Picture Day!

Today is Picture Day for Alex. Say CHEESE!! So last night, we were practicing his smile and went to Target for a new shirt. I remember as a kid, we always got new outfits for picture day. I think it's funny that I am doing the same thing for my kids!!

After school today, Alex has an eye doctor appointment. He has been saying that things are blurry at school. I haven't heard him complain at home but I thought I would get it checked out especially since he had a lazy eye problem at 5 years old.

Alex is such a great kid. The other day, I was looking at him and it just amazed me how quickly he has grown up. He is getting so tall and so mature-looking. It just blows my mind to think that soon his voice will be changing and all the other fun stuff that goes along with puberty. He has been working so hard lately with his swimming. We went and bought the special spandex swimming suit and he requested a swimming cap. He was so excited! I remember taking swim class in high school. I HATED wearing a swimcap but it's something new and exciting for him. His first swim meet is this Sunday. I can't wait. He's got a great freestyle stroke!!!
