It's Official!

Alex is walking everywhere! He's been practicing for quite some time now, but he's been a little chicken. It ususally takes some coercing to get him to walk. Well, today -all morning long- he's been getting up and walking all over! Not only that.... amongst his travels, he figured out how to open and close doors with the handles! Oh man, I thought it would be a while before he'd even reach them! (It doesn't work to just close a door anymore!) So, while I was putting new sheets on his bed, Alex was walking from room to room, opening and closing doors- it was actually really cute:). It's a whole new world now!

Side note: Here are more words Alex is saying: ball, apple, kitty, na-night, bubble, and for things that go around, he waves his arms in a circle and says, "noa noa noa". He also tries to mimic lots of things that we say.
And oh man, I know that I mentioned he says "hi" before, but he is just sooo funny! Wherever we go, he likes to wave and say, in a very loud voice, "HI" to just about everyone he sees! If he gets someones attention, he'll keep saying Hi to them:). I wish I were so outgoing!
