What a great Christmas we had! So many fun activities for Evan and I... Mommy took us to see Santa with our cousins. I was excited to see him but I didn't want to sit on his lap so I just waved and said hi to him. Afterwards we ate at Ed Debevic's where they gave me this cool hat to wear. Evan got to wear one too... Mommy took me to the museum to see pretty Christmas trees from around the world. Then we went to tea at the Peninsula with Yaiyai and my Theas and cousins. On Christmas Eve we hung our stockings for Santa. Here we are by the tree on Christmas Eve. We must have been very good this year because Santa left us a fun slide under the Christmas tree! We had fun opening all the great presents! I liked trying on my new clothes... and Evan liked playing with his new truck. I got new boots and so did Mommy. We were so excited that we put them on right away over our pjs. Here we are in our new boots! I liked wearing my reindeer antlers... but Evan didn't like to wear his! ...

October has flown by. My Grammie was with us for most of the month helping Mommy take care of me and baby. I had so much fun with Grammie because she does fun things with me like going to pick out pumpkins... and going to the zoo to see the goats. I had my first hair cut and got to sit in a fancy fire car. I'm such a good climber that I don't have to sleep in a crib anymore. I have my very own big girl toddler bed. It's great. I can run around the room and play instead of napping! For Halloween I was a big bear... and Evan was a little bear... and we all went trick or treating with our friends. Evan is getting so big. Here he is... and here he is in his swing making goofy faces... and in bed watching his Bears mobile. I'm a very helpful big sister and love to give Evan his pacifier. That's enough blogging for now. Stay tuned... Love to all, -Alex

He's here! I am finally a big sister to my baby brother Evan! Evan was born on 9/22/09 at 10:44am. He weighed 7 lbs. 6 oz and was 18.5" long. He is so sweet. He mostly sleeps... And sometimes cries. And he likes to make grouchy faces like this... Here he is with Mommy at the hospital. Here's me and Daddy with Evan. I like to help out by giving him his bottle. Sammy is taking good care of him, just like he did for me when I first got here. Meanwhile I'm pretending to be just like Mommy by pushing my baby doll in her stoller. Love to all- Al

My mommy finally took me for my first beach visit today now that summer is almost over. It was so fun. The water was cold but the sand tasted really good.

Happy summer everyone! What a busy and fun time I've been having. In early July my Mommy and Daddy took me to a petting zoo where I got to see goats, ducks and a really fat pig up close! Then we went to Disney with my Grammy and Grandpa, Aunties and Uncles and my cousins. And of course Mickey was there. I had fun playing in the pool at the resort and going on all the rides. Here I am with Grammy and Grandpa and my cousins. When I got back there was a big birthday party for Papou where I played with my other cousins... and played in the sandbox... and had a cupcake... Every week my Mommy takes me to Gymboree class where I get to climb, slide and run around. Last week my Grammy came to visit and we played and went to the zoo. Mommy and I are busy getting ready for my baby brother, whatever that is. She says he'll be here in a few weeks. Love to all, Alex

I hope everyone is having a good summer so far. I sure am! Here are some of the fun things I've been doing this month... Walking- Having picnics- Texting- Reading books- Being cute- Hope everyone is well. Love to all! -Alex
