My boy is not a baby

Alex and Mommy playing with bins.
I think when parenthood hit I was least prepared for how quickly they change.  Every little milestone, crawling, walking, first words, etc. seem so monumental at the time.  Looking back they're just fleeting moments in the constantly growing and changing life of Alex.  Hopefully we documented those moments well enough that they aren't gone forever.  He's becoming a little person with wants and needs that he can communicate.  He has his favorite phrases "Wook at dat, DA!" and "Whured it go?  All gone?"  Yesterday he wanted to play catch with one of Marty's toys.  I was busy cooking dinner so I told him he should play with Marty.  They played "catch" for a good 5 minutes together.  "Dwop it Mahy" when the dog wanted to play tug more than fetch.  Made me think about how much fun it's going to be to watch our kids playing together.  I hope the playing outnumbers the fights.  We shall see.
