Despite all the work we put into the Dragon Party, the School Party totally trumped it!

We had the most wonderful afternoon at Dexter’s school while his teacher talked about what it meant to complete 3 years.  After we shared Dexter’s story, his friends gave him a special card they made and then each one took turns saying something nice to him … I lost count of how many “Te quiero” and “Te amo” were said!

The month of October was filled with lots of family visits with trips to Milwaukee, Cleveland and Oshkosh.  But after we got home this week, all Dexter could talk about was his Great-Grandma Carol and his Great-Grandpa Gene!

Christmas is over, but I thought I’d share Dexter’s last night with the Christmas Tree.

We got into an adorably cute routine of us doing a countdown to turning on the lights and Dexter screaming PRETTY!

When I got home from work tonight, Dexter WALKED over to me to give me a hug.

I don’t even remember what else happened today … but solo-walking followed by a hug makes today the best day!

In Spanish, the word for baby girl is “nena”.  Dexter seems to like that word better than baby, so we have been talking about Nena a lot the last few weeks.

Dexter’s energy level never ceases to impress me … this video was taken 30 minutes before he went to bed.

I guess it’s no wonder he sleeps 11 hours a night!

Dexter is THIS CLOSE to walking by himself.  He gets so excited that he screeches each time he is standing alone.

Until he takes those first few steps … the video camera is rolling!

This game of catch went on for about a half hour, Dexter was equally excited each time he rolled the ball to me!

I’m not sure I remember the first time I learned to played to catch.  Such a simple game – I’m happy, at least, that I can witness just how fun it is for a little person to discover.

On Monday, Dexter finally took his very first crawling-in-a-straight-line steps!

For months he has been getting around with his awkward move of scooting/rolling/sitting.  (here)  (here)  and (here)   And his new milestone achievement certainly didn’t come without a few bumps and bruises (here).

Check out this video from a very proud mommy and daddy!

I heard a fuss from Dexter, looked over, and couldn’t help but laugh when I saw what was going on.  It was probably cruel of me to photograph the situation instead of instantly helping …

And how did the mirror get so far away?  We videotaped this right after he went through all that work to get the mirror:

Welcome to Daily Dex!

We live in Mexico City, Mexico. Our families live in the Midwest, USA. The distance didn't seem so bad when it was just my husband and I, but after Dexter arrived, and especially after Alexandra arrived, 1500 miles was just too much for our families.

Shortly after Dexter was born, so was Daily Dex: our little blog is designed to be a safe haven for all the gushing, bragging and sharing of Dexter’s & Alex's daily accomplishments and adorable little milestones.

In other words, if you came here – you are asking for it!
