Flashback Friday!

Since I wasn't blogging when Alex was a baby, I'm going to use "Flashback Fridays" as a means to remember all the special early moments in his life. Matty's birthday last week got me started thinking about what Alex was like at Matty's age. It's amazing how two brothers can be so different in some ways, but so much the same in others! This was Alex's first Christmas, which was two days after his first birthday. As you can tell, the boxes were his favorite part!

Speaking of birthdays, here is my favorite picture of Alex eating cake (or is that eating a spoon?) This picture was taken in the Netherlands, when Alex met Super Oma for the first time. He loved the laundry bucket, and would happily play in it for hours at a time (ok, not quite hours)

And here is goofy Alex, playing on Oma's suitcase when she came to visit. It seemed like he was always laughing at this age! And another of my favorite goofy pictures, wearing the sweater than Oma made for him How fun it is to remember!
