Baby Stroller

We went to a friend's house this weekend and Alex found their little girl's baby doll stroller. He pushed it around all day and when he wasn't pushing it, he was riding in it!

More curls

Curls?

I picked up Alex from school yesterday and was very surprised...my little boy had curls surrounding his head. The longer hair on the sides and back of his head had curled in the humid weather. I was shocked! I tried to get pictures of it and they aren't very good, but you can see some of them.

I recently put together a fire truck one of Bill's friends gave Alex for his birthday (last July). It took me a while because Alex didn't want to wait for the wheels to go on. He climbed in as soon as I took the shell of the truck out. He has yet to figure out how to go forward on little bikes...he only gear is reverse at this point in time.

What a fun weekend!

Alex and I went to visit Grammie and Paw Paw this weekend in Houston. We had a lot of fun!

The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo has started and Alex insisted on wearing Paw Paw's old cowboy hat to fit in. He was pretty cute running around the conference table at the office. He knew he looked good and was putting on an act for us...which we loved.

Saturday morning Grammie, Alex and I particiapted in the Strides 4 Stroke 5k at Rice University. I started with the runners and ran just under two miles when I saw Grammie and Alex. I ran off course to join them for the rest of the walk. Alex did a wonderful job and enjoyed pointing out and listening to birds and watching the world go by. The last half mile of the walk he was pretty entertained by the stroller canopy. I pulled it down in front of him because it was a pretty chilly and windy morning and I was trying to block some of the wind. He thought it was pretty funny to press his face against the plastic window as we passed people. I got a short video of this when he did this on the way back from the park that afternoon. (I will try to download it.)

Later that day, we went to the park. It was too pretty not to be outside. When Alex wasn't swinging, he was running up and down the hill. Who hasn't spent hours running up and down the hill at Godwin Park? He stopped long enough to pick a flower for Grammie but kept on going. Alex was go, go, go! He was so spent, he even took an extra 30 minute nap that afternoon.

Alex is such a sweet boy right now. He would run up to Paw Paw and Grammie with his arms open for a hug and a kiss. He couldn't get enough of them! I also had a great time with them. This was a much overdue trip to Houston!! (Sorry, for some reason I didn't get any pictures of Alex with Paw Paw.)
