Too Busy to Blog

OMG! It has been soooo crazy around here!

The summer has just flown by. I have been so busy that I don't even have time to blog. Seriously, how bad is that? Where would we be without blogging? I don't know how they survived back in the 20th century. I don't think anyone talked to anyone else - ever. They never had email, blogging, texting, facebook - nothing. (that's so weird to even think of the 20th century, I mean, it was a whole century ago, people who were alive back then, are still around today - weird, right?)

Anyway, before I get too into my blog let me just get Sammy's cameo shot out of the way. He has been so nice to me since I got here, he just likes being around me.




In fact, lots of people like being around me. The older I get, the more I think that it's a good thing I'm here because I give these people something to do - and they love me for it. Look at this shot of my dad grinning like Cheshire cat:



And then my grandma and grandpa keep coming over just to see me. I think they live down the street because they just drive in like it's nothing, stay for a few days, then they're off to see my cousins.


Enough about other people, back to me (that's the only reason you're reading this, right? I thought so).

Check out some the new things I've been trying out. It's like I'm an adrenaline junkie or something, I just can't get enough of doing new and different activities.

I can sit in my highchair now:



And because I can do that, my parents let me eat whatever I want. No more formula-only diet for me, no way! I think I'm close to my own show on the Food Network now (then again - who isn't) it's like gourmet every day at my house - check out me eating mushy cereal that is the consistency of watery paste that I can barely swallow and get more on my bib, clothes, cheeks, hair, the counter, my hands, daddy's work clothes, mommy's hair, the floor, and Sammy.

Next I think I might try deep fried scorpions from a street vendor in Beijing.
It's not all lounging around though, I exercise too. I can roll over now - front to back and back to front. Mommy keeps trying to catch me do it on video, but I'm too smart for her. Just a little patience and she gives up, turns the video camera off, and that's when I do it. This picture is the closest anyone has gotten to catching me roll over on camera.


Oh yeah, and my new favorite hobby - swimming! Well, more like sitting in my mom's lap and letting my feet dangle in the water. But just you wait, Michael Phelps' record is going down.

Then, after swimming I always need a bath, which my mom and dad are always happy to provide. Decorum forbids me from showing anything but the following picture - after all, I am a lady.

One last picture with my favorite shirt - or my daddy's favorite shirt.

Love to all!
- Alex.
