The Grand...

We made our yearly trip to Point Clear, AL, this August. The kids, as usual, had a blast.  However, Anthony and I may enjoy it more than anyone else.  Boat drinks, lots of sunshine, good food, and some excellent sushi all add up to a great week.

 

Alex has turned into quite the little fish. 

 

This is pretty typical for the A-Train...the child is the most affectionate thing in the world--spontaneous hugs and kisses, I love you, mama, etc.  Then he will turn on a dime and be a complete cranky curmudgeon. This is one of many meltdowns. 

 

Here he was mad because Sam was also in the picture.  Other days he'd probably be mad because Sam wasn't in the picture.  You never know what you're going to get. 

 

And on to the day we tried to take family pictures.  Can you spell disaster? That day it was spelled A-L-E-X.  Bless him.

 

See? Look how happy we all are.  A picture-perfect family. 

 

I swear he's the sweetest thing.
