alex is generally happy and relaxed, unless there are new people or loud noises. he loves to army crawl his long self around to explore and occasionally pull himself to standing. he manages to find and investigate all the things he shouldn't: power cords, phones, outlets, trash, the diaper bin, the plunger (ugh), and so on. he finds the vacuum an object both fearsome and fascinating. the short walk to the mailbox provides all sorts of curious things: keys, little boxes with papers in them, trees, the occasional dog, and airplanes overhead. each and every person encountered must be started at gravely, preferably with at least one finger in his mouth, before judging them worthy of a tiny smile or hiding his face completely. upon retrieving the mail, he inspects each piece for us before turning his attention to the door knocker and chain lock back home. (safety first!) he is endlessly intrigued by glasses and hats and will take them. he will not wear his own, but will inspect every article he can get his hands on. he has learned, through keen observation, how to use the remote control. AND and how to turn pages of books.
