BYU Homecoming Parade

So, yesterday we took the kids to the parade and it was cold and I don't mean 60 degrees cold...I mean 30-something-seeing-you-breath-COLD. We had a lot of fun and by we I mean Genne mostly, Alex was his regular party-animal self.

So here are a few  ok a LOT of  pictures that I took.

 Our little party-animal

 Good ol' Alex

 Genne having fun with Daddy :)

 Yep, they had lamas...Why, I have no idea!

Feel like you were there...right, right?! Well, you are very welcome♥ ♥ ♥

Tomorrow I am going to a pumpkin patch with Alex's school...So I am off to make Genne a pumpkin bow to wear of course, he he he!

Thanks for stopping by and I will see you tomorrow for even more pictures since that is the only reason you come by anyway, right? And I am totally ok with that :)

Update on our Alex

• He has learned a ton recently. 
• He respond better to people and even want to interact most of the time. 
• He love numbers and to count things.
• He can recognize his name if you write it down and can trace it with his fingers.
• He can spell out "sega" and "sonic" with his blocks.
• He plays really well with Genne and will sometime try to get her attention by coming really close to her face and trying to make her laugh
• He knows the months if you show him a calender and can tell you all the number in there
• He know his shapes and can also identify them anywhere and also his colors
• He knows sister's name and call her "Genebib"...Way cute and if you write it down he knows it is Genne's name.
• He always says "I am sorry, soo sorry" whenever he is upset, hurt or in trouble.
• When he feel down he says" Are you ok bu-ddy".
• He refers to himself as "Alex" or "Alexandre"...So funny because he will cry, you can hear him going " Alexandre so sad"
• When Gennie is crying he say " Why so sad"...At least he knows his emotions...Right?!
• His teacher says that he is doing really well in school and are really proud of all the progress he is making...Although, they want to get him tested for autism, which we will do soon. They also said that anytime they can't get their Ipad to work, they just have to give to Alex and he will know what to do...So proud of my little non-talking guy :)
• He had recently added ships and cookies to his menu.
• His favorite game in his iPod are  Sonic and The Angry Birds ( which he is really good at getting 3 stars)
• His favorite toys are his blocks, leggos and puzzles
• He can repeated a complete full sentence really clear.
• Everyday, when Genne and I go and get him from the bus, the first thing he says as soon as the door is open is : "Mama, we here...we here" ...Soooo cute ♥ ♥ ♥

He is such a patient, smart little guy. We LOVE you  and are very proud of you buddy

I appreciated all the love they have for each other and how patient they are with each other( mostly Alex), they make me want to be a better person :) I know that I might not be the world most perfect mom but I am all they have and will do my best to be the best mom for them !

Alex's First Day of Pre-school :)

Alex started pre-school yesterday and poor little Genne was so sad all morning. She did not want to let go of his hand the whole time we were walking him to his class and cried when I took her hand away from him to give him to his teacher.

I love it how those two are such great friends :)

Can not wait to see all the progress he will be making this year :)

Good luck with school, big guy :)
