All grown up...

Wow, what a difference a winter makes. The last time I took Alex to the playground --- before Halloween (our first snowstorm was before Halloween and it still hasn't melted yet), he was unable to climb monkey bars, hold on to the swings, and didn't have the nerve to try the tire. Look at him now. We went to the playground yesterday for the first time since last fall. Wow, he's all grown up! Last time all he did was dig in the dirt and go down the slide a few times.

Of course... maybe I'm rushing him a little bit. I decided that yesterday would be a good day to teach Alex to ride the trike that Mom and Dad gave him... here's one of his attempts! Maybe he's not so grown up after all! :)
