Oh Alex...

The other day I had gone in to use the bathroom and when I came out this is what I found.

I have no idea how he got in without killing himself! The funniest part is that he is still playing his "video game". It's funny to watch him get jealous of Zach's thing's, I have tried to explain to him that he use to use these things when he was Zach's age, but he just looks at me like I am crazy.

6 Months!

I can't believe Zach is 6 months old already (actually he is now closer to 7 months!) here is one of his 6 month pictures. I liked this one because he is blowing raspberries which he does about 80% of the time.

Still Here!

Hi,
Yes we are still in the land of the living time just keeps slipping away from me. The boys are doing great! On Father's Day I told Alex to go tell Shawn happy Father's Day and to tell him that he loved him. Alex ran off down the hall and into our bedroom pretty soon Shawn came out and said "I was just told 'Happy Birthday, I really like you!' " I had to laugh I the message got a little lost in translation.

Scrapbook

I have been dabbling in digital scrapbooking and finally figured out how to get it to post on my blog so here you go, this is one of the last pages I did.

Binkies...

So for those of you who don't know, Alex was attached to his "binkie". We finally broke him of this habit last summer/fall. So that when the baby came, if he took a binkie, Alex wouldn't be jealous. We only had a two instances early on where Alex showed any interest in Zach's binkies (the one time I caught him putting it in his mouth.) So I had pretty much forgotten any concerns I had about Alex wanting Zach's binkie, he is concerned if Zach spits it out that he has to have it right back but that is about it. (Zach hasn't been as binkie dependent.) Out of the blue a few days ago Alex said that he "needed a binkie too!" I just laughed it off, but he asked again. So to humor him I got out one of the different binkies that we didn't use for Zach and gave it too Alex. He put it right in his mouth and said "thank you mommy" and walked off. About five minutes later he was back and handing me the binkie telling me "All done!". I thought, "OK whatever" It has happened several more times since then and I can't decide if he is doing it out of jealousy or if his molars are bothering him. (He had complained about his teeth hurting). So I figure I will humor him a little longer and see where it goes.
