Lexi is 1

Lexi's first birthday was this week. I can't believe she is one. We had family come over and have cake and ice cream. Lexi was not all that into the whole thing.

She hadn't really napped good all day so she was in a bit of a bad mood.
We opened presents, she just kinda watched me she didn't want to have anything to do with it.
She got a bunch of really cute things.


After presents she got to eat her very own cake.......

and again she didn't really care. I thought for sure that she would dig into it.

Nope, at first she wouldn't even touch it with her hands. She would just bend over and stick her tongue on it. She finally got her hands in it a little. Then I decided to give her a cupcake with messy green icing so she would at least get a little bit messy.

We still had a blast. She loves all her toys. And thank you to all of you who came. I know this is a busy time of year. Love you guys.

Man its been a while, sorry

Sorry its been a while. We had a really good thanksgiving. Greg and Janice came out. It was so nice to see them. They stayed at our house while they were here Andru loved it she was really sad when they had to go home. While they were out we all went to dinner.

I looked at Andru and this is what I saw.
Yep that is butter. Yum huh. She just decided that she wanted to eat some butter and of course I had to let her so I could get a picture.
Lexi is such a dork she is so flipping cute. I hate when babies get teeth it is just sad it just reminds me that they are not babies anymore. So I was sad when Lexi started to get her teeth, then they came in like this and I love it she look so stinking cute.

She is my little Vampire. She has her two bottom middle teeth too so she looks so cute.

And Lexi finally started to stand up on her own. She isn't walking yet but I think she will be really soon.
(I know my floor is a mess)

So that is all we have been up to. Lexi will be 1 in a week and a half. Sad, I can't believe it has been a year.

Halloween

We had a great Halloween. Lexi was the cutest little pumpkin. She was actually really good too. She never got mad about being dressed up she never even tried to pull off her head band.

We got ready at like 3:30 and she didn't get out of her costume until probably 9:30 so I think she did awesome.

Andru was our beautiful little fairy. This was the first year she really got excited. She loved it and now she won't take off her wings. It was hard to get a very good picture of her she was being all crazy and wouldn't hold still for very long.
I think they turned out so cute We went to the mayors walk there were a ton of people there. It was fun they had some fun games for the kids.

Then we just went to all the grandparents houses. They were both so good and had a lot of fun.

Now I just need to do something about all of the candy.

Our fun little trip

We flew out to Kentucky on Thursday I was really worried about Lex on the plane. She did really well. She didn't cry once.

Greg, Janice and the girls met us at the airport. We went to dinner and drove around a bit, it is so pretty with all the horse farms everywhere.

One night we got a babysitter and Greg and Janice took us to the best restaurant.
It was so good.

Lexi has a favorite blanket, it is so cute she will just nuzzle up to it and fall asleep. When we got home from dinner this is how we found her. Just sleeping on the floor with her blanket.

We also went to the horse races, it was so fun to go and experience. We were right next to the winners circle. It was so awesome to get to see the horses up close they are so gorgeous








We also went to the WoodFord Bourbon distillery.
It was really fun to see how they make the bourbon. At the end of the tour they will give you a free sample in a little shot glass you can keep. We wanted the glass just not the sample so we asked if we could just get the glass, I think they thought we were crazy. We go to a bourbon distillery and then we don't take the sample. It was really interesting though just to see how things are done

We had a blast. We went to church with them and we also went to a movie with Janice while Greg watched all the kids. Poor guy Lexi screamed a lot. I loved it, it was just really fun to go and see them we have missed having them around.

It was fun to experience new things. Thank you guys so much it was awesome.

We love you and we miss you.

One cute baby, pumpkins and off to Kentucky

Our awesome neighbors Lisa and Anthony have the cutest little boy!!!! Lawrence he is so stinkin cute a few days ago we got to watch him for a couple hours. Thanks Lisa. Lexi really likes him she kinda wants to eat him. But I took a cute picture of him while he was sleeping and thought I would share it with all of you..... don't you just want to cuddle and kiss him?

We also went and got pumpkins the other day Andru thought that was pretty cool.
And on Thursday Kristi and I are off to Kentucky!! I am so excited we are going to take the babies with us. This is my very first plane ride. I am so excited. The farthest east Kristi or I have ever been is Denver so that is also really exciting.. But the best part is we get to go hang out with Janice, Greg, Taylor and Morgan. I can't wait we have missed them a lot. Did I mention how excited I am? Sorry I know but really I can't wait. See you guys in a few days!

So not to much has been going on at our house. Crazy Lexi started pulling herself up to things like a couple days after she started crawling, and lately she has started trying to let go she can stand for a few seconds then falls.

Andru is loving preschool. She has grown up so much lately. She is such a good big sister. She will get treats for Lexi and then she will lay then out on the floor in a trail to get Lex to go where she wants her to. Kinda like E.T.

Lexi had her very first sucker.

She loved it.

It is so hard to get lex and Andru in a picture together and have them both smile or look at the camera. This is the best one I have been able to get.

Sorry I know my life is not to exciting to read about but I love it.

Preschool

Today Andru had her preschool open house. I wasn't sure I wanted to put her in preschool. I am glad I did she was so excited about the open house. Then after all she could talk about was what she is going to do in preschool. They made cute little crowns today. It will be kind of nice to be able to run errands while she is in school. I can't wait to be able to go grocery shopping with only Lexi.

I order the cutest pajamas for Lexi and Andru they look so cute. I also got Andru and Lexi's Halloween costumes. Now I just have to wait 2 months for them to be able to wear them.
