she can walk down the steps now ?!

Well. someone stole my laptop. So I guess no more pictures for awhile :( that's the worst thing about any of it- all her pictures-- are gone. So depressing. All my videos of her- GONE :'(
At least I have one picture a month from the portrait studios. I knew their was a reason that I did that. I'm so sad. Some people are just so pathetic these days. I guess they can have fun with their broken laptop and pictures of my daughter. Next, They might fall in love with her and want to come back for her. I would definitely have to kill someone. Good thing is I might have gotten his name from all of this? Hopefully the cops want to do something about it.

Other then that, she luckily stayed with Jennifer last night and missed everything. She came back today and went STRAIGHT TO SLEEP. I'm sure she was tired from all the fun she had. I get her back and she fully knows how to go down steps standing up. Before she was LIL MISS CLIMBER- But was stuck going down. HA. But shes got it down.

I wish I had some pictures to update. I will have to do something about this.. and soon. :(

We carved pumpkins. I had woken her up to do it- and she didnt get really into it. I really should have just let her sleep. She was sleeping so good too. I got some pics. But no smiles still. So, I am sure that I will have to do some more of her and the pumpkin when she's in a little of a better mood.

LEXIES LOVELY DRS VISIT

Well, she had her 1 yr Dr visit. When we got there we waited in the waiting room for a hour. Lexie kept wanting to crawl all over the nasty floor. I kept telling her no and brought her on the carpeted area with a toy. She was enjoying walking back and fourth from me to her toy.
We finally get called back to a room and we sit there another hour without the Dr coming back. By this point.. LEXIE IS FLIPPING OUT. She totally didn't like the idea of being in a room for a hour. She didn't understand what was taking the Dr so long.. She is SCREAMING on the top of her lungs for a straight hour. The nurses kept coming to our room and closing the door. They came in several times saying we were next. We weren't next...
She was making herself sick. Couldn't be healthy. I was holding her in the sink just in case.
Lexie, SCREAMING and ROLLING around was sleepy and just wanted to go home and get in her crib. I have never seen her flip out so bad in her ENTIRE life. She was on the patient table and was rolling around throwing a temper tantrum and she banged her head on the wall. She then starts crying more- And, now has a BIG bruise on her cheek. :(
The Dr finally comes in- I cant even here anything the Dr is telling me. Then, the nurse comes and gives Lexie her shots... she was so upset already that I don't think the shots could have made her any more mad then she already was.
After it was all over I was rescheduling my appointment and they had a jar of Lolly pops. Lexie usually LOVES lolly pops so I thought maybe I could cheer her up and give her one. She didn't even want one. She was very upset. Fell RIGHT asleep on the car ride home. .

Lexie stayed with Josh for a couple hours while I bought a pumpkin for her to help us carve? We are supposed to carve pumpkins with Amber and Rylee tonight when I get off work. So, if all goes as planned, Lexie will be learning what the inside of a pumpkin feels like.. HA. I'm sure she will try to eat the seeds.

Today when I was leaving for work I gave Lexie a kiss on the forehead and said I love you and Bye Bye. She didn't like the idea. I had to rush out the door hearing her cry MAMA :( I miss her already. I hope she has LOTS of fun with her Daddy today.

WALKING ? AHH!

Yesterday all day she chose to try to walk EVERYWHERE she went. Shes NOT afraid to try. And shes so excited after she makes it without falling :) She usually takes 2-4 steps at a time and then falls. Growing up so fast. Although, I am pretty ready for it. VERY ready to not have to scrub her knees all the time. Not so ready to have to chase her.. AHH... This will happen very soon I'm sure.. She has became a lot more confident in being a BIG GIRL I think.

I'm not sure if I have written it in her blog but her Best friend Rylee- every time she sees her she gets really excited and says BOBBY! hahaha. I think its just close. and She cant say Rylee yet. were working on it though :)

Today we are at my dads. Lexie is going with her LOLLY and AUNTIE SUMMER to the fair. I am sure they will have a lot of fun... WISH I COULD BE THERE TOO : )

No more words really yet. More Jibber Jabber. Sometimes she sounds like shes talking in Chinese. ha. We have been working on saying Ducky. Because she plays with her rubber ducky in the bathtub and one of her toys she got for her birthday has a ducky on there that quacks. She enjoys playing with that also. In the bathtub she couldn't say DUCKY. Then, I squeezed out the ducks water and said Ducky's going PEE PEE and she said PEE PEE and laughed. She thought that was VERY FUNNY.

taking steps.

She is standing at long periods of the time ALL THE TIME NOW. She will just let go of something and stand there for like 30 seconds at a time by herself. Then give up and fall down. She has also started attempting to take steps. When she is like standing up on something - and wants to come to me she will step about 2 steps at a time to get wherever she may want to come. So, I am excited.

Yesterday I had amber and Jake over and we were trying to watch a movie. The kids had a late night- Rolling all over the couch sleepily trying to get comfortable. They never did fall asleep. I thought it would have been a cute picture... I bought her a new pink fluffy pillow for her room and I laid her and Rylee down with Lexie's Blanket that she LOVES so much. Their so sweet.

I also bought Lexie a CD with FUN songs and rhymes on it. ALL KINDS OF GOOD BABY MUSIC. Shes in the living room right now dancing to I LIKE TO EAT EAT EAT APPLES AND BANANAS.

She also has been learning how to do flips herself. She will put her head down and try to flip over- She hasn't gotten the flip over process down by herself yet though. She also has been attempting to stand by herself. She looks so funny. She will be standing completely up with her hands touching the floor. haha. SHES HILARIOUS.

Also something that she has started to do is When I see her getting into something that she probably shouldn't be and I say NO or take it away from her.. She will Get the sweetest LIL voice and say MOMMY? haha. So sweet. I don't give in although she makes it VERY tempting.
