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. :)

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!!

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...
