Happy Birthday Alex!!!

This past year has really flown by; today, Alex turns 1. He is really starting to get around on his own (to places he probably shouldn't be).
When we found out we were having another baby, I really wanted a girl. Briana was pretty easy to take care of when she was young, and I was used to taking care of a girl. I thought raising a boy would be much harder. I have to admit now that I was wrong wishing for a girl; I couldn't be more happy with our "little man". There is just something really special about Alex; I can't put my finger on it, but I just know great things are in store for him in his future. The first word that comes out of everyone's mouth when they see him is "handsome." He has been going to physical therapy for the last couple of months because he is a little delayed in sitting up and crawling (not a real surprise since he was born a month early). He has been working extremely hard in PT and we can see the improvement in his strength. We can tell he is trying to do what the therapist wants and we are so proud of him. I'm sure it's not going to be long before he is walking everywhere. This next year is going to be so much fun seeing him grown and learn new things. We love our little man!
