Alex is now 8. I can't believe that the happy smiling baby boy I had 8 years ago has turned into such a handsome, crazy, imaginative kid he is today. So here are some things about Alex:
His favorite color is still red.
His favorite toy, which he just got for his birthday, is his Power Ranger figure (he got two actually, one from Aunt Kim and the other from his brothers)
His favorite fruit is watermelon.
His favorite TV show is Power Rangers.
His favorite thing to eat for lunch (and if he could breakfast and dinner) is Hot and Ready cheese pizza from Little Caesars.
His favorite outfit (which he just got for his birthday) is his red shirt and red Puma shorts.
His favorite game is Uno.
His favorite snack is Goldfish.
His favorite animal is a Lion.
His favorite song is Radioactive by Imagine Dragons.
His favorite books are the 13th reality series (although he loves a lot of books that he listens to on tape).
His best friends are Jacob Alder and Bauer McAuley.
His favorite cereal is Lucky Charms.
His favorite thing to do outside is play with his brothers.
His favorite drink is rootbeer.
His favorite holiday is Easter (it's not a surprise that it is because he was born on a Easter Sunday).
He loves to eat cereal for breakfast (and he also likes to have some at night too).
He wants to be a movie star when he grows up.
