Update

Alexi is napping so I thought it would be a good time to journal her latest behaviors.  
  • Lexi loves to laugh.  She laughs when you kiss her, tickle her, when she sees herself in a mirror, when she other babies, or just randomly.
  • Lexi waves "hi" and "bye."  Usually she waves with both arms.  
  • Lexi loves when daddy comes home from work...big smiles!  
  • Lexi is SO close to crawling.  She is officially up on all fours and moving, but quickly falls to her stomach and she begins rolling again.
  • Lexi still loves to try and eat the rug.
  • Lexi loves to roam around the house in her walker.  It is seriously one of the cutest things I have ever seen.  
  • Lexi still loves to walk with one foot in front of the other while we hold her hands.
  • Lexi does not like eating from a spoon.  
  • Lexi only eats solids that she can pick up with her fingers. 
  • Lexi wants no part of holding her own bottle.  Hmm... 
  • Last week Lexi was the smallest person on the Tech campus.  
  • Lexi still kicks her feet all the time.
  • Lexi still sticks her toes in her mouth all the time.
  • Lexi also likes to blow raspberries.  
  • It is VERY difficult to change her diapers these days.  
  • Lexi gives the sweetest, most slobbery kisses and we LOVE them! 
She really is becoming her own person and it is delightful to see her personality developing.  I wonder what things I will be writing in 15 years?

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...
