Alex entertaining us

Just a quick funny Alex story....

Here lately, if we leave a cup of water out on the table in our breakfast nook, Alex will sometimes climb up into a chair and get a drink. Last night, Peter and I were sitting on the couch watching as Alex did just that. He's so good about it too and has gotten to where he rarely spills anything. Somehow milk was brought up so Alex got down, ran over to the fridge, and got his milk out. He then took it back to the table and climbed back up into the chair. Now he has his cup of water and a sippy cup of milk.

So, we watched as he dropped the sippy cup of milk. We asked him to pick it back up. So, he gets down out of his chair and goes to get it. Only apparently he was distracted by something. He sat the sippy cup up (still on the floor but now sitting up instead of on its side) and goes off to get something. A minute later, Peter and I were laughing when we watched as he used a piece of paper to try and clean up the milk. He was wiping the floor with it. Then he grabbed the sippy cup and got up and went off to play. I kind of like this clean freak part of my son!! :-)
