1. Alex has a contagious laugh. I can't help but laugh when I hear him laugh. My heart sings when I hear it.
2. He loves to explore and find out how things around him work. He is always taking in so much with his senses. He is absolutely fearless on the playground.
3. I love how he helps me around the house. His favorite job is to "help" unload the dishwasher, so fast that I can barely keep up! I love how he says, "da doo" (thank you) as he hands me each dish.
4. I love how affectionate he is. He'll even hug the cats (actually by leaning on them and saying "mmmmmmm". He'll even give hugs to the cats in his books.
5. I love how Alex is always ready to go bye-bye (on an errand). He'll grab his shoes, head to the door, and keep saying "bye bye" over and over until you go.
6. I love how Alex and his Daddy play together when Alex is taking a bath. Daddy gets Alex all excited, and Alex drenches the room by splashing the water with his hands, toys and feet.
7. I love his MAGIC EYES. His eyes change color, depending on the lighting. They always light up with he is happy or excited. He also has the most beautiful long eyelashes that he inherited from his Daddy.
8. I love his independent spirit. He will sit quietly and read by himself, or race around the kitchen island with his shopping cart, then come give me a hug, then he's right back at it. It is a joy to see his personality develop.
9. I love how he says Momma all the time. He's sometimes a bit of a Momma's Boy, but it makes me feel wanted and appreciated.
10. I love how he teaches me about patience, unconditional love, enthusiasm, and the love of life every single day. I'm grateful for every moment I have with him. He's growing up so fast, which is hard on a Momma's heart, but I am so proud of him.

Erika, that is so, so sweet. Alex is a sweet little guy and so lucky to have such a wonderful mom & dad. I totally love the picture, especially since it was taken in my backyard! :) Give him a big hug from Aunt Heidi. :)
He does have magic eyes and what a great picture!
This is a beautiful post. I love it. He does remind me so much of his daddy. Always, thinking and trying to figure things out. Sweetness of spirit. Yes, he is also a "stacker" I have pictures
to prove it. I will have to post the ones taken at your restaurant (Mel's)? of him stacking the butter cups. Love him so much.
