pretend play

Lexi has really used her imagination and creativity a lot since we moved to the apartment.  We brought most of her toys, but not all of them.  The toys are in new places, so maybe she feels like they are brand new again.  Whatever the case may be, she dives deep into pretend play.  She dresses up as a waitress almost every night for dinner.  She's not only the waitress, she is also the host, chef, and busboy. 

Today when I got out of the shower I saw this.
Lexi explained the scene.  She is the doctor and the life size Barbie is having a baby.  She has my iPad set up playing a birth slideshow I did for a friend to the tune of "Here Comes Your Man."  Don't worry, there is absolutely nothing graphic on the slideshow!!  The other babies around the room are in the nursery, of course. 

Maybe one day she will be a labor and delivery doctor and this picture will be in her office. :)

Day 8

Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Day 12

Today I am thankful for Apple.  Apple makes great technology.  Jason has been in Canada for almost a week and because of our iPads we were able to facetime with him!  Lexi gets a little shy when the conversation begins, but she quickly warms up and loves to talk and kiss him.  We love and miss him so much when he is traveling.  We are looking forward to the summer when he is home with us for a couple of months straight!!

#eattherainbow

We have officially been eating clean since right after Christmas!  I have been working a lot in the kitchen preparing and cooking clean food.  Yesterday morning while standing at the kitchen counter drinking my tea, I had a vision for our breakfast nook.  We never eat at that table.  It is wasted space.  While we were iced in yesterday (crazy north Texas weather) Lexi and I made a rainbow for St. Patty's Day (and because we LOVE rainbows!).  Today I pulled out blankets, books, and picked up succulents at Trader Joe's.  I made raspberry, lemon and mint water and put out mason jars + straws (we drink a lot more water if it has fresh fruit in it!).  And...tada...here is our cozy + bright lil' breakfast nook.  I think it is already becoming my happy place.  :)
