In Daddy's office the Sunday he was getting ready to leave. She was happy cuz it was her lunch time. :)
Lexi is looking into a mirror in these next 2 pictures. She absolutely loves looking at this other baby in the mirror. Too funny!
1st day with Grandma! I didn't take very many pictures, but just know Lexi didn't go without love while dad was gone.
Lexi got to meet more new people! This is her cousin Luke. He is around a month or 6 weeks older than Lexi.
I was hoping when she saw him sit up it would make her want to as well. Not so much. I guess that only worked the 1st time, w/Madison. Luke is moving around like crazy. He must have really liked Lexi, because he was trying to eat her toes at one point. :) I wish we lived closer so we could get them together more!
Lexi's hair has been growing a lot. While Daddy was gone we realized it was long enough to put a bow in. Pretty exciting stuff! I never realized a little piece or ribbon could make her look any cuter than she already does, but wow. She is such a little doll.
Daddy got home just in time for the 4th of July! We were able to spend the afternoon/evening with our friends, Brian & Cristy Tice. In about 6 more weeks, Lexi will have a new friend!! We are so excited to meet Brian & Cristy's little girl!
Pretty baby girl!
She loves her daddy so much!! 
Next Friday, Lexi & I are going to Iowa for two weeks while Daddy goes on a missions trip to Bonaire. It's going to be very difficult to be away from him that long. Please pray for our little family as we deal w/being apart for so long. It's pretty hard on the mom to see her baby girl looking around for daddy and not be able to explain why he is gone. We are thrilled Mike is able to go on this trip & use his gifts to serve the Lord. We'll just miss him an awful lot while he is gone!
