• Loves chasing/playing with the "snow" in the yard - thinks it's hysterical to chase after it
• Went to Target with Mommy for a hotdog & milk dinner on Monday since Daddy had softball
• Daddy did bedtime on Wednesday
• Mrs. Bree came to sing on Thursday
• LOVES playing outside at home after school - plays with this leaf blower, helps Daddy mow the lawn, and now he loves jumping off of the little step
• Started helping Daddy water the garden and will now say "dadda gargarn blahblah" which is "let's water the garden Daddy"
• Before bed, he LOVES playing/catching ball with Mommy & Daddy - he'll run back and forth laughing & screaming
• Has been playing the Mickey Mouse Memory game - loves finding Mickey's ears
• His new favorite phases are "MY turn","I did it" or "I got it"
• Got his cast off on Friday and did EXCEPTIONALLY well - no crying or fussing. Actually helped out the assistant
• Got to keep his cast and he wanted to put it back together and at one point, even tried to put it back on
• Went to Target for a hot dog to celebrate the cast coming off - had his hot dog, went around the store in the back of the cart, & saw Mommy's friend Stacey
• After naptime, we took a BATH and cut those long nails - felt so nice for both of us!

• On Saturday, went with Daddy to babysit cousin Michael for a few hours
• After naptime at home, helped Daddy mow the lawn and clean the yard/garage
• Out to dinner at the Post Office pub and had a hamburger - was more excited in flirting with the waitresses and trying to get their attention to show them teddy grahams but LOVED Mommy's ginger ale
• Sunday morning, Daddy & Alexander went for their weekly walk to Dunkin Donuts, the gazebo and the playground
• Played outside in the driveway - Daddy showed him how to play washers and let him sit in his kayak fishing
• After naptime, went back outside and played with Mommy & Daddy
• Used his soccer net, kicking the ball saying "Yeahhhhh"
