Alex is a Walker!
Alex has started walking! It seems like only yesterday that Alex was crawling around helplessly. It amazes (and scares me a little) to see him hit these milestones so quickly.

I Have a One Year Old
Alex Javier Becerra
One year ago today, I was in a hospital room with my wife, Jo. She was a few hours into her 17 hour labor that would result in the birth of my most favorite person in the world: My son, Alex.
