Happy Birthday Lexi!


The little lady turned 1 on March 9.  I am officially the mom of two toddlers for the next six months.  It is pretty awesome.  

We had a low key birthday celebration with balloons and cupcakes on her actual birthday.  She loved the cupcake and held the whole thing up to her mouth while she gnawed away at it, and when she was done she reached out for more.

The next day we got ready for a little party at my parents house.  
She licked the beater with chocolate whipped cream,

opened a few presents (with some help from brother),

blew out the candle (with some more help from brother),

and LOVED her first piece of chocolate cake.

We set up a makeshift studio in our house on her birthday to get some good birthday shots.  She loves to make this face with her cute little mouth.

At her one year check up she was in the 50th percentile for weight, 71st for length, and 99th for head circumference.  The Dr. says that means she has a big brain.  :)

We are pretty crazy about his little girl and are so grateful that Heavenly Father sent her to our house to live.
