Younger Alex

Okay, well I'm gonna play a bit of catch up before I get into keeping up with our daily life. I know several of you have not been around to watch the kids grow up, so I'm going to post several pics of the kids way back when. I don't have a ton of Alex when he was really small because we didn't get this camera till Avril was born, so that is when they start.

Here is Alex around age 2-3. This was during the time he refused to speak; he used sign language and grunted. Aargh! There were moments I wanted to give him away, but times it was really funny too. The Christmas of that year right before Avril was born, mom and Alex were making a gingerbread house and the stinker right out counted the red hots he was putting on the roof from one to ten, then wanted to put on more so he signed the word 'more'. I got that one on tape - it was pretty funny. I don't know what it is with my kids sticking out their toungues. They both do it when they are thinking.
