Lexi's First Birthday

We had a birthday party for Alexis this past Saturday and here are some of the photos.

A big thanks to Mollie for being the official birthday photographer!

The birthday girl.







Opening presents.







One of which was her first cell phone.



My aunt, Tracy, made Lexi's birthday shirt.



We got the cake/cupcakes from Fiddle Cakes in Nashville.







Cake time!















Now it's definitely bath time!





All clean!



Her birthday hat came from Stell and Livi on etsy.





Lexi and her Daddy.



Tracy also made her birthday dress from a pattern found at Owly Baby on etsy.

Happy Birthday, Lexi!! We love you so very much!

Happy Birthday, Lexi!

My little baby turns one TODAY! I can't believe it!

I made this clone the day before I gave birth, August 25, 2009:



And this one was made yesterday - exactly a year later:

Had a dehydration scare Saturday night and took Lexi to the ER. All is well, but we did discover she has an ear infection.

I just found these photos that I never posted from May and June. My little baby will turn one in two weeks!

If you've never stared off in the distance, then your life is a shame.

Lots of Lexis

It was past time for another Lexi clone.

Making the decision to have a child is momentous.

It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.

30/52 Summer Days

Summer days mean babies in diapers only. Of course it helps when the diaper is pink and has ruffles on the bum.

When the first baby laughed for the first time...

...its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.
