So Much Change

While my mom and Granny were here we did a 4 generation picture. I really love the way they turned out!


Alexander really enjoyed shopping and picking out his gift from Tony, Penny and Morgan at Walmart. Thanks!

This picture is important because of what is NOT in it! Can you Guess??


BLANKET! We told Alexander when he turned 3 his blanket was going bye-bye! So while Mia was here she helped us get rid of it. He only asked for it a couple of time since we took it away. Now he never ask! We are having a little trouble with bed time but I know with patiences he we will get there.

We have entered a new stage with Alexander....lying! He came down stair the other day with brown all over his face and hands and I asked what was all over him.....his reply "nofing" we later discovered it was chocolate.

We have also had some unexpected changes happen recently. If all of you could keep us in your prayers for direction and healing. We love you all!

31 years young!

Jeremy turned 31 on Friday! Wow! It is hard to believe but the first birthday I spent with Jeremy is his 21st. Seems like not that long ago we celebrated that birthday at Nana's house. Now here we are 10 years later and I love him more than I could have ever dreamed I would. I am so blessed to have him as my husband. It is wonderful to have him by my side no matter what I am going through. Thank you so much for being there and supporting me through all this craziness lately....I feel like I am the one who got the presents for your birthday! I love you!

Jeremy opening his gifts for me and Alexander. Alexander was so cute, Jer pulled out his red sox blanket and Alexander says "Wait Daddy there are cups too!" I love it!


We had our neighbors over on Friday night for some wings and fries (homemade, yummy)! We played games and I got Jer some of his favorite dessert, tiramisu....it was a blast.

At school on Friday we have Large Motor and all of the classes combine in the gym for a fun game. We played with the parachute on Friday it was alot of fun! Since Alexander loves this kind of stuff so much we are going to sign him up for tumbling classes at the YMCA.

I love this picture of Alexander just chilling in my chair watching TV.

Alexander ABC and Sounds

This is Alexander going through his ABC's and making their sounds.

More Birthdays

We went and got some really good food for Jeremy birthday while mom and granny were here.


We also had Alexander's 3 year shots done. I love the monster truck one!



On granny and mom's last day we went to see Alexander's and my school and show them around. We had a great time having them here.

Special Guest at the Party

We were so excited to have Grandma at Alexander's party. Her and Grandpa got Alexander this polar express train that he went crazy about!



Granny was also able to make it up from Florida. Her and Pop got Alexander this great Gordon train. We love trains!

My BIG 3 year old!



Alexander had his 3 year check up on Friday. He did a great job doing all the tricks the doctor asked him to. Like standing on one foot, counting to 10, colors and his name. He is 40 inches tall and 39 pounds, the 97th percentile for both. He had to get his flu booster which made it not so much fun, but granny took us for some ice cream afterwards. It is hard to believe I am the mother of a 3 year old.

Birthday Party at Chuck E Cheese

The table and cake!



Game time! Alexander had 3 friends come to his party: Brileigh, Burke and Aiden. It was perfect!

Pizza and Cake!

It was a perfect party....Alexander and his friends had a blast at Chuck E Cheese!

School party

On Alexander's actually birthday he had cupcakes at his school. Here he is asking the blessing over his snack.


His hair is flippie because of the way he slept during his nap.

His new class......he is now in yellow class. He loves being in yellow but has been pushing the limits with me. I am hoping it does not take long and he will balance out and be ok with me being teacher at school and mommy at home.

The birthday parties begin...

Alexander's Birthday began while Mia and Papi where here. We went to Monkey Business which is one of Alexander's favorite places. It was alot of fun.

Then that evening we had a party at the house. Alexander got a cookie cake and Mia put a monster truck on it for him.....that was great for him.

Waiting for his present.....


WOW.....at train table! Thanks Mia and Papi!

Alexander sledding

More Sledding

We sent Alexander down the hill alone to ride over a bump....he popped up and rolled off. It was funny, he got up smiling and loving it. I will post the video of it, which he wants to watch over and over again.

Jer and I had to work some this week so Alexander got to spend so fun time with Mia and Papi. They took him to Chuck E Cheese, Chick Fil A and Mc Donald's, all of his favorites.

Sledding

We took Mia and Papi sledding. I think Alexander had forgot how much fun it was to go. He loved it!



Mia's turn.


Me and Alexander racing.

Papi doing a little snow boarding.

It was a blast going sledding, but man it was COLD!

Chistmas Dinner

This was our wonderful Christmas Dinner, on my NEW Christmas dishes.


Alexander and Mia made a snow man.

Alexander, Mia and I made a gingerbread house. I think Alexander had a couple of pieces of candy.

White Christmas

We enjoyed a beautiful white Christmas. It actually snowed ALL day long....we got over 8 inches.



The shoveling team!

Dixie and Libby even enjoyed playing in it.

This was Alexander enjoying his Gator from Mia and Papi. I wish he could have rode it more, it was really cold, icy and windy.
