bought him some new Leap Frog and Fisher Price toys that he'll love to listen to and watch for now. He also got some Elmo and Big Bird books and a cute new t-shirt that matches one daddy got. And, he got 4 stuffed animals with Planet Earth DVDs as well. They're only 22 minutes long so as he gets older I'm sure he'll love watching them and learning about monkeys, elephants, tigers, and polar bears.

Ornery Boy


This was a picture taken on Thanksgiving when Alexander got his Leap Frog activity center from his cousin Noah. Noah wasn't too sure about giving up his fun toy and I think Alexander was giving him the look of "oh ya, now it's mine hahaha". We're in trouble!

Berkshire Christmas






























Saturday we spent the evening with my family at the carousel near my hometown. It was Alexander's first time meeting a lot of his cousins and aunts and uncles and he had a great time. It was also his first time riding the carousel and seeing Santa.

I AM saying something!

Our little man turned 2 months today. We can hardly believe the time has flown by so fast. We spent the day playing with toys and listening to songs about the rainbow, colors, and numbers in both English and Spanish of course. This afternoon while playing with is Leap Frog activity center he decided he'd start telling me a story and it was so cute, I had to grab the camera.

A Day With Our Kids
















Today Ricardo, Alexander and I got to visit my best friend that lives in Fort Wayne (the other one lives in Illinois). Her and her husband have two beautiful kids, Ben and Macy, and today was the first time they met Alexander. We had a great time eating a YUMMY lunch that Teresa made, enjoying way too many of the awesome cookies she baked, and playing with our kids. Alexander was showing off his newly developed skills like; holding up his head, smiling, and laughing. And, Ben and Macy enjoyed coloring with the coloring books we took them. My friend Nicci bought Alexander some adorable clothes and Teresa and I had to utilize the pockets on his sweatshirt and the look on his face was priceless. He just looked at us like, come on mom and Aunt T...I am way too cool for this! We also took some pics of all three kids and T and I before we left. We were amazed at her hubby's photo abilities. hehe

Uh oh my shirt is wet!


Little man had his "high maintenance" shirt on the other day and it was certainly fitting...he spit up and got his shirt wet but thankfully it didn't seem to bother him. Some days are cleaner than others. hehe

Little Talker

We've tried several times to catch Alexander talking but of course we don't get to the camera in time or we're too busy listening that we don't go get it. He's really not "talking" per say but he is certainly trying to say something...we just haven't figured out what it is yet.
