Yummy Ice Cream

This was Alex's first time eating an ice cream cone all by himself. He tends to be more interested in the cone than the ice cream, so that's where he started. He bit the bottome of the cone first, and as you can see, once the ice cream was almost gone, the cone was gone too.

....what more could a kid want???

Some Random Cute Pics

Sleepy at the store.

Alex certainly knows how to enjoy a cupcake!

Cool firefighter jammies.

Easter

Ooops, posted these ones backwards. But here is egg coloring and Easter basket-ing.

Venice #3

It seems like every quick snapshot that we took throughout Venice could have been printed into a post card. Here are just a few of my favorites, and 1 family pic.

Venice #2

Columns of San Marco and San Teodoro

Rialto Bridge

Feeding birds in the Royal Gardens

Gondola Parking

The Campanile. You can go up inside this tower and see amazing views of the city.

Venice #1

St. Mark's Basilica in Piazza San Marco, under construction.
A beautiful gondola.

Making ugly faces.

One of the narrow "roads" in Venice.

A Few Fun Pics from Feb and Mar

This is from a super fun kid's play place called Happyland. As you can see, the adults tend to have even more fun than the kids. Here, some of the guys built giant blocks up around Alex.

Building with blocks in his Wall-E jammies.

Asleep in the car.

A GIANT cabbage!

Snowman, Suds and Santa

Here we are with our Snowman that we made in January.

Tried to get a pic with the dogs, but Hailey wouldn't stay. She just started doing the Booty Dance. Typical Hailey.

This is what happens when you let your hubby do the laundry :) He used waaayyy too much soap.

As you can see, Alex did not enjoy his visit with Santa. The worst "Santa Helper" ever, BTW. Not the guy, just the costume. So not convincing.

Christmas Hats and Coconuts

These pics are all from January. I just love the Santa hat pics wiht the dogs and nakey Alex.

The coconut pics are just random. Jr came home one day with a coconut because he wanted to open it with Alex. We all tasted it. Coconut water is GROSS! Not refreshing like it looks when the peeps on Survivor drink it. As you can see by his face, Alex didn't enjoy it either.

And even more pics.

Alex in his Cozy Coupe car on Christmas morning. We couldn't get that darn thing together, so he received it partially assembled. Didn't matter to him though!

Our yard covered in snow in January.

Playing in the snow with Mommy...

...and he did not enjoy it.

Fat lip #2 for Alex. This one is from falling off of the foot stool while looking out the window.
