It's the First Day of School

So yesterday was as the movers say "it's the first day of school". Alex was sorta excited he got up happily even tho it was 7:40am (mommy had a rougher time...lol), he was super excited to get to brush his teeth on his own (a new thing for the mornings because the dentist feels it is more important to brush his teeth before sleep with his imperfections), he didn't want anything to eat which is OK because they feed them breakfast in school, so i got him a cup of milk and he happily drank that put on a little TV and by then Grandma was here and off we went! Did a little bit of picture taking since daddy wasn't here to see it :O( I signed him in at school and off to his class room we went...he happily put the extra clothes in his cubby, and gave his family picture to Miss Katie. we walked him over to the rest of the class where he melted down into tears....I passed him off to miss pearl and off we went!! EEEEKKKK that was hard...but I held it together like a big girl and didn't cry...When I went back to get him he was happy to see me but asked if it was already time to go....lol...Once in the car I tried to pull out of him how his first day was....I didn't get much all he wanted to do was go home...lol

As the evening progressed I over heard him singing a cute little song..."jump up and down, turn around and touch the ground..." I told him I loved it did you learn it as school??? he shyly said yes...lol and he told me they sang the cookie jar song too...which he LOVES!!!

On the second day of school he brought cookies in with ABC sprinkles and he said everyone loved them!! he was so excited to have his new friends celebrate his birthday with him. he promised me he wasn't going to cry the second day and he didn't!!! it was truly awesome!! I got to give big hugs and kisses and walk away with pride!!! :O)

preparing for fathers day

This morning Edwin took the van for service, so Alex and I used this time for a impromp to art session to make a fathrrd day card for daddy. When we started he asked me can we make a card for Peppe too? I said sure and thats how we ended up making all the fathers day cards :o) Alex made 3 cards with circles and the rest of the cards he made to look like catipallars.

As we do everyfriday night we went to football @ the coconut creek community center. I'm not too sure when alex is going to become a little more aggresive an pull off other kids flags...Alex n Brody were paired together for the game at the end. Brody is more Alexs speed...alex was able to pull his flags :o) after their turn they sat and chatted on the floor it was very cute! Brody has always liked alex :o)

Stromboli

Today my little helper and I cleaned up the house and played on the pool. After nap Alex helped me make our dinner. He LOVES to roll the dough and put the cheese and pepperonie on the dough. The whole time it cooks and cools he complaines about how 'starving' he is. he just loves stromboli :o)

well its been a while...but I stumbled upon this tonight and got a kick out of the things I wrote almost 2 years ago snd thought I should give it some time in my day again.

today was.a fun day alex played in the sprinklers while I vaccumed out the car. He also helped me with laundry...he folded his undies the best that he could...he gave his hand at folding his t-shirts oh it was adorable lol. :o) and he put them away but he always puts them in his drawers for me...hes a great helper around the house.

Today was a fun day!!! Tonight Alex and I did some swimming in the pool...this was Alex's first time swimming at night! On the 4th of July Alex went in the pool but he just clung to me because he had a tummy ache and he was exhausted...but tonight that was all different. He was intrigued by the light...and loved going "nunder" and smiling and waving at each other...cute cute cute!!

Just another Monday!

We had a GREAT day today!!! Accident Free!!! Yay Alex! Thank goodness after yesterday where he had 3 accidents...uggg...little booger! He's truly lucky to still be alive...lol! We did the 3 day potty training back on July 17th, 18th and 19th...it really worked!!! I was shocked!!! now we are just perfecting that life long skill!


Lets see what kind of excitement did we have today?? Alex really played well with bailey today he threw his toys and bailey went and actually got them of course he did not bring them back to Alex but still Alex chased him around the house to get the toy back!!! Ahhhh my boys! Today Edwin and Hey went to a Yankees game up in Tampa. And Stephie went with me to get Alex's invites tonight. After I put him down I plan to start working on the!!! LORD willing!

Cleaning Monster

So today while i was folding a pile of laundry the size Mt Everest in my bedroom, I kept hearing the trash can open and shut. I decide to check the situation out...when I steeped out of my room I noticed Alex running into the other bathroom and grabbing 1 wipe...I followed him to see what he was going to do with that 1 wipe. Don't ask me how but Alex has spilled my smoothie I had sitting in front of my computer all over the chair and the carpet. HUGE MESS, but my little cleaning monster had decided since he made the mess he should clean it up. I'm all for teaching him his actions have reactions and he must be responsible for those. And he really tried to clean up his mess!!! Yay for Alex!!! Good job my big boy!!
