"Lexi-isms"

Some of my very favorite "Lexi-isms" to date are:

1.  She will hold up one finger when you ask her how old she is.
2.  She asks (in her own little Lexi way) for the song to be changed in the car.
3.  If anyone even says the word, "tickle" she tickles herself with a cheesy grin on her face.
4.  She yells, "Hot Dog" during the first note of the, well, "Hot Dog" song.
5.  She "jumps" and says, "Go" if you say, "Ready, Set..."
6.  If you ask her what song she wants to sing she will either say, "Row" for "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" or sprinkle her fingers in the air for "Itsy Bitsy Spider."
7.  Her favorite time to be held is while I am cooking dinner.  You should see my left bicep!  :)
8.  She answers "Yes" to most everything.  This is particularly entertaining when Jason asks Lexi political or philosophical yes/no questions.
9.  Lexi loves to pour water from one cup to another in the bathtub.  Her concentration is baffling and you can just see the wheels turning.
10. Lexi loves to "talk" on the phone...not to actual people though.  She talks on her pretend phone.  Whether it be a sock, a clothing tag, a bath toy, a piece of food, or an old phone, it is pressed to her right ear, her head is tilted and she is talking.

She is learning and developing so quickly.  We are stunned and amazed by her on a daily basis.

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...
