Alex went on an Easter egg hunt today! He loved it! I loved being out of the house! Don't worry, I took extra medication so I wouldn't contract...I had fun even though I'm sure my heart rate was well over 110..The things I wouldn't do for that kid! He loved all the "furry animals" and this is the first year I let him actually touch them...Everything but the Easter bunny...Hopefully We"ll do that next year. The Easter egg hunt showed my what a passive kid Alex is...not a competitive bone in his body. His favorite part of the whole thing was seeing the firetruck...he is obsessed with firetrucks! He had a balloon which got away and he sobbed and sobbed as it floated out of sight. So, Feeling sad for the boy, we walked what seemed a half mile over to get another. The good news? Even after all that walking I still feel pretty darn good!
Alex has had a language explosion in the past month (I've been waiting forever for this). He went from almost no words to well over 20 in the past 2 weeks. I only "count" a word when he 1) says it on his own without prompting 2) is understandable by someone else who is not me. 3) uses it purposefully and appropriately.
