Our little runner....Alex is a difficult guy to keep up with these days. He is constantly on the move wherever we go.

Getting ready for the holidays
The three of us went to Kendall-Jackson Winery for our holiday photo session. Our photographer, Ashley, was great with kids and patiently waited for Alex's best moments. We ended up with about 100 shots and chose this one and another for our Christmas card
. It's hard to believe Alex is already 20 months old and will be celebrating his second Christmas. This year he is very aware of all the decorations, the concept of Santa Claus, the Christmas tree, and of course presents! He still, however, is more excited about the gift wrap than the actual present...but we imagine that will be a lot different next year.
We will be meeting Santa at the Bel Marin Keys Yacht Club in Oma and Opa's neighborhood in a couple of weeks. Alex will be amazed to see Santa pulling up in a speed boat to deliver treats to all the kids...we'll be impressed too!
These days Alex is running all over the place. He has never-ending energy and is curious about everything. He tries to balance on everything imaginable, so we think he will be a good surfer later in life. He loves to "read" all of his books (over and over again) and points out all the animals. His toys get a daily workout and he's great at helping Mommy and Daddy with cleaning and other chores around the house.
We can't believe what a personality Alex has! He sees the fun in everything and has the best sense of humor. He is also such an affectionate little guy...he gives out hugs and kisses regularly, even to the little girls in stores who might not be so interested in a hug or kiss. Luckily, our golden retriever appreciates the gentle hugs Alex gives him at least once or twice per day.
