The boy is all arms and legs.
Alex is officially a first grader. The bus scooped him up this morning and he was very anxious to be on his way. The bus comes at 7:55 and he was on our front steps at 7:30. See if this reminds you of anyone...Before Alex left, he spent five minutes pinning an American flag lapel pin to his backpack. Bless his tiny, patriotic soul.I let him burn off nervous energy by doing laps around the driveway on his scooter. Meredith wants to do everything Alex does, so out came his old Spiderman scooter. I didn’t want him to have helmet hair, so I let him ride around sans helmet, while he questioned my parenting skills.
Meredith was tooling around and Alex swooped in to tell her how she might improve her form.
I don’t know how Merdi is going to make it through the day without her brother’s unsolicited advice.

Aww... that backpack is as big as he is! What a cutie.
I'm anxious to read the adventures (aka trouble) that you and Meredith will experience while Alex is in school all day! :)
Congratulations Alex on your first day of First Grade! Oh, the things you will learn!
Les, I too want Dara Torres abs! As I watch the Olympics, my unborn baby girl thinks she is the next Shawn Johnson!
Have a great week! :) Jill
Typical big brother with his advice, which looks really sweet in the pics. Hopefully Meredith can function OK on her own - ha! :) I'm sure this will be my kids in a couple of years.
