Alex turns 1 year old!

That's right, on Aug. 20 at 12:27pm, Alex turned a year old. I can't believe it! How time flies. Alex had his very exciting Dr's appointment with Dr. Rezabek. Alex is doing very well - walking and talking. Alex was 21 lbs 3 oz putting him in the 23 percentile for weight and 29.5 in long - 50th percentile for height. Much better than his last appointment when he was only in about the 5th percentile for weight. Our boy loves to eat! OK, let's go over some of his favorites as he reaches this milestone.

Alex's favorites:

1) His favorite word is duck. I don't know how he became so infatuated with ducks, but he LOVES them. Alive, rubber, cotton, in a book - it doesn't matter as long as it has a beak. 

2) His favorite food - this varies - just when I think I have him figured out, he changes his mind. He seems to always enjoy sweet potatoes, hamburgers on the grill, cheese, and broccoli.

3) His favorite time to take a nap - 7am - yup, 7am

4) His favorite time to wake up - 5:30ish

5) His favorite toy -  Right now it is his door because it has a light switch he can turn on and off

6) His favorite book - Baby Einstein "What is in the pond." Why? You got it...there is a duck in the book.

7) His favorite evening activity - bath time

8) His favorite song - If you are happy and you know it - because he loves to clap his hands

9) His favorite thing to do that makes mommy crazy - flip and flop while I'm trying to change his diaper

10) His favorite activity - swimming
