milk + cookies
This morning Lexi asked me to tell her about the day she was born. I have been thinking about her turning 5 for a few months now and I just can't believe she was born almost half a decade ago. She is the jelly to my peanut butter, the cherry on my ice cream, and the cookies for my milk. I love you sweet 4.5 (almost 5) year old!

just because
Jason had a cake waiting for me the other day when I got home from work, 'just because.'
When we were dating I had the same cake delivered to his office. I wanted to show him I loved him, but I couldn't send flowers to his office so I sent a cake. Nine years later and we still show our love for each other 'just because.'
P.S. Today is the day we became 'boyfriend and girlfriend' 9 years ago. :)

fall
The summer heat is finally coming to an end and my favorite season here! We enjoyed some much needed rain last night and today. The fall candles are burning and we are looking forward to some new things this fall. :)

a few of my favorite things...
In no particular order:
1. When Lexi sleeps she puts her palms together and place her hands under her cheek.
2. In the car seat she sits with her hands by her side and they are in tiny fists. She has done this since she was a baby.
3. She thinks I'm beautiful.
4. She hides a diet coke for me in the bathroom while I get ready. She says it is from the "Diet Coke Fairy."
5. She still loves to snuggle.
6. She stops in her tracks when I sing, "You are my sunshine." I stop in mine when she sings it to me.

grandma mike's visit
Grandma Mike was here from Friday afternoon until this morning (Monday). We had a wonderful time with her! On Friday we went to dinner at a delicious bar-b-q restaurant by our apartment and then went for frozen custard. On Saturday, we had lunch at a German restaurant and they played a song Gigi used to dance to at family parties! After lunch we shopped for Lexi's school uniforms. Grandma Mike bought some of Lexi's things and also a matching uniform for Nine (more pictures to come)! After uniform shopping Grandma Mike and I got some adult girl time and headed to the Frisco Mercantile. Saturday night we had dinner at home, watched a movie and played. On Sunday, we had brunch in downtown McKinney, looked at houses, and had Mexican food for dinner. We ate a lot, laughed non-stop, Lexi and Grandma Mike played and danced a ton, and overall, we had a perfect visit. We were sad to see Grandma Mike leave this morning, but we are so thankful she came to spend time with us!
