This is the typical blank stare we get anytime before about 10:00. Takes her awhile to wake up in the morning. (just like her mom!)
Laundry baskets make great entertainment!
These next two sum up pictures w/mom. She'll smile & be cute for her dad, but not me.
Lexi has a new love for coloring! She knows where we keep the colors and asks to get them out about 8 times a day. I've been surprised at how well she is doing. It's not like she colors in the lines, but she pays close attention to detail and knows exactly what she means to color.
She loves to wear her sunglasses whenever she knows we are leaving the house.
She will be cheering for the Chiefs this football season! So far, I think she is bringing them good luck. :)
She is a very hands-on eater. This is a new way to eat pb&j. Just get the peanut butter & jelly off and leave the bread alone.
Finished!
We kept Madie Rankin for an afternoon. Lexi loved having a playmate!
She is starting to look older. I told Mike the other day she looked like she was 12. I know in about a blink of an eye she will be.
She found a new hiding spot- in the closet in the spare room. She loves it!! She will open the door, say "HI" and then close it and kind of giggle.
Peeking out
This picture is just for Grandma Nean. It runs in the family! :)
Look how long her ponytail is getting. The black & gold bow is in support of the Hawkeyes! :)
So as usual- I feel like she is changing & growing up every day. She talks ALL the time. It used to be jibberish, but now it's turning into sentences that make sense. She trips on her own feet/gets hurt often, but it doesn't bother her. She cried and then goes about playing. I like that she's not too dramatic about it. However- she is dramatic about not getting her way. Such a girl! ;) Daddy is totally wrapped around her finger. He will never admit it, but he is! She loves him so much!! We kind of love her too! I really can't imagine life without her!!
