tHUrSDaY's

Thursday's are a little rough on this mom. Lexi has tumble bugs at 10:00 am which happens to be right in the middle of nap #1. Yes, she is still taking 2 naps a day. Since tumble bugs is during the first nap, I have to get up before she does so I can shower and get ready. I try to go to bed early on Wednesday nights, but last night I was working so I didn't go to bed until 11. It also rained last night/early this morning and Jason is out of town, so needless to say, I didn't sleep well at all. Ok, I digress, enough about Wednesday...the title of this entry is Thursday. So, back to Thursday. Regardless of how much sleep I get on Wednesday nights I LOVE Thursday mornings. I love it because the garbage truck comes and Alexi LOVES the garbage truck! When we hear the truck from the living room we rush to the window so she can watch. Lexi watches the garbage truck with her jaw dropped. She keeps her arm extended, points, and waves hi and bye to the truck. She gets so excited to watch the truck lift the trash cans and she is amazed by the flashing lights. Although I wouldn't get excited about watching the garbage truck alone, Alexi reminds me all the time to just enjoy the moment and to appreciate the little things in life. Alexi's not even 15 months old and she is teaching me lessons. She is amazing and I appreciate every little ounce of her!

kindergarten boxcar parade

Well, everyone was healthy until Lexi got the flu and I got pneumonia.  Needless to say, it's been a rough week...BUT, we are better again and for the most part back to normal.  Jason, Lexi and I all worked together on this and we think it turned out great!  All the boxcars were unique and wonderful!  The parade was wonderful...it should have been televised!!

daddy/daughter dance

I have some catching up to do on the blog, but I wanted to write tonight while my feelings and emotions are raw... About a month ago we received an email about the daddy/daughter dance tonight.  Jason attached the flyer and forwarded it to me saying, "I have to work."  I frowned and moved on.  I didn't think much about it until the other day.  I had an "a-ha" moment and asked Jason if we could ask his dad so Lexi wouldn't miss out on the ball.  Jason called Kevin the next day and I received a text from Jason right after saying, "My dad would be happy to take Lexi."  I was delighted and Lexi was on cloud 9 when I told her Paw Paw wanted to take her to the ball (side note...we didn't tell Lexi about the ball because we didn't think she was going to be able to attend since Jason was out of town). The next day Jason left work early and met us at the mall for a little ball dress shopping.  Lexi danced around the dressing room in about 8 diff...
