How the time flies by

As I'm preparing to throw Alex's 1st birthday bash, I think of all the great memories he's given me these past 11 months, and I get sad that the time has flown by and that I still don't have my pre-baby body back. HA! I don't think my abs will ever be as taut so I'm just moving on thankful that the rest of my body is intact. :-)

We had a great time in Houston this past weekend with Grandpa & Grandma, and I'm learning everyday that Alex is just as much of a ham and attention hog as his mama. He's a very happy baby and would rather be making friends with other small children than playing in his Gymboree class. He is however, teething again, but this time with molars. AHHH! We thought we were done with that when his 8th tooth came in last month, but we were wrong. He is Mr. Cranky Pants right now but he's still laughing every chance he gets and trying to chase Bubba around the room.


Alex at 5 months on the way to get baptized when his first 2 teeth had just come in...you can see them in that picture.
