Thanks...a little late!

Its a little late but I still wanted to do a quick post of thanks for Thanksgiving.  We have so much to be thankful for.  Of course, we are thankful for our beautiful Alexis who truly is our little angel on earth.  She brightens our days in a way I can't even explain.  Also, we must thank each of you who read this post.  We are truly grateful for your love, support and prayers.  Our family is blessed to have you in our lives.

Below are some pictures of what Alexis has been up to lately. 

Sitting up for her baths

Swinging on our swingset

Playing in a leaf pile

Getting the hang of a sippy cup

Playing with her toys

Helping mom and dad cook

Still not crawling but finding out how to get around none the less

This hair NEVER goes down.  She's our little Alfalfa

Happy Halloween

I've never been much for Halloween.  I haven't enjoyed dressing up since I was about 10 years old and frankly whenever I had to, all it did was stress me out.  Well I have to say, I think I'm going to like Halloween from now on.  Or at least as long as I have little ones to enjoy it with.  I had so much fun picking out an outfit for Alexis. I contemplated between a cow, monster, pig, hotdog, monkey...they were all cute. I ended up picking a monkey outfit and boy did she look adorable!

Here are some pictures of Alexis in her Halloween costume.  We'll be sharing some professional photos soon! 

Happy, Happy Halloween!!!!!

Half way to Alexis' 1st Birthday

Today Alexis is 6 months old.  Not only is it hard to believe it's already been 6 months but I can hardly believe how much Alexis has changed in such a short time.  She's become such a little person and I see more and more of her dad in her as she grows.  Soon she'll be crawling...walking...talking...growing up entirely too fast.  As I rock her at night and hold her as she sleeps, I find myself wishing time could stand still.  I wish those silent moments, holding my very own miracle, could last forever.  Even though that is all just wishful thinking, it does make me take a step back and enjoy that extra minute of silence....just me and my daughter. 


Below are pictures from this beautiful fall weekend! 
 
Alexis loves to go for walks

She's sitting up on her own...with a little help of course


Alexis is always smiling..she's the happiest baby!

Her way of getting from here to there...by rolling over
