Tantrums

Sweet Alex has decided he needs to be heard a bit more in the family, and the tantrums have begun. Often they involve his beloved tennis racket (found at the preschool garage sale, and purchased by Ben from piggy bank proceeds) - like when one of his parents want to take it away to wash hands.

Alex is saying more words every day - and is getting better at expressing himself. In the middle of the night, he'll clearly say "Up! Up!" (much to the dismay of his parents). When we rode the carosuol earlier this week, he was super excited at first, and then cried loudly "All done!" (said the same thing after a LONG bus ride to pick up Ben).

His latest word, is following any statement to him with "Why?" - it's gotten quite a reaction so far from the whole family.
