Mother's Day and Half Birthday!









Yesterday I had my first true mother's day. It was wonderful. To be honest though, I feel like the luckiest person in the world so yesterday was not too different than other days. Jason did however surprise me with a video of Lexi's pictures (will post soon), a picture frame, coffee mug, luggage tag, and a sweet card. We spent the afternoon at Mimi and Paw Paw's with Aunt Sarah. It was a beautiful day so we sat on the patio and ate sandwiches from Central Market. Lexi missed an entire nap, but she was still in a good mood. Last night when I woke her to feed her the "top off" bottle she fell back to sleep in my arms. Usually, Lexi does not snuggle. When she is tired she likes to soothe herself to sleep in her own bed. I'm confident Lexi fell asleep in my arms on purpose...one more gift for mother's day from her to me.

Today Alexi turned 6 months! I am so excited to see her growing and learning new things everyday. Today, Lexi started truly enjoying her activity center. She played the piano on purpose rather than accidentally hitting the keys. She is now kicking her legs as well while she plays and bouncing when she sits on the ground or in my lap. She is so much fun!
