Lex is TWO!!

Lex turned two on Saturday! Yes, two! Already! Time really flies. He had a wonderful birthday. He loves all his new toys and also got to video talk (via internet) to his family. He really likes talking through the computer. He occassionally asks to talk during the day (when everyone is working of course) and doesn't quite understand why we can't use it whenever he would like. He is having a blast with all his new toys! He got LOTS of Cars themed toys (he LOVES the movie), some clothes, a slide, a trike, a rake/shovel set, and a pair of swords. Dada got him the swords. Now he can really be a Thundercat! They play swords together; its cute!

Inara is getting big too! She loves playing with her toys and also with Lex. If you tickle her now she will smile and laugh! Watch out though; don't scare her - she will unconsolably cry for a long time! You know it's coming when the skin around her eyes gets bright red and you can see her tear ducts fill up. It's so sad! She is really a very good baby; she is only fussy when she is gassy or gets scared.

You will never believe what Lex did on Saturday! We went to the office so I could finish up some work I had left from Friday. We stopped a grabbed some dinner on the way. We got to the office and ate. After we ate, Justin was busy doing something and I was busy taking care of Sissy and Lex brings me the dvd out of the dvd player. I am still dealing with Inara, so I'm not paying real close attention to him. I know that he probably wants a different dvd and was going to change it as soon as I was done with Inara. I look over and the new dvd is waiting to be played, running the title menu. He took the old disc out, found and got the new disc, swapped them correctly, and gave me the old disc to put away. He did this completely by himself! Justin and I were shocked. He did everything correctly and in a short amount of time.

Inara is really loosing that "newborn look."The kids are really starting to look alike in the face. I am amazed by the kids all the time.
