Busy Thursday...

I work from home and hang out with Alex on Thursdays & Fridays. Here is a very brief rundown of our day today...


We got up and saw Michele off to work and had breakfast, then I hit the laptop while Alex did laps around the main floor... living room, hallway, kitchen, living room, hallway, kitchen...As I continued workish behavior Alex watched the world go by out the front window. Thursday is garbage day and she loves watching the big trucks go by...
Then I sneaked outside... she wasn't quite sure what was going on...
After a while it was on to reading. Her cousin Max was recently gifted a very nice book about Cheerios, which Alex, as is her modus operandi, has usurped. She will "read" that book for an hour at a time...
After a nap and a conference call and lunch, we went for a walk which required some bundling up. How friggin' cute is her new hat?
We practiced some walking skills, both with my assistance and with that of a very cool walk behind hippo on loan from Maxwell...
Finally we finished up with some more random playtime and practiced talking with our mouths full...

What a busy day! It sounds like Megan and Alex are a lot alike, our day looks frekishly alike. And if you need even more weirdness, Megan is sleeping in those exact same pj's right now. I will say that Alex has Megan beat when it comes to her hat wearing cuteness. Good job keeping her busy Wes!

And does the hippo "eat"/pick-up toys as it walks?

The hippo DOES pick up toys... not that there are ever toys laying around our house... haha!

She looks so much like Michele in that hat!
