Lexie's Dedication

Busy Mommy, Busy Baby

So, I'm obviously behind on blogging; things have been extremely busy lately. While I've been absent from blogger; Lexie's been growing and changing daily. She walks around all the furniture daily now and can pull herself up in her crib and play yard. She has even said "yes" and "no" in the last few weeks!

Here are a few of the pictures from her dedication; she wore this beautiful black and white dress with the princess skirt and looked so pretty! It was a beautiful day and Mom even got to be here to see it! She was so good and even patted Pastor when he lifted her up!

Our Pretty Little Lady!

Getting Ready for Church

Isn't she pretty? I love this outfit; the leopard jacket coordinates so awesome with the pants and the shirt has the paw print on it to match! Her hair is getting so long also. She looked so cute and got compliments from everyone!

Poor thing had an ear infection this week; I was hoping she would be older before we had to give her an antibiotic, but both ears were infected and so it was a necessity. She is starting to feel better and getting back to her old self.

Grandma Nancy is coming in tomorrow - we are so excited for her to see how big Lexie is! This Sunday is her dedication at church. We will be sure to take pictures and post them for everyone who isn't able to be here; we love and miss you all!

She's a Cutie!

Our Pretty Little Lady

As you can see, Lexie is getting really good at standing up and getting around! She wore her Atlanta Falcons dress to church today (below is a picture of her with her furry hat, which she left on for a little while after coming inside).

She is getting smarter and smarter; it's like she gains new skills and abilities every day! We were saying that it seems like she goes to bed thinking about what she's going to do the next day and then wakes up doing something she's never done before without even thinking about it!

As many of you know, she had her nine month appointment this week; 18 pounds, 5 ounces (40th percentile) and 28 inches (70th percentile). The doctor was amazed at some of the things she is able to do at her age and said she is so advanced in some of the social things that we will "have our hands full", but we already knew that! Her caretakers at childcare have also been amazed at her memory - they said they've never seen a baby who remembers where they are going when they take her in a certain direction before!

She got invited to her first birthday party this week (another Lexy) and it is causing us to have to start thinking about what we will do to celebrate her first birthday. Only three months away! It is hard to believe she is growing up so quickly!

Getting into Everything!

Ripping, Spilling, Crawling and Falling

So I was on our pediatrician's website a few weeks ago and was looking ahead at the well child care handouts for Lexie's nine month visit (coming up this Thursday). I laughed when I read "Taking care of a nine month old is quite exhausting. Be sure to get plenty of rest." She isn't lying!

Lexie is getting around really well, crawling and standing up holding onto furniture (and of course falling occasionally). She loves ripping up magazines and today she got the top off of her teething tablets and dumped them out. She loves banging toys together to make noise as well as hitting our faces over and over. She has also discovered that she can drop things and loves it (no more holding Mommy's phone)!

I started moving her into 12 month sized clothing this week. Some of it is still a little big but she is definitely getting too big for her 9 month stuff ! Her front bottom teeth have poked through; as soon as I can get some good pictures of them I will post some.

She is definitely a busy little lady!
