Starting a blog!!



I decided it was time to join everyone else and post a blog. I think this is a great way to keep in touch with everyone and keep everyone up to date on what is going on in our lives.
Our little Lexi just turned three on February 13. I can't believe it has already been three years since she joined our little family. A lot has happened in this time. A new house, a new job and new experiences everyday. Our spunky little girl sure keeps us on our toes.
This is one of my favorite pictures of Lexi. This was taken when she was only 9 weeks old, right before I went back to work. This pictures captures how innocent she is. I have this picture on my desk, my kitchen counter, wallet, screen saver, ect. It make me smile every time I see it.

I would post a picture of Lexi's third birthday pictures, but she wouldn't cooperate. I thought I had planned the day perfectly. We went to the Discovery Gateway in the morning with Aunt Shannon and Dylan. We went home and had lunch and both me and Lexi went down for a nap. The problem is only one of us napped and it wasn't Lexi. I decided to try pictures anyway. We got to the mall and the snow started falling. I ran around the car getting everything ready and leaving Lexi in the car until the last second. I got her out, put her in her stroller and RAN!!!! By the time we got in, we were both sopping. I was wondering what to do, when I looked around the mall and spotted the Regis salon. I went in and begged the girl to let me use her hair dryer and I bought a brush. I was able to dry Lexi's hair and we continued on our adventure. When it was our turn at Kiddie Kandids, the kid would not smile for anything. I was bribing, doing handstand, trying just about anything. She WOULD NOT SMILE!!! I decided to bag it.

I have brought up pictures with her a few times and she is adamant about not going. I am not sure what I am going to do. I guess when she gets older and wants to know why there aren't any pictures of her at three at least I know who to blame it on!!

Once again, I am reminded that I am not really in charge as hard as I try to be!!!
