It has been 8 months and the time is flying by. Alex gets more and more comfortable with home and the fact that he is a member of our family. Most of the time this guy is a happy little guy. He likes to play outside and loves to play with the dogs,Tanner and Dusty.He has learned that if something isn't to his liking that he can throw a little fit. We usually can laugh it off and tell him he looks like a chicken when he puts his arms up like chicken wings and gives you a big time pout. But sometimes it goes over the edge....like in a restaurant where he knows he can get the attention of everyone in the restaurant. We have learned never to take him anywhere if he is tired.......Or be prepared to deal with a major show wherever we decide to go.
He is persistent.
The bedtime ritual has gotten so much better. He sleeps in his bed and then whenever he wants to come to ours....he comes down and climbs on our couch or in bed with us. We no longer have all the screaming....... or the tantrums.......Life has its blessings!
Alex is very athletic and active....He is also starting to ease up about..."Where are we going" "What are we doing?" The 100 times a day questions has gone to a few times a day! That is good news. The indiscriminate affection thing is going away also. He is doing so much better by those standards.
