Hello!

Johnny likes to put our clothes on his head. Here he is with Alexandra's shorts....

.....my undies...

And my bra. He couldn't figure out how to get this to stay on his head though so he put it on his arms.

My sweetie pie and her lifeline - her blankie.

All is good in the Lazaridis household. Johnny is busy, busy, busy following his sister around and still getting into things he is not supposed to. Now that he is getting older they are starting to play together and it is so cute. Alexandra has started to ask me when Johnny is sleeping when he is going to wake up cause she wants to play with him. So cute! Alexandra is great as well. She has been fully potty trained for about 3 weeks now, yeah! When people told me that one day they just decide to do it they were right. She literally woke up one morning and that was it. She was only going on the potty.

On a personal note, I am receiving my radiation this Thursday and will be in solitude for 5 days. Although I am looking forward to sleeping in that many mornings in a row I think I am going to be very, very, very bored. I am used to being busy non-stop all day long between the two kids. My mom is coming down to help Nick with the kids. Hopefully, this will be the end of my treatment and I can put this in the past!

Dress-up, Dancing & More!

Poor Johnny - he is already being forced to play dress up!

Alexandra in her dancing shoes!

The day Johnny decided to start walking he also started kicking balls. Here is a video of him outside with a ball. I think we have another soccer player on our hands!

Johnny's 1st Haircut!

Our Jabbah got his first haircut (by his Baba). He no longer looks like a baby but more like a little boy, so handsome!

Alexandra's Birthday

Alexandra turned 3 on Feb. 11. We celebrated with a Dora party! She was very excited for her big day. She is obsessed with birthdays and with hers over now she asks me nearly everyday if its anybody's birthday. (We had so many in a row, Nick, Johnny, Yia Yia, hers and Steve.) She is already looking forward to her next birthday and has informed me that next year she wants a Princess party at the park!

Brushes, Purses & More

One of Johnny's favorite toys of the moment is.......a brush! (what about all those toys he got for x-mas?!!) He will carry it around all day trying to brush his own hair as well as anyone else's that he can. If you are the lucky one he tries to brush you basically get hit on the head for two minutes with the hard side of the brush.

Much to his father's dismay, Johnny loves purses right now. He even knows that it goes on his shoulder. He will put one on and walk around with it for a long time! (I'd like to say that he is eating something in this picture but he actually is not. He just has HUGE cheeks!)

My cutie pie turned 3 this past weekend. She is getting too big! I will post some pictures of her party this weekend. (Steve's girlfriend Rebekah took all the pictures for me with her camera so I didn't have to worry about it. Thank you Rebekah!)

1! and Walking!

Our Johnny turn 1 this past Saturday! Dietz, Aunt Pat, YiaYia, Papou and Theo Steve joined us for a Star Wars themed party for our Jabba. Per usual, like at most 1 year old parties, he had no clue what was going on and wasn't interested in much but we had a good time celebrating. We cannot believe our little troublemaker is one already!

Johnny was not interested in his presents at all. Alexandra opened them all while he played with a balloon.

He was disgusted by the cake. He picked at it and threw a little on the floor. None ever went in his mouth. If he just would have tried it he would have loved it! His YiaYia made red velvet cake that was YUMMY!

I took Alex to the store to pick out a birthday present for Johnny. I thought it would be cute for her to get him a stuffed animal because he has none of his own and he loves to cuddle and kiss all hers. Well, what does she pick out, her favorite a dog. Although she technically wrapped the dog and gave it to him as a gift it has become hers.

The day before his birthday Johnny decided it was time to start walking. He looks so cute but looks like a shrimp walking next to his sister! You can see him walking in the video below.

All is good

My handsome man.

All is good in the Lazaridis household. Jabba is still busy, busy, busy. He now takes about 4 or 5 steps but still prefers crawling to get around because it is much faster for him. He is into everything and I mean everything. The other day I caught him eating the corner of the wall! He is finally becoming a little less barbaric in the noises that he makes and is starting to make sounds that are related to the english language. He has added "Da" and "Ba" to his vocal skills.

Alexandra is good as well, becoming more and more of a little girl everyday. Some of her favorite things right now are Dora, jumping and dessert! The other day Nick asked her what her last name was. She said Marco! We died laughing. We have no idea how she got that.

In less than 2 weeks Jabba will be 1! They grow up too fast! Alexandra can't wait for his party to eat his cake and open his presents for him!
