Wow- so it's already November! I can't believe I haven't posted since September. I guess that goes to show how busy life gets with Alex :)

So, I thought I would start with Halloween: Alex was a fuzzy yellow chick for the night,
as you can see here. He willingly put on the gear and really got into going door to door. We worked on saying "trick or treat" all day. Well, his version was more like "t-t-t",
but still.....so when I prompted him at the door, he just smiled, not saying a peep (better luck next year). Actually, I think he liked the knocking part more than getting the candy!



The beginning of November brought equal excitement with Alex being baptized. He was so dapper in his little white tux with tails! All he needed was a white top hat to complete the outfit. Alex was very good during the ceremony- our favorite part was when standing in front of the parish, the Priest said something to the affect of having Christ watch over Alex, and at that moment, Alex points up toward the ceiling, calling out. Honestly, he is just too much! Just above is a family shot of Alex with his mommy, daddy, and grandparents. The other below is one of his godparents- Cousin Melissa & Uncle Matt.



We're now coming up on Thanksgiving, with Christmas closely following behind....hard to believe. So, we are working on a list for Santa and looking forward to all the excitement. I also included some extra pics for everyone to see what a big boy Alex is becoming.

Hope all is well with everyone-
love,
