FINALLY 8 MONTHS

FINALLY 8 months!
She is talking more then ever. She loves to just play happily and hear all the different sounds she can make with her mouth.. She loves to say BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA, MA MA MA MA MA, BA BA BA BA, YA YA YA, But.... still no DADADDADAD. Johnnys a lil bit jealous. So, we have been working with it.
Yesterday we went to a birthday party. Lexie loved the cookie cake, and the ice cream.
Shes just like her MOMMY :)
She always tries to grab stuff and pull up. She loves when anybody will help her stand up and help her get to her destination by walking.
Also, I have always thought that shes not ticklish. But, I was definitely mistaken.... TODAY I tried to tickle her feet and she laughed SO HARD!
MoMMy and daddy started working at a painting job... So I don't get as much time as I would like with Lexie. I miss her while shes gone.. its like a different lifestyle. Its funny.. I felt free when i went to work and didn't have her.. haha. I miss her greatly.
I couldn't ever ask for anything or anyone to come along in my life that makes me happier then she does. :P

ALMOST 8 MONTHS !

She is getting bigger and bigger EVERY DAY!

Yesterday was Rylee's Birthday party and we were practicing more and more with holding her hands and walking around the house. She does it VERY GOOD the past 2 days. And she gets so excited when she stands up on her own. I stood her up and let go of her hands and she stood on her own for at least 3 seconds.. and then fell down. I am practicing it with her more and more.. so we will see what happens! I'm so exited.. shes getting so BIG!

Today I cleaned up her room and reorganized it... Including lowering the bed... so that she cant stand up and fall out.. She was holding onto the top f the bed and would stand up and BUST OUT LAUGHING.. she loved it! It was the cutest thing ever.

FINALLY 7 MONTHS

a walk on the beach

DADDY AND LEXIE RIDING THE MARY GO ROUND :) as u can see. she liked it.. A LOT! .. so much we road it twice in a row !

Lexie .. and her cousin Lacey. went FISHING :)

they were eating lemons. LEXIE KEPT MAKING FUNNY FACES-- But always came back for more :)

Lexie and her friend destiny (2 wks apart)

time to eat the sand??????????????? NOOOOO! but that's what she thought!

Well, I haven't wrote in awhile. I guess because i see her everyday I don't feel like shes really doing anything new.. But I'm sure to other people if they see her.. They would notice how much shes grown and all the stuff that she does now..

She is rolling all around! she does more tummy time.. But she would always rather be sitting or standing. Usually when I'm trying to sit her down she straightens her legs so its hard for me to sit her down. Shes adorable ! I have been trying to practice steps with her. But she doesn't grasp the concept yet. I put her in her walker and she can only walk backwards. Maybe she just needs to fall a couple times to grasp the idea that she needs to step. and get balance on one leg. I try not to always be right beside her and help her do every LITTLE thing... Because I feel like maybe that's why she HATES Tummy time. Because when she would cry I would just turn her over.. I guess a little crying never hurt anyone though.

We went to the beach this month AND SHE LOVED IT! we tried to walk in the sand. So she could feel the beach waves on her feet. I sat her in the sand.. and all she wanted to do was EAT IT.. Idk why she thinks sand tastes good!

She has been around other babies a lot too this month. I am trying to raise her to share. And so far shes done pretty goood :) But sometimes when she wants something she WANTS IT NOW. But usually it only takes her a couple seconds to realize that crying isn't getting her anywhere so she gets over it.

She loves to EAT! she loves ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING THAT I GIVE TO HER. Besides.. juice.. She doesn't seem to care for it that much. She would rather just have a bottle. Maybe I dilute it too much? idk.

She still wont go to the crawling position. The closest that she gets to it is when i sit her down she will put her hands down and attempt to crawl.. But, she doesn't get anywhere with her feet being under her.

She laughs more and more everyday. and doesn't sleep NEARLY as often as she used to. Shes pretty much awake all day long. She takes a couple short naps.. But when its bedtime at night time SHES SO HAPPY TO GO TO SLEEP and she will SLEEP FOR HOURS :)

Shes wonderful :) I'm usually up by 8 anyways. and she gets up after me. usually.
