Alex is growing so fast! Last Friday, he finally started to say "mamamamama". Apparently it means either "I want something" or "I'm not happy" because he only does it when he's upset. Isn't that always the way? ;) He's also got 2 teeth! I was a little surprised because Marc didn't get his first tooth until he was 9 months old, but Alex sprouted his first about 3 weeks ago and his second (both of his bottom middle ones) about 2 weeks ago. And he loves showing them off. :)

Marc is becoming quite the genius! (says the biased proud Mommy...) One of his teachers stopped me the other day as I was dropping him off. She told me that he's one of the youngest in her class (3 year olds) but he's one of the 2 smartest kids in her class. When they go over letters and numbers, he's the only one that knows them all. He can count up to 31. He's always doing his letters.

The other day, he asked for a movie and I was putting it on for him. He looked at the TV screen and said "V. I. D. E. O. One." I think reading is next! :) I try to read to him all the time, but he always takes the book away and insists that he read it. He loves making up stories. I bought him a train book from Amazon that turned out to be not at all what I thought. It's actually about 1.5 inches thick and is a reference guide for train hobbyists. But he loves it! He looks at all the pictures of trains and makes up stories about them.
