I don't know where Alex got this cowboy craze but here he is! He puts on a plastic cowboy hat that's about 3 sizes too small, sits on his horse and says "giddy-up" and "ride 'em cowboy!" Those are the only two phrases I know, so he's pretty limited. He is also learning to dress himself, that's why his shirt is on backward. A few more Alexisms... he loves the old church hymn "come thou fount of every blessing", but he calls it "come thou fountain". We're just happy he likes good music! He also really likes Lydia, sometimes a little too much. When he gets really close to her face I say "give her space" and he says "where's space?" and looks around. I guess when you take it literal...he'd love to give it to her, but he doesn't know what or where it is!
Other than proud parent stories, we've got nothing! Life is good here, I'm starting to feel better and Dave is still loving work. Oh, and Lydia slept 6 hours straight last night!!!! Yipeee! We were in heaven!

I don't know what it is, but it does seem like all boys go through a cowboy thing. Eth's got cowboy pics, remember Jason's pictures!!! I'm sure Dave's got some somewhere! The only other cowboy phrase I know is reach for the sky. Does he like Toy story, that has cowboy stuff in it. Anyway, I just love that picture!
