She didn't know what to think. We were so busy. She didn't get to have one nap the WHOLE DAY.
We went with my Dad and Jennifer and Summer to Trenton for fried chicken, mashed potatoes and mac and cheese. Lexie got to eat before all the food was ready. So by the time the chicken came she was full off mac and cheese and potatoes. She loved all the food though. Lexie was playing with much older kids playing tag. She enjoyed being carried around from place to place. Leah loves to play with her. and Lexie loves the attention. So it worked out perfectly.
Her Lolly and Pops dropped us off at our car just in enough time to rush to pick up Johnny and go to my moms for her thanksgiving Lunch at 3. She was ready for a nap. But I wasn't sure that I wanted her to sleep for the TG dinner at my moms. ESP because I had forgot the camera for the TG at Jenn's moms. So, I get there, put her in her high chair. and feed her some turkey, stuffing, ETC. She ate it. By the time her plate was done and after I got some pictures. I decided I would squeeze a nap in. Before she fell asleep- It was 4 o clock. and I decided to let her go with her Daddy to his parents thanksgiving. He said she didn't sleep there, she ate a little more. and the day was over- at about 8 o clock we got back home. and she PASSED OUT.
Now, Yesterday she slept all night and then that morning I thought she would wake up.. I finally checked on her around 1 and she saw me check on her so she woke up. Only for about five minutes and then she wanted to go back to sleep. She slept til 4 when I woke her up thinking she should be hungry and we went to Lupis with my Mom, Ron, and Ryan. We got there, she hardly ate and FUSSED the WHOLE time. So, after dinner and playing some arcade games we went back to the house and she went RIGHT TO SLEEP and slept the rest of the night. I woke her up this morning before work to change her diaper. I took her to the couch and sat her down. she laid her head down for about 10 minutes. So, I figured its nap time again.
I'm not sure why shes sleeping so much? She had a little bit of a fever yesterday and was really fussy. So, I'm thinking maybe shes getting more teeth and would rather just sleep threw the pain of it. But, I'm really not sure. I cant wait to get back home after work to see how shes feeling. and maybe a surprise tooth?!

14 months old
She is completely off of formula. I haven't given her any since last time I wrote about it. Two nights ago though She woke up at about three in the morning and she was CRYING and wouldn't stop. When I went in there I brought her some juice. I usually try not to do that. But i didn't understand why she was crying, or what I was going to have to do to get her to go back to sleep. After drinking her grape juice she was still crying. So, I let her get out of her crib for a little while because she couldn't seem to fall back asleep. It was a little bit cold so I put her pajamas on her and changed her diaper. I also gave her some baby Tylenol and a teething tablet. thinking maybe its her teeth. She still has only her two bottom teeth. So, I'm assuming that that probably wasn't what was wrong... Who Knows? Maybe she was just cold.
Yesterday when I was giving her a bath she loved the bubbles. She kept putting her face down in the water and getting a bubble mustache and she would Laugh so hard. I was also laughing at her in the beginning. Until I realized after her coughing up the water about the 30th time that she did it - She was also DRINKING the water. She had lots of bubbles in her mouth. It was HILARIOUS. I took some pics and some videos... Just don't have a computer to upload them to.
Last night we stayed the night at my moms house after having a meatloaf and mashed potatoes dinner. Lexie absolutely LOVED the mashed potatoes. I had to get back up 2 times for seconds. and thirds. Also, Lexie's great grandparents came over and ate too. Great Grandma paid her lots of attention. Lexie liked that a lot. ESPECIALLY GOOD Because she doesn't get to see her great grandparents often. Also, Rylee came over to play with her and Ryan.. Lexie always enjoys having friends to play with. And i like it too Because its less work for me to keep her entertained. We had fun. She fell asleep pretty early and slept until at least 10. I was surprised.

walking walking walking
Well, Shes been walking around EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME. Every time she falls down she puts her little hands on the ground and gets back up.
I have been trying to teach her boundaries of where shes is allowed to go. She definitely understands no and stop... But she still likes to test me. After I say no she will stop .. and go back five minutes later and try to do the same thing. She will look back at me to see if I'm paying attention and tell her no.
She has also noticed a little cup that's connected on her high chair that she thinks its funny when she throws food in there. Its the stupidest little invention that a High Chair could have. It basically just teaches them to play with their food. She likes to stick food in it. I try not to make a BIG deal about it to her Because I don't want her to think its something that gets her attention. She will look at me before she does it and I usually try to catch her before and say NO.
Today one of her friends Selena came over. Lexie just doesn't know their supposed to be friends yet. She can definitely tell the age difference between each other. Selena is 10 months old. and Lexie is 13 months. Selena was trying to play with her, she was putting her arm out and touching Lexie with it. And Lexie was getting mad and like pushing her away. They just acted like they didn't like each other. They were both sitting in the floor in my living room crying looking at each other! haha. I DON'T KNOW WHY. I think she needed a nap. But, Selena is like the only baby Lexie knows that is noticeably younger then she is. I guess from all the months of Rylee picking on her- taking her toys... etc. She wanted to have someone to take her place. We will see how that goes in the future though.
Yesterday, I tried giving her a bottle of 100% whole milk. for the first time since I was doing the half formula half milk- She drank it all. So, today I tried it again. So, I am thinking she will be okay without any formula. I will give it a few more days to get totally used to it before I give the rest of her formula away.
I have also noticed, she isn't acting like she really likes her apple juice anymore. when I give it to her she doesn't drink a lot of it. She usually just pushes it away unless shes really thirsty. But the minute she sees a Capri Sun she starts her PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE until she gets to drink some. and when their is a Capri sun around their is NO WAY shes going to drink any apple juice for me. So, last time I went to the grocery store I bought some Grape Juice to see how she would like it. She likes it.. I'm pretty sure that its more expensive though :[

2nd halloween
Halloween morning Lexie had no idea that it was any special occasion. All she cared about doing is sleeping. Every time she cried for me to come get her- 15 mins later she would want to go take a nap- She would sleep about 1/4 the amount she usually does- and then wake up sleepy. So, Basically all she did was take naps until about 6 o'clock. Their was a Trick Or Treat thing at the church down the street that I planned on going to. I was just happy she didn't give me time to put her Halloween costume on before letting me know she wasn't going to the church and she'd rather just stay home and sleep.. So I stayed home impatiently waiting for her to wake up. Once she finally woke up I took her straight to her Uncle Josh's to see all the Halloween decorations that he had put up at the house. and he wanted her to come Trick R Treat at his house.
So, we did. While we were already there we went around the block to a couple neighbors with Kim and Landon. Lexie got the sour fruit punch straws. Lexie and Landon really enjoyed eating that on the way from house to house. After going there I told my mom and Ryan that we would go with them to my Aunts old Neighborhood. We went to the BIG SCARY guy that they do every year. Lexie was VERY SURPRISINGLY the only kid not scared that went in for candy. Ryan wouldn't even go inside near the man along with the 10 kids behind him.
After that we went to the Enclave houses where She Trick R Treated more with Rylee and Landon. I recommend going there : ) Bus, make sure you remember to bring a stroller. Unlike me, Landon fell asleep and didn't leave much room for Lexie so I was stuck carrying her. She had fun. When the people let her pick what she wanted from the bowls she would stand their contemplating on what she was going to get for 15 mins. Sometimes Rylee would have to choose for her. Full day of fun stuff- Sure enough, when we got home at about ten She PASSED OUT. Slept like a baby. So she could wake up and be the wonderful baby that she is.
I hate that the day was over- I guess thats how it feels to buy something that is only good one time.
