Yes, yes, an actual update later. Life's been good but crazy. But the katlyn requested birthday pics, and birthday pics she shall have!



Just a few random Alex pictures to start with....













Playing in a paper bag.... He really likes climbing in/out/through things, and will pull up the sides of the bag and duck his head to play peek-a-boo.














Presents!















Yeah, you might be sensing a theme. He is pretty into the Thomas train stuff. You can see we've still got a lot of gifts to go, and Nate's stepmother Karen, my mom, and me are in this one too. Please ignore non-photogenic-ness of the grown-ups.






This is a little talking/musical school set, with little people and stuff...












This is the gigantic wooden train table my insane mother got him! It's actually really nice, and he loves it like crazy. For now it's just out in the living room until we can figure out where to put it permanently. He's got a bunch of train engines and cars and well, all kinds of stuff. Construction/deconstruction/"accidental" train collisions happen frequently.












And this is a little pull along doggy that his great-grandma (Nate's Oma) got him. It makes little squeaky "barks" as it rolls along. Alex plays with it occasionally, but usually ignores it. However, if someone else plays with it, he gets very possessive and is quick to take it away.







Cake!














Yeah, my mom hadn't really intended to go blonde, so kindly ignore the hair...







And Nate, cause you probably miss seeing him too....








And another random day of Alex, wearing his cowboy hat (He likes to wear hats, but only for about 5 seconds at a time)

Could that boy look more like his adorable mommy? What a cutie pie. I want to pinch him and smush his cheeks.


Happy birthday little guy!

[sublimatedangel]

His cheeks are perfect for smushing! Those dimples are irresistable.

Thanks!

*all teary eyed*

He's getting so darn BIIIIIG. You have to start letting him smoke cigarettes and drink whiskey so his growth will be stunted.

Where the heck did this little guy go!

[sublimatedangel]

I know!! Sometimes I still catch myself saying "baby", but he really isn't any more :( I love him like crazy, but sometimes I miss that sweet little newborn.

Such cute pictures! The paper bag ones are super adorable. One of my sister's friends adopted a little girl from China and thought long & hard about the first toy she wanted to give to her when they went to pick her up in China. After she gave her this fancy toy, the little girl spent hours playing with the box :)

[sublimatedangel]

Thank you! Ahh yes, the well known "the packaging is more fun than the gift" situation :) Fancy toys can be fun, but everybody loves the basics - paper bags, boxes, scotch tape, banging on pots and pans...

Neat, neat, and neat! Cool cake! All peekchurs duly saved. :) Package(s) finally on the way, btw...think they'll be there Friday? *Muah!* (that's for Alex)

[kwizbit.livejournal.com]

Aww! He's adorable!! Enjoy :)

P.S. I tried writing slash for my other friend and the characters were totally ooc, so I don't think I can do it, but if you have any het pairings that you like I'd be happy to do them. I guess I just don't have the slash talent *sigh* lol

[sublimatedangel]

Thanks! He's a bit of a handful at times, but I do love him :)

Sorry your attempt at slash didn't go well, but you never know until you try, right? Hmmm, other pairings... I could go for something uncommon, like Xander/Amy before or during the Cordy/love spell fiasco. Or Jesse/Willow (either before or after Jesse is vamped). Either of those spark anything for you?

[kwizbit.livejournal.com]

Oh I like Xander/Amy! Interesting pairing! Ok, well I can def do that, so expect your story soon! :)

[sublimatedangel]

Hi! Yes, she's told me a bit about you as well, and thinks we'll get along well. I'm more of a lurker than a poster, but I've friended you back.
