Nothing under the sofa

So i thought i would find out exactly where i was in the blogosphere:Pretty accurate representation of me and my standing.

HUGE!!!

Alex has learned how to cook at least two things. When we first met him, he didn't even know how to boil water. No joke! I mean, we haven't talked about it too much, but, we don't think he's retarded.Now, in addition to microwaveable pizzas and Taco Bell, Alex can feed himself with homemade brussel sprouts and what he likes to call his "Waffle House Hash Browns."
BoldI'm gonna go find things under the sofa now. Ttyl.

Snitches Get Stitches

And so do Alex's pants. Tonight, with some instructional help from Carly, Alex sewed for the first time ever. Turns out, it was harder for him than he imagined.

Still here

I think this is one of my favorite pictures of myself. These people act like they know me and they're always trying to pick me up but they don't even know me at all. Like, last night they had no idea where i was. I went to the Tube and went dancing. This babe at the bar bought me a drink and asked me to come home with her but turns out she was allergic and didn't know it. You don't even want to know what happened from there.

Thanksgiving

Alex's first Thanksgiving away from home. Needless to say, it was also his first turkey-less Thanksgiving.

See, look: no turkey and the little guys still looks so happy.

Alex's Firsts

This guys Alex comes to my house a lot. I don't invite him here and he still comes. See, Alex, he's from Louisville, Kentucky (gross) and he hasn't done too much before. I've gotten to experience a lot of his firsts with him, and i thought i'd start sharing them with you.

Alex's first pumpkin carving:
I'm going to try to be sensitive with this. Everyone's first times are scary, beautiful, and sometimes stupid looking. We want him to try new things but we first and foremost want him to be safe. Remember our mantra, guys.
