The Non-Haircut

Alexander helping us clean up after the Tastefully Simple Party consisted of tasting items, mixing new concoctions and puttting the lids on and off of the containers.

Notice the ever present choo choo by his right hand.

Watching choo choos (Thomas & Friends), playing choo choos (check 'em out under the TV) and checking out the baby swing that is ready for Gabriel's arrival. Oh, and he looked super cute in his little man white t-shirt and underwear.

This is the start of the haircut that never happened. He's looking at himself for about a second in the mirror while he works on his third lollipop of this visit (the first two kept him quiet while we waited for our turn and the second during the wait while Tim got his hair cut).



After looking in the mirror for a second he decided he was "done, done, done" so Tim tried holding him. After this it got too ugly to take any more pictures. Needless to say, he will be getting a covert trim during bathtime soon and we will try again next month!

At the park...

After a nasty October, we have been enjoying the warm and sunny November weather that we've been blessed with. Of course, Blogger didn't want me to actually post these pictures in order.

Here is Alexander climbing the rock wall.

Flying the plane...facing the wrong way!

Fast asleep when we arrive at the park, thanks to the incredibly smooth ride of my 2010 Malibu rental car.

Checking out a tree.


Heading off for an exploratory mission.


Another view from the rock wall. We had a diaper leaking issue (which I can now pinpoint the source to and hope to fix this week) and since I had woken him up and changed his diaper in the car, I was NOT about to turn around and head home. By the time we got back in the car, both his pants and his seat were dry.


Checking out the tree still (see, out of order).



He was fine : )

Riding the duck.

Discovering that the best toy is actually the water fountain.

Halloween

A Knight to Remember

Here's our knight in shining armor on his third Halloween. Not a fan of the helmet.
















Fort

Alexander loves turning our living room chair into his fort. He also insist on furnishing his fort with whatever strikes his fancy. In this case, a pillow, two blankets, a balloon, the piano and the ball popper.
