Christmas

Santa Brought Lexi a Tinkerbell kitchen
As you can see she just loves her kitchen

Digging out the presents

Lexi would not hold still for a picture with my dad. This was the best I could get.

Santa knows how much Lexi loves the vacuum so he brought her a princess one. Grandpa Martin said that Santa will be the last man to ever give Lexi a vacuum.

This Christmas was an interesting one. We started at my moms house on Christmas Eve and ate dinner and opened presents with all of the siblings (minus Stan who is on his mission in DC). All the grand kids were excited to get their presents from grandma and grandpa who by the way did an excellent job at picking out presents that each child would love. Carter got Geo Tracks and he was so excited, Ava got a cute piano and so did Addi. Lexi got the full Cinderella out fit to play dress up. Lexi was so hyper all night until about 9 when she started throwing up. We had to cancel plans to go over to Michelle's and take her home and get her in bed. The next morning we went in her room to get her up and show her what Santa had brought but there was an unusual smell in her room. She had spit (as she calls it) again in her crib. So before opening presents we had to get her into the tub and all cleaned up. Once we got down stairs and opened presents she was so excited. My dad was able to come down and see her open all of her presents from Santa and he brought her some great toys as well. He gave her a baby doll that she just loves. My dad left and went up to Tara's house while Brody began shoveling the driveway. He did not have enough time to finish so he just shoved a path for me and Lexi out to the truck so we could get over to Mike and Michelle's. We got some great presents from them to go with our camp trailer. We got a camp chief and just about everything we will need for the inside. Lexi got a cute little tykes digital camera. We then headed to Georgia and Dude's (Brody's grandpa Mike and grandma Georgia) house for breakfast. Georgia makes the best biscuits and gravy! When we left there we went to Ray and Bonnie's (Michelle's parents) house for dinner. After that we went home and went to sleep because both Brody and I had to work in the morning. It was a great Christmas and Lexi is still singing Santa Claus is coming to town. We are excited for next year!

I have been punked!

I decided to take a half day last Tuesday to get a few Christmas things done and this is what I came back to work to on Wednesday. A bunch of my good work friends punked me! Amber said that is what I get for taking a half day off and leaving her alone. I just enjoyed opening everything. These pictures do not do their work justice. Everything was wrapped individually, every picture frame, computer speaker, tissue box, printer, stapler, candle, post it's, etc, etc.

Sick or Not???

The last week has been pretty weird for Lexi. I cannot figure out if she is sick or not. She has been tired and grumpy the last few days but she doesn't have a runny nose or temperature. Just a tummy ache. I got the camera out while she was watching cartoons and she made these faces for me.

Happy Birthday Dad

Today is my dads birthday so I just wanted to wish him a happy birthday and let him know we love him so much! Your a great dad and grandfather. We love you!

Lexi's First Horse Ride

Look at her cute little face!

We went up to my dads house on Sunday and we all ate dinner and then went to the barn to ride Molly. Lexi had seen Molly before but this was her first time ever riding her and she liked it a lot. Molly is such a good horse, she let Carter, Lexi and Ava ride her. Lexi and Carter were running up and down the stales laughing and screaming and causing all the other horses to spook but Molly didn't seem to care. We had a fun time and love to go up to grandpas house. Lexi didn't want to leave she told me she was just going to stay there.

Another Favorite of Lexi's

NEMO!!! I have watched Finding Nemo more times then I can count. She asks to watch Nemo so much we have begun to tell her that he is sleeping so we can have at least 2 hours without hearing it through out the house. I have the whole movie memorized and so does Brody. The good thing is I can turn Nemo on and clean without Lexi coming along and making messes right behind me. She loves to make a bed on the family room floor with her special pillow and blanket and eat popcorn. The first two pictures are from a time that she past out on my bedroom floor watching Nemo. She is so Cute and we just love her!

What a Girl

Lexi loves to play with my heels! She will get them out of my closet and take them down to the kitchen so she can hear the loud clicks on the tile. She is such a girl. She loves having her finger nails painted and get her hair done. When I am getting ready in the morning she always comes in and tells me that she needs some make up and I will let her play with the blush brush. I thought I would share a few pictures. Girls are so fun!
