A Boy and His Dog

Alex stands at any chance he gets and he's really enjoying it I think.  Yesterday he even stood on his own twice for a few moments balancing.  We think walking is just around the corner. 

If you can't go under, go over!

As I was vacuuming the rug in the entryway Alex took it upon himself to climb one of the steps to the upstairs.  He even started going for another one but Link distracted him.

Link does really well with Alex as you can see.  I think Link may even enjoy the attention, but I keep a close eye and tell Alex not to do things when he might be hurting Link.  So far so good.

Alex loves Link.

Daddy Son Love!!

We visited Royal Oak this weekend and got to see our good friend Geoff.  Alex thought he was a hoot. 

Alex has been trailing the coffee table all the time.  He even trust himself to bend down and pick up his toys and carry them around with him. Even the heavy bug toy he picked up and carried a while.

Alex has not wanted to eat anything lately.  He'll take a bite or two, but then he just doesn't want any more of one thing, he'll try another one or two bites and then doesn't want that.  I get this blank stare when I try and give him food he doesn't want anymore.  He doesn't look at me, he just looks off into space.

Link hovers by Alex's chair because Alex tends to throw what he doesn't want overboard.  After Alex was done eating this morning he got to pet Link some, which they both enjoyed. 

So I put up a gate in the door way to the play room so we could keep the door open.  Then Link can see in and Alex and I can see out, but that is only when Alex doesn't close the door like he likes to do. :)
