Alas, Alex is back!!

Thank you to those or you who have not given up on the Dampeer blog!! Mommy has been hibernating over the cold winter and has decided to finally get back in the swing of things especially now that the weather is gorgeous!
So what has our big boy been up to over the last few months???...

Hitting the slopes with Daddy! Daddy, I mean Alex, really enjoyed our very own sledding hill this winter!



Attending his first performance to see Elmo LIVE!! To all parents: do not try this at home, haha. Alex had a blast and so did the million and one other kiddies screaming for Elmo.



Getting ready for the Winter Olympics in 2022:



Playing dress up (and liking it) with his good bud Cami Kolzow:



Transferring to a big boy bed in January:



Just kidding, that was mom and dad's bed, here's his toddler bed. For the record, he did a great job with the transition...only two sticker books were found empty after a sleepless nap one day. I guess there were a few (too many) nights we found him "taking care of the laundry" or you could say pantless!



Yes, he was pantless for a reason. He was in the middle of potty training. We can actually say he has officially been potty trained...and here's his sticker board to prove it! So folks, this is really where mommy and daddy has been over the last few months...potty training :)



Alex turned 2.5 on February 28, 2010.

A few stats: 25 pounds; 33 inches tall; Eyes have turned hazel; Favorite food are still tomatoes; Likes to sing; Counts, knows his alphabet, shapes, colors; Loves trains, planes, boats, animals including Sophee most of the time, Wonder Pets, and Dora; Helps around the house; Likes to grocery shop and play sports of any kind. I'm sure it is obvious, we are very proud of him and have really enjoyed seeing him grow into a big boy over the last several months!!



Attended his first ND Basketball game. He had a ball (literally) even though it wasn't a Michigan State Basketball game!!



Mr. T, or should I say Mr. A for a day (crazy hair day) at school in March:



I can't forget to mention that Alex has also been getting ready to be a BIG BROTHER in September!!
Mom is 11 weeks preggie with TWINS in this photo but as of today (4/1/10), she is 14 weeks preggie. No, this is not an April Fools joke...except for the part about twins :)
