My little artist

Alex loves to paint just like his Daddy. He can spend hours just painting and coloring. I'm grateful for washable colors and paints because once in a while, even though he knows he's not supposed to paint on the walls, he gets tempted a create his own art. I guess he's just being a stubborn and adventurous 2-year-old toddler.

Alex is 9 months/ updates and more

I feel like I abandoned this blog ever since I started my photography blog and added a Facebook page for my photography. Check out my photography => BLOG. And Click here to view my Facebook page. Don't forget to click "like" to support my page. I may not be the best photographer but you see all my work in my Facebook page and you can watch me GROW as a photographer. This is my new photography website www.srs-photography.com and I just love it!!! It took 2 weeks to finish this website but it's worth it!

Anyway, so much about photography. Here are the latest news for this Month and a little update from last month's happenings...

-For halloween, he was a pirate and a monkey. He dressed up a pirate for trunk-or-treat, and a monkey for trick-or-treat. Thanks to my nice co-worker for the pirate costume and Robin for the monkey costume. He was stinkin' cute!

- Alex turns 9 months this month and he got his first haircut since his long hair was covering his beautiful blue-grey eyes. He did fantastic and now I can see his eyes all the time.

- I also made my 1st cherry cheesecake for his 9th month birthday. Thanks to Pete for teaching me how. She's a really good cook and so is her husband Brian. They are giving us a lot of tips and good recipes.

-Alex can now stand up on his own and push his baby walker and his other toys.He loves to crawl a lot though and he's all over the place. He is very curious! His current favorite toys are my pots, spatula, remote control, flip-flops and my piano! (not his small piano) Silly baby!

- He is 32 inches tall at 9 months and weigh 24 lbs. He's chunky and soooo heavy.

-He's a smart baby. Super talkative, active and cheerful. He's always busy. When he's quiet, he's up to something. So yeah, I follow him around like a puppy dog when he's not doing that to me. He's very friendly. Anyone, can hold him. He'll smile and wave a lot. He enjoys the attention.But when he's tired and hungry, Mommy or Daddy is the only one who can hold him.

-He had his first carousel ride with Dad

-He has 8 teeth

-He loves baby einstein show and Elmo

- He wears 18 months clothes and it fits him perfectly. He's kinda big really...

- We had thanksgiving dinner with the family. Alex had his 1st turkey and loved it! He's not a picky eater at all.

-Best of all! He calls "Mama" when he gets hurt or just want some lovin'. He's a love bug. He loves giving me hugs and kisses. It's definitely the best reward any mother could ever ask for from a baby.

Story time and play time

Alex loves story time, and play time with his new friends in the library. He also enjoys singing time. His teacher is so good. I just love her voice and the way she reads and interacts with children.Very impressive! Alex was very attentive. He's the youngest in the group but he's more attentive than most of the kids. I guess because he loves books. He's a little bookworm. Every night before bedtime, we read 3- 5 board books before we give him his bottle. And then I sing a few song before I put him in his crib. His Daddy would also do that same routine when he's off from work.

Isaac joined us at story time for the first time, that's why I got a couple of pictures during playtime. We also did craft as a family. Alex tried to help by reaching the glue and attempted to eat it :) Alex had a blast! He's very social! He'll wave and smile to anyone. He's a delight!!!!

The parachute game was a hit!

Singing ABC's with new friends

My little bookworm

He's really into books! His favorites are the "touch and feel" kind of books. He enjoys turning the pages and sometimes would pretend that he's reading it. He'll say "dadadadadada", then turn the page and starts saying "bababababa". It's so freakin' cute. I tried taking a video but then he decided he wants to play with my camera instead. I'll try again if I get lucky.

My curious boy

It's finally time to child proof the entire house. This boy is already crawling and just so curious. His latest obsession is my iphone, our kitchen cabinets and drawers. He will definitely be upset when he finds out that he can't open anything. I love this little guy. I am just so proud to be his Mom even though he's keeping me busy all day long.

Alex's daily activities

Good Morning world!

He can hold his bottle now. He completely stopped nursing

Play time with Daddy is always a blast

Playing with his toys with Mom and Dad. He's a busy boy

Walking around the kitchen with his fave car/baby walker

He eats twice a day now. he loves carrots and green beans



He also loves books, flashcards and music. He wants to play all the time when he's awake. I am a busy Mommy and Alex is busy baby. We both enjoy our time together. Life is good my friends!

Cool little dude!

I just couldn't resist this picture.

New trick

Lately, he loves to pull my hair or whoever is holding him. He also loves to grab necklaces or earrings. No more dangling earrings for me for a while. He did this a lot today at my friend's shower party. I posted some pictures as evidence :)

This little guy also tried to steal my friend's spotlight. Okay, he actually did. He was laughing so hard during games and screaming with excitement that everybody was staring at him with a smile on their faces.

Enjoying his ride

Checking out the side view mirror and adoring his face...kinda funny

He totally loves his baby walker/car and it keeps him busy for a while

"Mom! Stop taking my pictures"

New obsession

His new obsession is his toes. He loves to hold and sometimes suck them. I hope he'll stop doing this when he starts walking. But for now, I think it's cute.

My Lola (grandma) once told me that when a baby starts holding their toes, it means he/she wants a sibling. It's an old wives tale :)

For now, I just want to enjoy Alex and his cuteness. I will give him a brother or a sister in a couple of years.

Multi-tasking

Playing with his toy...

And watching Baby Einstein
I get that face a lot when he's interested with something

I'm getting big and keeping my Mom busy all day long. But she's lucky 'cause I sleep more than 8 hours at night. I let her sleep all night long so I can keep her busy all day long.

Alex's daily activities

Since he started sleeping 8 hours straight at night (and even more sometimes), he's more awake during the day. So I make sure he's busy during the day. Here are some of his favorite activities :

Reading time with Mommy

This little boy loves books! He's a bookworm in the making. I made him hold his favorite book and took this picture. As you can see, he's very interested with the book. I can even read it to him many times during the day. He's a very attentive 2-month-old baby. He loves colorful pictures and shinny objects.

He loves music time

He enjoys playing the piano (just like his Mommy). He loves the sound a lot that he giggles and drools like crazy...hahaha!

Our pet, Charlie is already admiring him for his outstanding talent.hahaha!

His other activities during the day includes: Tummy time, bath, chilling on his play mat, hanging-out with Dad when he gets home, eat, short naps, tickle time and making our hearts melt. He's so PRECIOUS.
