1. Alex loves to dress up - he'll be a cowboy, superhero, doctor or even a princess

2. Yes, at this age he seems to be secure in his manhood

3. He loves Pokemon

4. Since he does not have any Pokemon stuffed animals he has renamed his current animals - Squirt from Finding Nemo is now Squirtle the Pokemon, etc

5. He loves broccoli! He eats all of it on his plate and then eats all of mine!

6. Alex gets sunburn under his eyes and on the bridge of his nose every single time he goes swimming no matter how many times he gets sunscreen or how often

7. He is loud! He is just a naturally extra loud child and hasn't quite grasped the whole "inside voice" concept

8. Alex is devilsh too. He gives you this smile where you just know he is about to do something he shouldn't or you are too late and he already did!

9. He is a sweetheart and will make quite the date when he is older.

10. He likes to open doors for me, hold my hand, and tell me how pretty I look

11. Alex has the best hair! It is so thin and hardly covers in some areas when it is cut too short but he has the cutest Alfalfa-like hair sticking up in the far back always. :)

12. He loves to read with me. His favorites right now are "We are Going on a Bear Hunt" and "The Very Hungry Caterpillar"

13. Alex starts PreK on Monday. He is so excited and I am happy to have him go off and do this part time, but I will admit I am gonna be sad and miss him. He's my little buddy!
