Alex seems to continually find ways to make us laugh and remind us of just how bright he is. We often say grace, but sometimes add our own “personal” prayer (our friends, Rick and Laura, often do a personal grace and the boys have noticed). So at times, I or Adam have said our prayer. Now Alex likes to do it. He’s prayer usually goes something like, “Thank you God, mumble, mumble, mumble thank you for the Wii, mumble, mumble, and outside, mumble, mumble, and the slide, mumble, mumble, Amen!! It’s so adorable because he folds his fingers and puts his head down and everything!
Old McDonald is such a great song. Tons of animals to sing about, right? Alex has to take it up a notch. We started singing this before bed and I let Alex pick the animals. He picks 5 as I’m singing and then I go through all the sounds at the very end. He starts with farm animals, but then decided to add a giraffe. I asked him what sound a giraffe made and he said “mmmm”. That apparently is also what a zebra and butterfly says. Then he said that Old Mc Donald has a humpback whale on his farm!! The noise a humpback whale make is “ah-oooo”, which is actually from a Diego show.
So I’m preparing myself for new animals but he changes it on me. Did you know that the farmer has lots of instruments? Like a guitar, piano, horn, accordion, etc.! Coming up with those sounds are pretty funny!!
Alex has been the in the state of a kiss can cure anything. Which is adorable, especially when he bumps his head and he tells us he hurt his hair! And he loves kissing us when something hurts, too.
This happened a few months ago but still makes me laugh. Milt and Carol were hear for a visit and he was trying to get Milt to play Wii. Milt said that papa doesn’t know how to play. So Alex handed him the instruction manual!!
