Merry Christmas

Christmas Morning!! Rhett wanted to wake her up at 7am, I made him wait until about 7:45, but she was still a bit tired.
Trying to get her to look in the stocking, she still doesn't get the whole opening presents thing yet. maybe next year.

She loves her own "Lexi size" chair.

Santa brought her an Elmo's Restaurant, she's played with in non-stop!

A coup car from Grandma Mary Kay. Another toy I can't get her away from. Her two other cousins her age got the same car, I couldn't get a picture of all three girls in their cars, but trust me, it was so cute.

Christmas Eve

Setting out milk and cookies for Santa!

Opening her Christmas Eve present...Jammies!!

From L to R...Amy, me, Molly, and Sarah (little Jacob on the bottom).

Christmas Eve dinner at my brothers.

OK this one is not on Christmas Eve, but she is in her Christmas dress.

I couldn't get her to hold still in front, so I had to hold her to get a picture with the tree.

Just some random pictures

Nothing special about these pictures, I just think there fun and cute! Her new thing is to put her head right into the cats belly so he'll attack her. She thinks it's the funniest thing in the world, luckily he is very soft with her.
I've been having a hard time getting her to eat anything lately, but at this meal time she out ate me!! I had to take a picture of that.

Every time I open the fridge she climbs in it. She must get that from her dad, cause any one who knows me knows that I will not voluntarily get into something cold.

Lexi in mommy's boots.

Playing in the snow

Even though I'm not too crazy about snow, I thought Lexi would enjoy playing around in it. Little slippery on the trampoline

She loves to swing, so snow and all she she got to swing!

Lots of fun playing in the snow!

Happy Halloween

Her True Side

Lexi's Aunt Tawni and family made her a bunny from Build a Bear, so I wanted to take a nice picture of Lexi with the bunny to give to them. I can never get a good picture of Lexi anymore because every time I get the camera out she wants it, and gets mad if she doesn't get it (as evident in these pictures).

Lexi's new toy!

Call us crazy, but we decided to get Lexi a kitty. We originally went to get just one cat (the white one) but decided to get another one so she'll have a friend.
Ally and Sadie
The cats are very tolerant of Lexi. She "loves" them a little to hard. She likes to pick them up by one leg, or by the neck, she likes to shove them out the kitty door, and she likes to lay on them. They just take it, and the second they can get loose the run for cover. There are good moments too, she is learning to pet "softly", and in this picture Ally let her push her around for a while.


She doesn't just torture them, she'll also play with their toy's with them.

The Next American Idol??

Lexi loves to look in the mirror (yes she's a little vain) and sing and dance. Mostly dance, the singing thing is fairly new. I'll tell her to "shake it" and she'll start dancing...funny girl.

More swimming

Splish Splash!! Having lots of fun this summer in the water!

Cheer leader in training

I handed Lexi some pom-poms I found in my wrapping box (don't ask me why they were in there). I thought she would just try to tear them apart, but she actually started shaking them around.

Not the most enthusiastic cheer leader, but we'll work on it!!

Dress up

I would much rather her want to dress up in something girly, but she wanted to put on Daddy's shirt.

Happy 4TH of July

Well we didn't do anything really exciting for the 4th. We just went over to Grandma Kate's for a visit, and Lexi found a goat puppet (wich she kept calling a puppy) to play with.

After Grandma's house we went over to Rhett's Sister's in-laws house for a BBQ and swimming! Thanks for the party Aunt Tiffy, it was lots of fun!

Lexi with her Dad, cousin Brynn (who is quite the little swimmer), & Aunt Tiff.

Pool time

It's finally warm enough to pull out the pool!!


Her pool seemed a lot bigger last year, probably because she was only 6 months old. We might have to upgrade this year.

Orem Summer Fest

Lexi and Daddy waiting for the Parade to Start!
Sleeping Beauty gave Lexi a sucker

There were all different vehicles that drove through the parade. This truck kept honking, so Lexi got pretty excited. We didn't get the camera out in time to show her most excited moment, but trust me she was loving the honking truck!
