New, New, New!!

Here are the latest pictures. We are really getting settled in our new apartment now and loving it! It's so much roomier here and there's a nice backyard too. We got a turtle sandbox and had to get the colored sand to put in it. I tried to be diplomatic and got blue and pink sand, but Hannah just mixed it together, so now we have purple. Oh well, I'm sure Alex won't care which color it is if he can figure out how to get it into his mouth.

This picture looks funny, I know, but I just had to post it because of the eyes. He is trying to eat my hair I think. Just before I took the picture I heard him giggle and felt him grab a handful, so I just clicked, hoping for a good one.

Just look at the expression on his face! I think he's going to be quite a little charmer. He already is with the grown up ladies....the more women crowd around him the happier and more energetic he gets. What a ham!

Here Hannah is riding her Dora four-wheeler. She was so excited to get it out after a long winter. I'm glad I thought to charge the battery before she knew it was out. Though, it may have electrical issues because at one point she was riding it and suddenly jumped off....and it just kept going. It was quite funny actually. It kept going around in circles around the yard, until I got up and pushed the button again and it stopped. We haven't had any more episodes since then though.

Alex loves to play with his feet and especially loves to sample the tasty morsels

Here is the fabulous turtle sandbox with purple sand. Hannah buried herself up to the waist and had a blast just mixing the blue and pink sand. I put Alex's toes in the sand and he seemed to love it. Then he reached in with his hand...so that was the end of that.

This dress was so cute! I found it at TJMaxx. It had the matching baby doll dress and it was on clearance, so naturally I couldn't pass it up. Hannah just loves wearing dresses and it is hard to convince her to wear anything else. Usually only the promise of playing at the park can persuade her to wear pants or capris.

Here is our little ham. What can I say about this pose? It speaks for itself.

This picture was taken on Easter. Hannah got to help me frost the cupcakes and put on sprinkles. Hannah actually did a pretty good job until we got to the sprinkles...then she wanted to put them all on one cupcake. Surprisingly, she didn't want to eat that one.

This is my new favorite picture! I have a wallet size that I carry in my purse for bragging purposes. I am still amazed that they are both looking at the camera and smiling!

This is another new favorite picture. I just love the sweet look on Hannah's face. She loves her brother so much and is so gentle with him....most of the time.

This is the beginning of crawling. Alex gets up like this, but still hasn't figured out how to get his legs under himself...and it makes him so mad! He is really good at going backward though.

This one looks like a push up. Usually he can hold this pose for a few seconds. Maybe he's learning yoga? Isn't that the downward facing dog pose?

I did it to Hannah and so I must also do it to Alex. Yes, this is a pooping face. Apparently all that yoga helped his digestive system.

This is a picture of Kathy, Heidi and me at Heidi's wedding reception. She actually got married in October, but her husband was overseas and just got home. Since none of their family got to attend the wedding they decided to have a reception for everyone. Sadly, Heidi and her hubby are now in florida. We all miss her very much.
