Sunny Days


Lexi and I went for our daily walk this morning with Mariah and along the way we hit our motherload rummage sales. Mommy had to stop as she could have bought out ahead so far, as there were many cute things and in great shape. We ended up buying mom a stylish diaper bag and Lexi a few hats, winter coats (for a few years down the road), little red shoes, black dress shoes, tennis shoes, a swimsuit for next summer and a few winter outfits for down the road. Although it was warm, we went at 8 a.m. Yesterday we went shopping at the mall with Erika and Miss Charlotte. Mommy didn't find any good deals for a summer dress that fit her so I'm sure we will go out again sometime in the near future.

My Basketball girl


Lexi made it to her first basketball game tonight. We went to watch the middle schoolers play and Lexi showed no interest. Hmm...we'll have to work on that. Lexi is growing by the minute, she seems huge to me, but know she still is just a little pipsqueak. She is starting to talk and has been such a good little girl, even with the spit ups all over mommy. Very alert and watching everything around her. We have been walking with our neighbor during the week. Trying to shed these last 15 pounds.....once I get running they will melt off, right?? Well, Daddy is watching Lexi right now, but it sounds like he is building a shelf instead, so I'm going to go rescue her.

1 month!


YIPEE! It is hard to believe that Lexi is 1 month old today! We have been adjusting, but the past two weeks it has been hard. She is fighting falling asleep during the day, fussy when she is awake and spitting up all the time. We walked to Walgreens yesterday and picked up some Mylicon, next step is Gripe water then to Zantax. We went to Babys R Us this week and she did great. Slept the whole time of course as she needs movement. She reminds me when the cart stops by screaming out. I threw her in the sling and tried to do some weeding, which posed a little difficult, but she fell asleep. We also took a walk around the block in the sling last night.


Wednesdays we go to Mommy Class, which brings some sanity for mom. If Lexi isn't screaming, another baby is....but atleast we can commiserate together. I get lots of ideas and even more reassurance. We made our first long trip to Wausau last weekend. We had to stop to feed along the way, but she was a peach. We'll try to post today's pictures (this was from Wed.) if Lexi cooperates, or at the very least, more from Wed. :)
