Playgroup at our house today

I borrowed some of my friend's pictures from our playgroup here today, since I didn't really take out the camera since I played the "hostess".

Mealtime for Alex

With all of two teeth, Alex is really enjoying sold food. Here he's getting into a Zwieback cracker.

Alex at the Basketball game!

I took this video several weeks ago at a Gator Basketball game. Alex liked waving his pom-pom!

Baby Mayhem

Here's a short video of the Baby gift exchange

Chanukah! Baby Mosh pit! Oh My!

Alex is enjoying his first Chanukah, here he is enjoying his new Truck that his Grandparents Joe and Kris got him:



Naturally, as seems to be the rule, he also greatly enjoyed the box it came in :-). Though he does make sounds, you don't need to turn his key, as the box indicates.



Our holiday party/baby free-for-all was a resounding success! Here Connor shows up to play in our newly safeguarded and fenced play room.


Later we had a baby cage-match, I mean gift-exchange. Basically all the baby's were let loose, and whichever package they grabbed first was the present they got.





Ellison got a pair of earmuffs (or headphones, or something), which she loved!

Alex got a Learning Turtle, which he likes very much.



For a better feel for the craziness, Ginny took a short video, which I'll post shortly.

Halloween contest

Alex and his friend Charlotte won our neighborhood Halloween costume contest!

Thanksgiving

Here are some pictures from Thanksgiving in Boca Raton.


Here is Alex with his Eema.

Here are Nana and Pop (great Grandparents) with Alex at dinner.
Alex seems to like Pop.
He also seems to like Nana, since he continued the same smile whens he held him.
Alex was fascinated with all of the mirrors in the apartment.

And yet even more playgroup!

Alex has very good taste in women.
Alex gets a bit fresh with Ava.
Alex hangs in the back and is a bit confused by the noise.

Our group is having so many playgroups lately; I think we all enjoy the adult discussion time as much as we enjoy the time that the babies have with each other.

Playgroup at the park

The weather has been so beautiful here. We decided to have playgroup at the park today. Alex and his friends enjoyed the swings, and crawling around on the blankets, trying to eat grass and pinestraw.

Here's a few cute pictures of Alex, courtesy of his friends.

Alex first tooth has finally broken through! There's no picture as yet because we can just barely feel it, and there's nothing to show for it.

To make up for the lack of tooth pictures, Alex was having a great time playing ball with me today and Ginny captured him while he was laughing away. Enjoy!

So here are the pictures that Ginny promised she'd have me post from the Fall Harvest Party.

But first, here's the pumpkin I carved for this Halloween, it's a trick or treating goblin!


Now that Alex is starting to pull himself up, he likes these play tables.


Alex's first pony ride!


Alex apparently enjoys the swings!


Some people weren't ready to end Halloween yet, as evidenced by the frog below.


Here Alex gets into the spirit of the Hay ride!



You've heard of a barrel of monkeys, here's a cartload of babies!

Picture people

Here are all the pics from the recent photo shoot at Picture people. Some of them are really cute!
